OVERVIEW
Carlson Software’s revolutionary Precision 3D platform combines the easy and delight of a completely 3D environment with the rigor and precision of sophisticated engineering tools. Much more than 3D just as a visualization tool, the software utilizes the newest technologies to allow users to easily combine data from a wide variety of sources to create high fidelity 3D surfaces (P3D Topo) and hydrology-related deliverables (P3D Hydro).
POWERFUL SURFACE TOOLS
Surface Creation:
- Create surfaces from point cloud data.
- No reduction for highest resolution
- Grid Reduction for faster loading of large surfaces
- Simplification
- Create surfaces from imported points and polylines.
- Add points and breakline polylines to existing surfaces.
- Crop and merge surfaces
Surface Editing:
- Real-time surface editing with dynamic contours
- Unified calculate volumes command and includes new surface to surface volumes.
- Surfaces created or used as top surface display cut/fill volumes in properties window.
- Add/remove points
- Add breaklines
- Swap triangle edges
- Remove triangles
- Edit point elevation
- Set point elevation from slope
- Surface smoothing
- Improve ridges and valleys
- Remove dimples (small shallow spots)
- Create PAD template surfaces for cut and fill
- Simple texturing using polylines
- Crop surfaces to polyline
- Merge Surfaces
