3. Enter the rod height in the HR field and the name for the first
point that is stored in the Store Point field. Future points are
stored with the next available point names.
4. You have the option of selecting a centerline and get offset and
stationing information for the staked points. Checking the With
C.L. checkbox and then tapping the
&HQWHUOLQH button will open
the Select Line screen where you can select an existing polyline or
alignment that defines a centerline. This information will also be
displayed graphically in the DTM Shot screen.
5. When the Generate TIN w\Staked Points box is checked, a TIN will
be generated from the points that have been staked. This is
necessary if you want to view the surface from the points staked
in the 3D View screen. This must also be checked if you want to
get live cut / fill and volume values for the points staked. When
unchecked, the 3D View is unavailable, no volumes will be
computed, and cut / fill values cannot be viewed, but are still
stored to the raw data file.
When you check the
Generate TIN
w\Staked Points box, the Setup DTM 3D
screen will automatically open, which is
primarily used to set up your layers and a
boundary.
