Project Submission Guidelines

We have created these guidelines to help get your projects into OnStation quicker.

 

Provide Coordinate Systems

Let us know what coordinate system was used to design the project. This will ensure your alignment layer is displayed in the correct location in the app.

• Need to specify scale factor and other transformations if applicable.
• Make sure the files submitted have been drawn in the coordinate system.
  
  

Submit Alignments w/ Stationing

Our Automatic Station Finder only works if we are provided with the correct information to reference. File types include:

• Recommended: LandXML (alignments only, no surfaces) **fastest turnaround time** 
• ALG (Open Roads)
• DGN, DWG, DXF
• KML/KMZ (Not a converted CAD file)
• Project plans that show the alignment control and geometry. **could be longer than 2 weeks**
  Reference sheet number including alignment geometry details

Submit CAD design drawings, Google Earth, and Esri maps to view Project Layers

Our Design Layers & Maps are very beneficial to reference while on a project.  File types include:

• Recommended: DWG, DGN, DXF
• KML/KMZ (Not a converted CAD file)
• SHP

 

Submit any project document including plan sets, line item lists, specifications, and standard drawings

Our Project Library eliminates the hassle of carrying around plans on the job. This means no more worrying about referencing papers while on a jobsite that has unexpected weather conditions. ☔⚡❄️🌪️🌞
