Hello,

To start with, I have a shapefile of gps positions (sucession of points, with X Y Z data) of hundreds of kilometers of road

and I'd like to know if it possible with ArcGis 10 to determine the radius of each curvature.

Do I have to converts those points into lines in order to have a curve ? Or is there a way to calculate a curvature from points ?

And then determine the radius of each curvature ?

I hope I will be able to find the help I need here because I'm lost.

Thank you
