The Volume Calculation tool compares two Scalable Meshes
(3SM) or a Scalable Mesh and an element.
Access the tool:
- Realty Modeling workflow:
Analyze tab > Reality Mesh > Volume Calculation.
- Open Reality Mesh
Attachments dialog then select Edit.
The tool creates a grid (Grid Resolution setting) over the
user defined area which is used to calculate volume differences between the two
models. These volumes are then used to analyze and report Cut and Fill
differences.
| Setting | Description |
|---|
| Area
|
Choose area where to perform Volume Calculation:
|
| Cut Color
|
Color that represents cut values in output Raster
Grid.
|
| Fill Color
|
Color that represents fill values in output Raster
Grid.
|
| Grid Resolution
|
Cell size in output Raster Grid. Tip: dynamically
measure on the point cloud to set this parameter by clicking on the icon
|
| Output
|
Output types:
- Raster Grid
- Table
- Raster Grid and Table
Raster Grids are automatically attached and applied
a Thematic display based on the Cut Color and Fill Color settings. The Table
output creates a .csv file on disk which can be placed manually as a Table
element using the Place Table tool.
