After loading “NAVIATE_Point” family into project, the user has two (2) simple options for placing Points in the model:

 

  1. Manually place NAVIATE Points.
    • Simply place instances around your project from: Project Browser >> Families menu >> Generic Models menu >> NAVIATE_Point family.


  1. Nest the NAVIATE Point Family into other families you desire to obtain NAVIATE Point location data. 
    • NAVIATE Points can be constrained/locked to your family allowing them to be Parametric and relative to locations of your family instances. 
    • Once NAVIATE Point family has been loaded into a Family, place instances of NAVIATE Point at the location(s) you want to extract data. 
    • Load the family(s) back into the model
      • When prompted with the Overwrite options, select Overwrite the existing version. 

 

 

    • Continue to place family instances with nested NAVIATE_Point family if applicable.


After placing Points manually and/or embedding Points into the necessary families, running the Total Station Export to CSV command will export desired Point locations relative to all your family instances.
