I have a CAD file which was a GIS topography file which I converted to CAD, I open in Rhino, But can not seem to create a topographic surface. I tried "Loft" which i assumed would be the best way, but did seem to best option. Does anyone know a command or a procedure that would aid in this - maybe some type of mesh command....
Antithenes,
I loaded the Rhinoterrain plugin, but can find any command or tools to operate this command. Could not finay any instructions on how to use it.. Do you know how to use it

Topography from CAD to Rhino?

Thanx in Advance.
There is not an easy way to make a >meshfrompoints that creates a predictable result with a point cloud
I would try and >edgesrf it in CAD first....but i am not sure what the file specifics are..
also...REVIT has a fuction that will take imported "survey points" file and make a topo form it....
I was thinking of using sandbox on sketchup then import it to cad....
I mean to rhino
"patch" should do it.
I have heard sandbox works, but watch fo how you import it.. might get unexpected traingulation etc.
the >commandhelp in RHINO is pretty elaborate about how to import files from .skp etc.
Use the Rhinoceros terrain Plugin it was made for this purpose
www.rhinoterrain.com
Thanx Everyone, I will try Patch...and I will also try rhinoterrain..
thanks for the link Antithenes...
about sketch up...it imports pretty smoothly with the plugins provided from the rhino labs....
