Sorry I have not been working with AutoDesk3D, however found following posting on 

docs.autodesk.com

Use the convert Land Desktop Points command to convert AutoCAD Land Desktop points in a drawing to AutoCAD Civil3D points.

When you use AutoCAD Civil3D to open a drawing that contains Land Desktop points, you can run this utility to perform the conversion.

Before converting the points, you can use the Convert Autodesk Land Desktop Points dialog box to set a variety of point settings. For example, you can set default layers, point creation settings, and more. For more information, see Configuring Land Desktop Point Settings.

You can automatically add the converted points to a newly created point group or to an existing point group. The existing AutoCAD Civil3D point number and point name conflict resolution rules are used if a point ID conflict occurs during the conversion.

To convert Land Desktop points

  1. Home tab  Create Ground Data panel  Points menu  Convert Land Desktop Points to display the Convert Autodesk Land Desktop Points dialog box.
  2. Configure point setting parameters by expanding the parameter, selecting a setting, then specifying a new value in the Value column.
  3. To assign the Land Desktop points to a point group, select Add Points To Point Group, then choose a point group from the list or create a new point group. If you create a new point group, it is added to the Add Points To Point Group list.
  4. To keep the existing layers referenced by the Land Desktop points, select Preserve Original Point Layer. Note

    When this check box is checked, the existing layer of the Land Desktop point is assigned to the AutoCAD Civil3D point when it is converted. If the Points Creation\\Disable Description Keys setting is set to False, and the Land Desktop point matches a description key, the original point layer will still be preserved.

  5. Click OK.
