My first post here. I want to read the terrain elevation data from a SOSI fil. This is the official (and only) file type the Norwegian Mapping Authority supports. Since Chief Architect doesn't read this file type, I need to convert this to DXF or DWG. But I have so far not succeeded.
Then I stumbled over a video that showed how to import a terrain map from pdf. It explained how to import, how to cut unnecessary areas, then resize it to the correct scale, set a North marker, and finally add the elevation to the lines on the drawing.
All very exciting ... but then I can't remember the URL of the video .
Is there anybody that could point me in the right direction, either the video, or another tutorial that covers this? Many thanks in advance.
