Site Contours

My site contours are way so high up.

 

I imported this dwg file to Revit. It was the usual, contour lines plotted on 3D (not flat) ranging from 275' to 280' from 0,0,0, reflecting the true elevation as what the topo label says.

 

But in Revit, the topo surface that was generated from it, its contours are so way high up, something like 3,300'+ from the 1st Floor Level established as my Place At insertion level.

 

What happened?

Check that the units are the same in the DWG as they are in your Revit project. It could be that the DWG is in feet and in Revit you are using millimetres.

You're right. I checked that the height has exactly 12 times difference. The units used in Revit is in feet while the units used in AutoCAD is in inches. Thanks.
