  • Calculate volume from a triangulated boundary
  • Calculate volume against a LandXML surface
  1. Integrations and extensions
  2. Pointscene -integration

Define the calculation type

PreviousPointscene -integrationNextSelect the point cloud

The first dialog that opens is "Choose calculation type" -dialog.

Ultimately there are two different alternatives for the calculation type:

  • Calculate volume from a triangulated boundary

  • Calculate volume against a LandXML surface (Preferred option)

Select the desired option by clicking the toggle button next to the option.

When the volume calculation is done for the first time, it is suggested to use the first option. This allows a small area to be processed, making the first calculation faster.

Once the point cloud is successfully processed, the second option is preferred.

Calculate volume from a triangulated boundary

The first option creates a new triangulated network from defined area. This tool is useful to highligh in the very beginning the cut and fill area.

When site is being built, the information is no longer as informative. During the construction it is suggested to use the other calculation type.

Calculate volume against a LandXML surface

The second option is very useful when the work has begun on the site. Up-to-date information is being compared against the designed state or start state.

This option needs the surface in LandXML. So rather than creating a new TIN from the area, it uses the TIN from a LandXML file.

Once the desired type is selected, continue by clicking Start
