Topography analysis (compass direction)

Grasshopper
1

I’ve just found out the Aspect tool for ArcMap and I was wondering if there was a way to do the same kind of analysis on a terrain model with GH.
I’m a beginner, I would really appreciate if anybody had ideas or examples on which components to use and how to do it.

what kind of input do u have?

a mesh?
a obj?
curves?
points?

I used contour lines to make a patch. I might as well create a mesh from that surface.

4

Do u have a file?
If u have geometry in rhino, either send .3dm+.gh, OR internalise all geometry in .gh
