The chainage of the start point of a line can be defined.
Lines and points defining the lines can be read from the design job using the
active coordinate system. For this reason, the coordinate system in the design
job must match the active one in the job.
If using TS, select the <None> or a local grid coordinate system.
If using GS, a local grid coordinate system must be used. Working in WGS84
coordinates is not supported. Measured WGS84 coordinates are converted to
grid using the active coordinate system.
It is possible to use a valid coordinate system, but have the line or part of it
lying outside the projection or CSCS model being used.
In these cases, the field values relating to the difference in coordinates
between the design point and current position are shown as -----.
Azimuth is used throughout this chapter. This term should also always be con-
sidered to mean Bearing.
The following diagram shows the direction of positive and negative values for
distance and height differences between the design point and the measured
point.

Description
Refer to Infinity Online Help.
Using the Design to Field tool of Infinity, you
are able to bring in lines from multitudes of
formats. For example, XML, DXF, Microstation
XML and many more. Refer to Infinity Online
Help for information on Design to Field.
