  • Angles: defines how the angle is visualized.

    • Centesimal (gon): the angles are visualized as centesimal angle in gon.

    • Decimal (0-360): the angles are visualized as sexagesimal angles in degrees.

    • DD°MM’SS.ssss: the angles are visualized as sexagesimal angles in degrees, minutes and seconds.

  • Azimuth mode: defines how the azimuth is visualized.

    • Standard: the azimuth is visualized as standard angle from reference meridian.

    • Bearing: the azimuth is visualized as bearing. A bearing is the clockwise or counterclockwise angle between north or south and a direction.

  • Distances: to select the unit for distances.

    • Meters: distances are visualized in meters.

    • Millimeters: distances are visualized in millimeters.

    • Feet (Intern.): distances are visualized in international foot.

    • Feet (US): distances are visualized in US survey foot.

    • Feet fract. (Intern.): distances are visualized in international fractional foot and inches.

    • Feet fract. (US): distances are visualized in US survey fractional foot and inches.

  • Slopes: defines how the slopes are visualized.

    • Percentage (%): slopes are visualized in percentage.

    • Angles: slopes are visualized with the slope angle.

    • Ratio (height:base): slopes are visualized as ratio between the height and the base.

    • Ratio (base:height): slopes are visualized as ratio between the base and the height.

  • Stations: defines the visualization of increasing stationing on an alignment.

    • Standard: the stationing is visualized with the standard distance unit selected.

    • X+YYY.ZZZ: the stationing is visualized as X+YYYY.ZZZ, for example 10123.478m means station is 10+123.478m.

    • 20m+YY.ZZZ: the stationing is visualized as 20m+YY.ZZZ, for example 10123.478m means station is 10120+3.478m.

  • Lat.de/Long.de: defines the visualization of latitude and longitude.

    • DD°MM’SS.ssss: the latitude and longitude angles are visualized as sexagesimal angles in degrees, minutes and seconds.

    • Decimal (0-360): the latitude and longitude angles are visualized as sexagesimal angles in degrees.
