Topocad - Volume calculation by sectionsThis function calculates volumes between two terrain models by using cross sections.

Surveyed (model)

Enter the surveyed model, the soil model or the upper model that you are using. This model will be displayed in green.

Theoretical (model)

Enter the theoretical model, or rock model. This is the bottom model and will be displayed in red.
