NaviModel - Digital Terrain Modelling  Download PDF
Applications
The NaviModel software provides advanced tools for generation of Digital Terrain Models (DTM), either as Triangular Regular models (TRI) or as Triangular Irregular Network (TIN) models. In the TRI models the survey area is divided into equally spaced triangular cells like in the EIVA Contour software, whereas in the TIN models triangles are created based on the raw data.

Data Input
Data for modelling is imported as cleaned survey data from NaviEdit (NED), ASCII XYZ data, run-line and profiles or raw NaviScan and NaviPac survey files.

Model Generation
Models are created for a survey area by definition of model parameters, desired cell type, and depth data type (minimum, maximum, average, last value, standard deviation and density).

Data Reduction
During the model definition phase NaviModel provides facilities for data reduction by setting of tolerances for depth variations and allowable shrinkage of model borders.
Cleaning
NaviModel features additional cleaning of models, either manually profile by profile in a pseudo 3D view or automatically through a spatial plane over the model allowing handling of data overlap.

Flexibility
Optional addition of survey data after creation of a model provides the possibility of dividing large data sets into more files for easier data handling.

Derived Models
NaviModel provides for the generation of derived models, substitution of one model into another model (e.g. insertion of theoretical model into data model), merging of models, etc.


Model Analysis
NaviModel features a/o analysis of actual versus theoretical models, model manipulations, and volume/area computations.

Data Views
Data displays comprise a/o 2D colour-coded views and rotate able, sun illuminated 3D views with free-flight feature and presentation of data relative to different sea levels. Longitudinal and cross profiles are defined or loaded by use of a profile definition curve.

Reporting
At any time during the generation of models access to progress information and reporting is available.
Output
NaviModel provides data output as DTM, Contour curves, longitudinal and cross profiles, cleaned or rejected data and screen prints. Formats comprise raw ASCII XYZ, DXF and NaviPlot format.

Windows Display
Full system flexibility allows personnel design and configuration of windows for preferred display settings and layout.
