This command is particularly useful to obtain longitudinal profiles in ASCII format from a longitudinal profile represented on the drawing or from a polyline representing the profile.
If a longitudinal profile drawn with MDT is selected, the program will automatically detect it. It will then request the file in which one wishes to save the data, though previously it will request the initial and final stations of the new profile to be generated for the possibility of selecting it on the same drawing.
On the contrary if we select a polyline, MDT will need some additional data to generate the longitudinal profile from it. In a data window it will request the Horizontal Scale, Vertical Scale, Initial Station and Final Station Height, and then the same process as in the case of selecting a profile drawn with MDT.
In both cases, the file generated will have the .LON extension.
