Usage

  • The Extract Level tool is usually used to clean noisy areas like water bodies. In general, the photogrammetry process delivers poor DSM quality over water. To get a surveying grade result, the noisy part of the raw DSM needs to be flattened.


  • The Extract Level tool can be used to only delineate the water contour for your lightweight CAD model.


  • The Extract Level tool can also be used to calculate a basin retention capacity.


  • The Extract Level tool can also be used for stockpile volume calculation to assess part of the stockpile above a specific elevation level.
