Adjust Cross-Section Elevations: GT_ADJUSTLEVELS – GeoTools Command

Summary

The GT_ADJUSTLEVELS command in GeoTools is a powerful fixer tool designed to recompute and modify cross-sectional profile elevations using updated elevation data. Instead of recreating a profile from scratch, this command allows users to regenerate levels and chainages based on a newly superimposed cross-sectional profile, making it an essential tool for surveying, road design, and civil engineering workflows.

GeoTool -> Geological/Mining Tools -> General -> Adjust Cross-Section Elevations

Key Features Include:

  • Adjusts and recomputes cross-sectional profile elevations without recreating the profile.
  • Works seamlessly in BricsCAD, AutoCAD, ZWCAD and ARES Commander.
  • Uses an updated 3D polyline or profile line as a reference for recalculating levels.
  • Requires input parameters such as:
    • Datum (reference) height
    • Datum point location
    • Horizontal/vertical exaggeration factors
    • Annotation interval
  • Complements GT_PROFILE, which generates cross-sections from 3D polylines.
  • Ideal for surveyors, civil engineers, and GIS professionals who need to update elevation models efficiently.

Benefits:

With GT_ADJUSTLEVELS, users can quickly update cross-sectional profiles while maintaining accuracy and consistency, ensuring better decision-making in terrain modeling and infrastructure planning.
