TIN
Master is Accurate...
The vast majority of problems with
TIN’s are caused by the mis-triangulation of
points. Most surveyors have used at least one of the
traditional DTM systems, and most have experienced
the problems inherent in those systems. Some systems
attempt to solve this problem by inputting breaklines
or modifying data points to force the triangulation.
This is time-consuming and cumbersome, and unless carried
to the extreme, still doesn’t produce a TIN accurate
enough for automated machine control.
TIN Master effectively
solves the triangulation problem producing accurate
TIN’s in a fraction of the time. Users just “point
and shoot” at bad contours
or triangles, and the TIN is locally re-triangulated.
New contours are instantly displayed on screen. TinMaster
DTM also contains a complete suite of commands to perform
other TIN editing processes. Users can produce TIN’s
accurate enough for machine control and still be cost
effective. View article (pdf file)
