How do I convert a TransCad highway network into a Cube highway network?
To export a network from TransCad to Cube, follow these steps: 1) Open your network in TransCad. Make sure it is selected as the target layer in the map view toolbar. 2) Go to “Dataview > Formula Fields…” in the menu to open the Formula dialog. 3) Click on the “Node Fields…” button to open the Node Formula Fields dialog. 4) Under “Choose one or more node fields” you will see a list of fields associated with the nodes in your network. One of these (usually ID) contains your unique node numbers. Select it from the list. Under “Option” select “Both” and hit the OK button. 5) The Dataview for your network should now include the “From ID” and “To ID” node fields, which are equivalent to Cube/Voyager A and B nodes. You can verify this by opening the Dataview to look at the attribute table. 6) To export your data, go to “Tools > Export…” in the menu to open the “Export highways/Streets Geography” dialog. Under “Export” select “All features,” and under “To” select “ESRI Shape.” Make sure
