Tunnel cross sections
|
|
To create cross sections of your models (grid or unstructured point clouds and meshes) following a trajectory you can access the relative command in the Mining top toolbar, below the Tunnel Survey tools. |
The path used to extract multiple cross sections can be defined by points directly picked in the 3D scene, or by polyline and trajectory already available between the project's items.
After clicking the Points button, double click on several points in the 3D scene to define the trajectory of the the axial section line.
Select the undo button to delete the last picked point.
After clicking Polyline or Trajectory a list of available project items appears to invite to select the desired one.
Select 
to accept the choice or 
to deny it.
Several cutting plane are created based on this profile, but its width and height can be changed later.Flag Repeat profile to create more profiles, setting intervals and number of sections parallel to the main one.
Flag Extract point slice to extract also slices of point cloud in correspondences of the each section. The thickness of the slice is defined by the slice depth value.
Follow the step-by-step video tutorial to perform the Tunnel cross sections process.
