jcaffee Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 Has anybody had success using SketchUp Geo-location > Export as *.dae or *.kmz > GPSBabel conversion > import to CA as terrain? I keep coming up blank, so there's some obvious user error. Anybody? jon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zowie123 Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 Would love to know the answer to this as well, please let me know if you've found an answer. I'm sure it would take many conversions. I've had good success importing 3ds and seating it into the house, but that's it. Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcrump Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 Jon, I think Scott hosted a go-to-meeting on this a few months ago, and I think a video was made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcaffee Posted June 25, 2015 Author Share Posted June 25, 2015 They just imported a symbol. I'm trying to do terrain data via a GPS import. I guess I should go watch the video again incase I missed something. jon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VisualDandD Posted June 26, 2015 Share Posted June 26, 2015 Why do the gps conversion? You can bring the data in correct just as we went over in the workshop. Of course....it is only as good as the Google data. Generally lidar over populated areas. Pretty decent, but I always import site done topo models for difficult sites.

jcaffee Posted June 26, 2015 Author Share Posted June 26, 2015 Why do the gps conversion? Because I want to import reasonably accurate terrain data. I guess what I'm after is anybody who uses GPSBabel to do terrain data translations. http://www.gpsbabel.org/ jon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
