Measurement Illustration
Height
Point-point: The difference on the Z axis between the points.
Point-line: The difference on the Z axis between the point
and, for profiles, a point on the line at the same X position
as the first point. For surface data, the point on the line is
the one nearest to the first point.
Point-plane: The difference on the Z axis between the point
and a point on the plane with the same X and Y coordinates
as the first point (or the intersection of the plane and a line
from the first point, parallel to the Z axis).
Distance
Point-point: The direct, Euclidean distance between two
point geometric features.
Point-line: The direct, Euclidean distance between a point
and the nearest point on the line.
Point-plane: The direct, Euclidean distance between a point
and the nearest point on the plane.
Plane Distance
Point-point: The distance between two point geometric
features. For profile data, the points are projected onto the
XZ plane (always the same as the Distance measurement).
For surface data, the points are projected onto the XY plane.
Point-line: The distance between a point and a line. For
profile data, projected onto the XZ plane (always the same
as the Distance measurement). For surface data, the
distance is projected onto the XY plane.
Point-plane: The distance between a point and a plane. For
profiles, the distance is projected onto the XZ plane (always
the same as the Distance measurement). For surface data,
the distance is projected onto the XY plane.
Parameter Description
Stream The data that the tool will apply measurements to.
In Surface mode, this setting is only displayed when a
section is defined on the surface data.
If you switch from one type of data to another (for example,
from section profile data to surface data), currently set
input features will become invalid, and you will need to
choose features of the correct data type.
