  TopoGX - 2D to 3D DXF Converter
  TopoGX is a high quality software application which can intelligently convert a 2D DXF drawing into a useful 3D DXF drawing. It is intended for surveyor produced drawings, but is equally suited to any 2D drawing where the Z levels are represented as text items.

Additionally TopoGX contains a powerful triangulation engine which can produce a constrained delaunay triangulation (viewable surface) of the 3D drawing almost instantaneously.
   
  Automatic 2D to 3D DXF Conversion
 
  • Single button conversion - total automation
  • Numeric text items are converted to Z levels.
  • The X,Y point for each Z level is intelligently determined.
  • The X,Y point may be assigned to a cross, block insert or line end.
  • 2D arcs are converted to curved 3D polylines.
  • Z levels are assigned to line and polyline features wherever appropriate.
  • Automatic detection of block inserts which are suitable for level assignment.
  • Automatic reasonable level range creation will filter out incorrect levels.
  • Automatic level interpolation along polylines where levels may be missing.
  • The 3D lines and polylines are used as constraints for the surface triangulation.
  • Can handle huge datasets - 100,000's of points is no problem.
  • Very fast - 5 seconds is a typical complete conversion time.
  2D Viewer
 
  • Easy navigation of DXF in PLAN with tools to Zoom, Pan, Window and Centre your drawing.
  • 3D Height Colouring shades your converted DXF Surface according to level.
  • Colour shading enables quick and easy site appraisal.
  3D Viewer
 
  • Google Earth style navigation allows easy movement around your 3D DXF.
  • Clear Surface shows your DXF instantly and allows quick viewing of any survey errors
  Drawing Editor
 
  • Contains a simple set of DXF Tools to insert/edit 2D/3D Points.
  • Breakline/Constraint tool allows insertion of contraints into your DXF where original data may have been missing or incorrect.
