7.10.3 Creating a New Alignment
An alignment is a set of data that can be used to describe and determine the
exact location of a road centerline. It describes the whole road in terms of
elements of the road, including starting point, straight line, curve and spiral.
Create horizontal and vertical road alignment les with the basic eld software
and upload them onto the instrument.
Alternatively, horizontal and vertical road alignments can be created onboard
the instrument.
