Elevation Model

[A_H_2 (Amelie Herzman)]

Hello everyone,
I have a question regarding an elevation model in Rhino.
I got a DXF from the surveyor and loaded it into Rhino, the file looks like the pictures.
Can anyone tell me how to create an elevation model from this file?

That would be great, thank you very much.

Hi Amelie -

@A_H_2

Can anyone tell me how to create an elevation model from this file?

Somewhat difficult to tell from those small pictures. Perhaps extracting the points of the vertical lines and then selecting only the top points and running MeshPatch on those is what you are after?

I now have the lines as shown in the pictures. I would now only have to place a mash over the lines, then I think I would have the right height model. Do I have to convert the lines for this or what is the best way to proceed?

Please…
Just post a 3dm file with just the lines.

If you are referring to the vertical green lines, no, you can’t use those to create a mesh from directly. You need to extract the top points and create a mesh through those.

Hi Amelie - is this what you are looking for?

Wim’s suggestion seems right to me - ExtractPt from the lines, MeshPatch through the points you care about.
