Alignment Object

<The "Alignment" object is used to define the alignment of a road or bridge.

• Station: The station of the starting point of the alignment.

• Azimuth: The angle that the initial alignment makes with North, expressed in radians. Zero azimuth corresponds to North (optional).

• Latitude: Defines the starting point of the route based on the X axis (optional).

• Longitude: Defines the starting point of the route based on the Y axis (optional).

• Elevation: Defines the starting point of the route, together with Latitude and Longitude. It is also known as the elevation.

Example Syntax:

...
<O T="Alignment">
...
...
</O>

Example:

<O N="AlignmentObject1" T="Project" Category="3D Geometric Objects" TransAlignRule="Right">
    <!-- created by ParamML Examples on 02.02.2023 -->
    <O N="Route" T="Alignment" Station="300" Azimuth="PI/2" Lat="0" Lng="0" Elev="1000" />
    <O T="Line" Alignment="Route">
        <O T="Point" X="0" Y="0" Z="0" />
        <O T="Point" X="10" Y="0" Z="0" />
    </O>
</O>

"Route" object contains Alignment parameters. To view this example in the library, see (https://openbrim.org/platform/?application=inc&author=ParamML_Examples_OpenBrIM+Platform&folder=3D+Geometric+Objects&obj=objidzt0qdokk0eb0dh0pmbh8p)
