Abstract

In the survey of municipal roads, cross-section data extraction is one of the common interior work tasks. During the analysis of collected cross-section data, the data usually needs to be measured one by one by the interior staff through AutoCAD software, and there are problems of low work efficiency, large workload, and error-prone data. This paper uses AutoLISP language to carry out secondary development of program in AutoCAD software, and it realizes that the cross-section points on the cross-section line in the map could output with full-automation into cross-section data format of three rows per group, avoiding manual and repeated measurement and trouble input process. The practice has proven that this method effectively improves the efficiency and data quality of interior work, and it can also extract and output various cross-section data formats with minor modifications to the program.
