Hello,
I am attempting to split Revit terrain with imported .DWG polylines. Is there a way to do this without Python or Design Script?
I import my .DWG with ‘file path’ and convert to ‘importObject.ConvertToGeometry’.
This get the polylines, but how can I split the topo?
One way is to convert the topo to a mesh, split, and convert the mass to polysurface with ‘Topo from points’.
As I am creating roads, when I create the topography, I am not getting clean edges that I would get if I split the geometry natively in Revit. I have many roads, so this is not how I want to do it.
Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for your advice,
I am actually looking to split the topo in dynamo rather than project the Crvs onto the topo.
Splitting the topo would be ideal so that I can insert flat roads modeled in another software. (See Attached).
I want to do this is so that I can quickly update the Revit model topo if I change the roads as there are so many and it takes much too long to cut them manually with REvit’s ‘split surface’.
(See Attached) I tried cutting the topo after I converted it to a mesh with the mesh toookit, but that is not working. Furthermore, I don’t think that I would be able to create separate topos after the conversion from mesh to topoFromPts.
Is this possible? Or are the topography editing capabilities of Dynamo not developed yet?
I am fairly certain this will only be doable with some python efforts.
One Node only method is to split the geometry using a solid.
This still results in a little bit of “Manual Labour” removing the automatic Revit Topography edge closure errors (not sure a way around this, possibly bump up the reference points…)
Should be something to start from

Amazing.
Sorry for the late response (was logged into my work account and didn’t see this).
Thanks for sharing, this is fantastic. Nice work!
