Hmmm... I thought about doing it the way you suggest. I will have to try it to see how it works. Testing required1 :-)

I think a lot would depend on how the survey shots are laid out. I think it would require several survey stations around each column. The scrap boundaries would then be the surveyed line between adjacent columns. And I suspect there would be a very large number of explicit line joins.

Some adjustment, of course, since the columns are not laid out in a regular grid. There would be some triangular scraps.

Would it work better to set a survey station in the center of an intersection and then do splay shots to the columns? Or set the stations on the columns?

For this case, though, that will not work.  There are no passages in this mine.  Think of a large room in a building with support columns in the middle.


You have to change your mindset. It *is* a series of passages. They are just very short before reaching the next junction. And just like if you were surveying a cave passage 100 metres wide and 50 metres long, you have to draw the walls, and close the gaps between them with an outline. See attached (case 3).
