In this lesson, you’ll learn how to manage and edit surfaces using the Surface Manager. Surfaces are essential for representing terrain, elevations, and topographic features, and the Surface Manager gives you the tools to control them with ease.

We’ll begin by showing you how to tag or untag a surface, allowing you to control which surfaces are active for viewing, editing, or generating deliverables like contours and profiles.

Next, you’ll learn how to edit a surface using two simple methods:

  1. Double-clicking the surface in the Surface Manager

  2. Right-clicking the surface object directly in the drawing

These options let you quickly access surface properties and make updates to points, boundaries, and surface settings.

By the end of this lesson, you’ll be able to confidently manage your surfaces and make the edits necessary to refine your survey data and drawings.
