Summary

The GT_3DOFFSETSLOPE command in GeoTools extends the functionality of GT_3DOFFSET by allowing users to offset 3D polylines based on a specified slope and elevation change. Instead of defining horizontal and vertical offsets, this tool enables users to input a slope angle (in degrees or 1:n ratio) and a target elevation difference, making it ideal for civil engineering, road design, and terrain modeling applications.

Offset 3d Polylines by Slope/Elevation: GT_3DOFFSETSLOPE – GeoTools Command

Key Features Include:

• Offsets 3D polylines using a defined slope angle and elevation change.
• Accepts slope input in degrees or 1:n format for flexible design adjustments.
• Works seamlessly in BricsCAD, AutoCAD, ZWCAD and ARES Commander.
• Essential for road grading, retaining walls, embankment modeling, and terrain analysis.
• Provides precision control over elevation-based offsets, improving design accuracy.

Benefits:

With GT_3DOFFSETSLOPE, users can efficiently generate slope-aligned offsets for engineering, topographic, and infrastructure projects, ensuring smooth and accurate elevation transitions.
