1) The Roadway Modeler will not run along an alignment that contains a discontinuity and jump in stationing. In this situation, the Roadway Modeler will feedback an error message that it cannot process at a station that falls within the discontinuity. The modeler needs to track along all of the alignment stations when it is running the roadway. If it fails to find a particular station along its modeling interval that it is expecting to find, the roadway run will completely fail and nothing will be stored in the DTM. If the stationing is continuous across the gap ending at a certain station and then picking back up on that station on the other side of the discontinuity, then the Roadway Modeler will run and the features and subsequent triangulation will jump across the gap. This is not really a recommended situation to model unless you are very proficient with surfaces. (pg. 569) |
