Hi
I am totally new to Blender and I only get a grey image when rendering (Blender/Cycles) using 2.78c. It is a very basic model, only containing a few arcs. They are created using FME and imported from SHP (EPSG 3006) files using https://github.com/domlysz/BlenderGIS. Any suggestions on what I am missing? Model attached.
Best regards,
Magnus

Two big things.
One, the scale of the scene is huge. You’ve set the grid scale way up, but that doesn’t translate to other settings. You need to crank up the far clipping in the camera properties.
Two, bare edges don’t render. Quickest fix is put a Skin modifier on the object, and in edit mode, select all edges(A) Then in the N-Panel turn up Mean Radius X and Y to a large number(20 works)
Visuals and additional information
Huge object, increased viewport clipping but not for the camera so it doesn’t even see it. Either change the clipping or scale the objects.
Bare edges won’t render with the setup, either use wire material with Blender render
or add thickness and use either render engine
