This involves two tasks. First, the model data is exported from the Smart Build Insight project to a COE file. That COE file is then imported into the TruView project, where it is combined with the job site scan.

Export model data from Smart Build Insight to a COE file

  1. Click TruView ICON left nav - TrueView.

  2. On the TruView panel, click the Model view tab.

  3. Choose export options based on the model data you want to export.

    To export model data for this

    Choose this

    The fully-completed project

    All

    All the work that should have been completed by a certain date

    By planned date, then enter the date

    All the work that was completed by a certain date

    By actual date, then enter the date

  4. Click Export to COE.

  5. Give the file to the surveying contractor.

Import the COE file into TruView

This task is usually done by your surveying contractor. He or she:

  • Imports the COE file into the TruView project

  • Correlates the model element and scan data

  • Lets you know that the updated scans are ready for import into Smart Build Insight

If you need to do this yourself, make sure that:

  • You import the COE file into the TruView project associated with the Smart Build Insight project.

  • The model elements are set to use the same coordinate system as the scan.

See the TruView help for instructions on using that software.
