Getting rid of zero elevation in Triangulation File

Postby MIrizarry » Fri Feb 29, 2008 10:15 pm

I have a triangulation file that for some reason has a zero elevation location. Is there a way to fix this using the triangulation utilities (or any other method)? When i view it in the surface viewer everything looks okay except for this one spike that shoots down to zero.

Under the Triangulate and Contour routine, try checking Ignore Zero Elevations. If the point or object that is causing the spike is at zero elevation, this should solve the problem.

I should probably clarify that this problem occured when I was processing a road design and had checked merge design with existing surface and I had the ignore zero elevations checked in the Triangulation Routine.

You can use Surface->trangulation file utilities->remove point, this should let you pick the 0 elevation point and remove it from that tin file.

In the triangulation file utilities I don't think there is a remove point command
