Export to SHP Tool

OpenRoads Designer can export geometry features and survey features to *.shp files. It supports points, polylines, and polygons in both 2D and 3D. It strokes the arcs, spirals, 3D profiles, and so on and it splits the export into multiple files if different geometry types are selected (name_points.shp, name_polylines.shp, name_polygons.shp; *.shp files only support a single type of geometry per file).
