Creating planes from points |
Geotechnical Settings
To access this dialog:
-
From the Project Settings dialog, select the Geotechnical Settings tab.
Your application can use strings digitised onto wireframes to specify key planes, for example for joint space analysis. As part of this, a variety of tools and visualisation methods are available to help with their generation and interpretation.
Your application provides two different methods to calculate average planes from a series of points: Projected Areas, and Least Squared Fit. Both should produce suitable approximations for a plane passing through a string, although the Least Squared Fit option may be more accurate in certain circumstances. The Use Least Squared Fit option requires a Sirojoint license, with the exception of loading a document containing previously calculated Planes. Contact Datamine for more information about this licensing option toolset. If this license is not present, this option will be disabled.
The calculation method chosen will affect how planes are generated
from strings, such as those generated in a 3D
