  • Intersection Terrain Model

    I'm using Power Geopak V8i SS10. Very new user. I created the incoming road and the intersection using breaklines. The issue I am running into is that the road coming into the approach has a 6" pavement depth and the intersection has 10" I wanted to…
  • Point cloud imports for terrain model resulting in strange Z-values almost like segments (Cloudcompare to microstation)

    Hi, I'm using microstation V8i and cloudcompare v2.11.0. I've been using cloudcompare with LiDAR data to make terrain models of an area (mesh/surface). I wanted to have certain areas of more refined detail and some areas that didn't need it. I saved…
  • More Dynamic Terrain Model Volumes

    It would be a great addition if the Terrain Model Volumes were more dynamic. We currently have the ability to place volume results as a text field in the DGN. It would be great if this text entity had some rule to how it was generated and would update…
  • Terrain Model Boundary Problem

    This is for PowerGEOPAK SS10 I don't think this is a unique problem but I can't seem to find any answer on it. The terrain model I was working on had a boundary created from Extract Graphic and I manipulate the boundary and it just expands to it as…
  • Importing a DEM to a Terrain model; is there a way to change the geographical coordinate system in the file options?

    Maybe I am just doing something wrong so feel free to call me out on that too. Here is the problem as it seems to occur, In PA we have some LIDAR data stored as DEMs it tends to be cleaner than the LAS data that is also provided. It actually is in PA…
  • Terrain Model Issue

    I have seen a particular terrain model issue crop up for several users. I already know what the fix is; but I want to understand how this keeps happening, and to try to prevent it. We are using Power GEOPAK SS3 for the time being, version 08.11.09.722…
  • Terrain Model vs. Terrain element

    What is the difference between a "terrain model" and a "terrain" element? We have just been discovering that terrain elements may be created under certain circumstances, and we would prefer that it doesn't occur. The only solution we've found is to drop…
