Triangle Surface menu contents

Create

The Create option to create a triangle model by triangulating data points.

Two Polygons

The Two Polygons option to create a triangulation model limited by an inner and outer polygon.

Grid Mesh

The Grid Mesh option to construct a grid mesh model using a loaded triangulation.

Interactive Creator

The Interactive Creator option creates ore body solids from drill hole data.

Relimit by Polygon

The Relimit by Polygon option to create a new triangulation from an existing triangulated surface and one or more nominated polygons.

Relimit by Solid

The Relimit by Solid option to create a new triangulation by relimiting an existing triangulated surface against a nominated solid triangulation.

Surface Area

The Surface Area option to display the total surface area of a triangulation.

Triangulation Volume

The Triangulation Volume option to calculate the volumes between the overlapping area of two triangulated surfaces.

Add

The Add option to create a new triangulation from two overlapping triangulated surfaces. The

Subtract

The Subtract option to create a new triangulation from two overlapping triangulated surfaces.

Colour by Orientation

Use this option to colour-code the dip or dip direction of the facets in a surface triangulation, display vector arrows for each facet, and label each facet showing the amount of dip.

Offset Distance

Use this option to calculate the Z elevation difference between a line and a surface triangulation at every point of the line and store it in the point name. The option will also save the information in a CSV file.

Extrapolate Points

The Points option to extend a triangulation model beyond the given data by constructing phantom points with a Z value calculated as lying on the plane defined by a selected triangle.

Extrapolate Triangulation

The Extrapolate Triangulation option to add a triangle to the edge of a triangulation by specifying an existing triangle and digitising a point. The

Extrapolate Two Triangulations

The Extrapolate Two Triangulations option to add two triangles to the edge of a triangulation by specifying two adjacent edge triangles and digitising a point. The

Vertex Z Edit

The Vertex Z Edit option to view and modify the Z value of individual triangle nodes of a displayed triangulation.

Move Vertex

The Move Vertex option to change the location of a vertex in a triangulation.

Add Vertex

The Add Vertex option to insert a vertex into a triangulation

Delete Vertex

The Delete Vertex option to remove a vertex from a triangulation.

Insert Triangle

The Insert Triangle option to add extra triangles (facets) to an existing triangulation.

Delete Triangle

The Delete Triangle option to delete individual triangles (facets) from a displayed triangulation.

Swap Triangles

The Swap Triangles option to change the common edge between triangles.

Arithmetic

The Arithmetic option to create a new triangulation from an existing triangulation by either adding/subtracting a constant value to the existing triangulation or adding the Z values of the existing triangulation to another triangulation.

Thickness Between

The Thickness Between option to determine the thickness between two triangulations.
