Sometimes when I make complex Terrains, PowerCivil (Benelux 09.674) the surface ignores the boundary (see red triangles in image). The Edit Terrain model function doesn't seem to work.
Does anyone know how I can solve this kind of problems?
Thanks in advance Louis
Can you provide the Terrain for a closer look.

Hi Mike,
I've uploaded the file here. This problem appears many often when I make complex road intersections.
Thanks,
Louis
The reason this is happening is because your arc at nose of the island does not exactly meet the line on the side of the boundary (at the very least the elevation is off on the NE edge of the arc line intersection)
This introduces a small gap in the terrain where the terrain then triangulates inside the arc.
