TIN surfaces & volumes

Terrain models, contours, DEM and earthwork quantities

TIN surfaces from point groups with breaklines and outer boundaries, labelled contours, DEM grids and volumes against a reference level or between two surfaces — with quantity reports ready to hand in.

01

TIN surface from points

Constrained Delaunay triangulation from a point group, with outer boundary, holes and breaklines taken from object groups. Rebuild the surface with one click whenever points or lines change.

02

Contours and labels

Contours from the TIN at a chosen interval, highlighted index contours and automatic elevation labels. Output as 2D or 3D polylines.

03

Volume calculation

Volume above or below a reference level — cut and fill quantities straight from the terrain model.

04

Surface-to-surface difference (cut / fill)

Compare two terrain states (e.g. existing and design) — the difference is computed as a new surface with cut and fill volumes.

05

DEM point grid

Regular point grid (nx × ny) with elevations interpolated from the TIN — for export, checks or further processing.

06

Quantity reports

Select polylines and a section spacing, and get an XLSX report with section areas and volume.

07

Slopes, stationing and line elevations

Draw slope hatching (up to 2 m, over 2 m, with or without bottom line), stationing along lines, and drape 2D lines onto the surface.
