vaibhavsehgal36 Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 Is there anyway to scale an existing object to 1:1 scale? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReMark Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 Sure. Do you know what one dimension on the object is supposed to be? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vaibhavsehgal36 Posted March 25, 2017 Author Share Posted March 25, 2017 Sure. Do you know what one dimension on the object is supposed to be? No I don't know any one dimension. I just got a site plan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReMark Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 Well you better find something to use as a reference. Is there a building on the property? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIGAL Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 Like Remark go back to who supplied it to you and ask for at least one measurement like property frontage. If you can access a nearmap image that is georeferenced you could use that for scale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tombu Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 Keep in mind drawings are often purpose driven. With no scale or dimensions provided it may simply be conceptual and not even drawn to scale. I've created drawings from GIS data for preliminary estimates that were different once survey work was performed and we had accurate data to work with. Those preliminary estimates help explain to residents why requests may not be cost effective. If you want a drawing for a different purpose request it, if you try to extract info that's not there you cannot blame what goes wrong afterwards on anyone but yourself.
