How to add supplementary information to terrain data

Introduction

This article provides a detailed explanation on how to add supplementary information to the registered terrain data.

For instance, elevation and slopes can be visualized using heatmaps, and the terrain's elevation can be represented with contour lines. This method allows for the addition of insights not readily apparent solely from the terrain data.

Procedures and Explanation

1. Click the 【"1"Measurements 】 in the side panel.

2. Click 【"2"Terrain Guides"】 in the viewer.
You can add supplementary information such as slope, elevation, and contours.


3. If not selected, the 【"1"current time (most recently registered data)】 will be referred to.
Regardless of the viewer currently being displayed, you can also arbitrarily select the target data from "Designs" and "Terrain".

4. Customize each setting

Change slope settings
You can see the gradient of terrain according to slope value thresholds in gradations.
Determines the height of the point cloud data and adds it to the data.

Change elevation settings
You can see the elevation status of terrain according to slope value thresholds in gradations.
Determines and adds elevation to point cloud data

Change contour settings
You can display the contour lines of the terrain according to the set contour line threshold.
Determines the height of the point cloud data and adds a contour line.
