Ive been trying to load a cad topo file into revit...and ive goten it to load (ive tried both import cad origin to origin and link cad)....however the topo loads up ALOT smaller then it should, about 10 times smaller...is there any way to make the topo itself bigger?  ive tried scaleing but that doesnt seem to work

THANK YOU!

It is probably outside of your view range.. Go to an elevation and you will see where it is in relationship to our first floor level
