I tried to generate a topo from a set of plines that where draw in auto cad at the correct elevation and found that revit is triangulating some the geometry completely wrong. I have tried to clean up the autocad file and join the p-lines but still get a lot of strange points that do not relate to the draw autocad topo lines. I was wondering if it would be best to trace over the autocad file with the point tool, or is there specific setting under the site setting menu that should be used. My topo lines are representing a 1'-0" elevation change. I attached the auto cad file and and a view generated from the revit file. Please advise.

I dont think you attached the DWG file. The topography tool usually works pretty well from imported DWG data. Are you sure that the DWG file is pretty clean ie. there are no stray entities anywhere. Another thing to try is, when you are creating your topography, make sure you only select the layers that contain your contour data. Brett

Maybe try to play around the site setting but resetting your contour line interval as for it to reflect better on your site modelling...I was experiencing some problems with the display of the site modelling and once I reset some of the setting there, it turns out ok...Properly this is the some cases as your contour line is just 1'-0" elevation differences
