It is an important component of a deliverable to a client to best represent the terrain. Within 12d Model we create a Triangular Irregular Network known as a TIN. In this topic you will learn that a “Triangulated Irregular Network” (TIN) is an accurate method of representing a 3D surface. It is used to find interpolated elevations at any location on the data set, with examples like survey ground points or a set of design strings. These videos will show you how to create a TIN, contours and labels ready to export the data to your client.

Topic 6 – Labelling the Data
Labeling is the activity of placing text on a plan in relation to the symbols, together representing features and properties of the real world. Using text effectively creates survey plans that are clear, informative, and attractive. There are many ways to label in 12d Model and this Topic will demonstrate some of those methods.
