Template:SMS Review Elevation Data Workflow: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 17:30, 2 September 2015

1. Use the module Information dialog.
Use the Get Module Info macro or the File \| Get Info command. In the Information dialog, check that imported files contain data by reviewing the module tabs. Verify that the range of values corresponds to the expected range displayed in the Information dialog.

2. Use the Dataset Info dialog.
Find the "Z", "elevation" or "depth" datasets on the geometric object (mesh, TIN, grid, raster) that is being reviewed Right-click on elevation data and select Info. Review information in the Dataset Info dialog to see that the time step values are as expected.

3. Use contour display options.
Turn on Contours in the Display Options dialog and set contour options. The "Color Fill" option is recommended for this. Look for inconsistent points (points with values much higher/lower than their neighbors or regions where no data points exist). Verify that the region being modeled is covered by the elevation/depth data and there are no holes.
