Any points that are not assigned to a point group appear in the Unclassified
Points group. For more information on working with ungrouped points, see
Working with Survey Points (page 1005).
You can add a new point group to a survey, remove a point group from a
survey, rename a survey, or remove a survey from a project. You can also view
and edit survey properties in the
Survey Properties dialog box (page 1893). You
cannot create a new survey in AutoCAD Map 3D. Surveys are created by
external surveying hardware and software, and must be imported to your
survey data store in a LandXML file.
NOTE Survey data is a particular type of geospatial data. You cannot use survey
functionality for drawing objects.
