The benefits…MAXIMUM SPEED AND FLEXIBLE PROCESSING...

due to modelling method and database design.

NO SOFTWARE LIMITATION...

to the number of points to be modelled.

CUSTOMISE THE MODEL...

using powerful editing tools, including user definable positioning of contour labels

EXTENSIVE CONTROL ...

over the points to be included in the model creation.

LISCAD ModellingWant to Move Mountains?…Then you need Capacity and Power. LISCAD provides both!

“Modelling” computes unlimited size Digital Terrain Models and displays contours.

Model OptionsOne of the outstanding features of LISCAD Plus is its ability to model virtually unlimited sized data sets quickly and accurately. While a Validation option will check for duplicate elevations, crossing breaklines and unclosed boundaries, the user can form the model without validation.

The limits of a model can be controlled by model boundaries, either nominated in the field via a code, or placed later in the office. Model limits may also be imposed by the Block option, while the modelling of individual surfaces can be controlled by turning on / off different Groups (Layers). Multiple models can be held in each project.

Model EditingOnce the model has been created there are various editing tools available.

Triangles can be deleted individually, or by Block, or the entire model can be deleted.

Label LinesBy default the system can place labels at the end of each major contour, however the user can specify graphically where additional labels are to be placed.

These label lines can be easily moved or deleted.

Examining ModelsElevations in the digital terrain model can be examined, or can be interpolated onto points without elevations.

2D design projects can be laid over a model and elevations interpolated onto each design point via Block-Interpolation. This is an ideal application for cadastral and engineering design.
