TopoNotes is a program designed to import ASCII survey data and add it to a drawing per the INDOT standards. The program automatically spaces the text in tight areas and when it cannot fit the note, it offsets it and colors it red. Currently written for Inroads a Civil 3D version is in the works.
This project involved the creation of custom standards and styles used to control the way that InRoads generates elements for models and drawings Setting up these styles required gathering and understanding the requirements of both the drafting and the engineering staff and required constant communication to ensure the end goal of streamlining project production.
Developed an automated routine to convert a very large drawing base to a format which would work with Serraview. This assignment involved a large amount of computational geometry and was programmed in c#.net. I also served as an advisor on ways to reduce or eliminate custom code from the upgraded Triregga document management System.
