TIN files are used for storing triangulated irregular networks. The TIN file format is shown below and a sample file is shown after. The TIN file format can be used to import a simple set of xyz coordinates since the triangle information (beginning with the TRI card) does not need to be present. If you have a file of xyz coordinates you only need to add the TIN, BEGT, and VERT nv cards to the top of the file and the ENDT card at the end.
TIN /* File type identifier */ BEGT /* Beginning of TIN group */ TNAM name /* Name of TIN */ TCOL id /* TIN material id */ VERT nv /* Beg. of vertices */ x1 y1 z1 lf1 /* Vertex coords. */ x2 y2 z2 lf2 . . . xnv ynv znv lfnv TRI nt /* Beg. of triangles */ v11 v12 v13 /* Triangle vertices */ v21 v22 v23 . . . vnt1 vnt2 vnt3 ENDT /* End of TIN group */
Sample TIN File:

Cards used in the TIN file
| Card Type | TIN |
|---|---|
| Description | File type identifier. Must be on first line of file. No fields. |
| Required | YES |
| Card Type | BEGT |
|---|---|
| Description | Marks the beginning of a group of cards describing a TIN. There should be a corresponding ENDT card at a latter point in the file. No fields. |
| Required | YES |
| Card Type | TNAM | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| Description | Provides a name to be associated with the TIN. | ||
| Required | NO | ||
| Format | TNAM name | ||
| Sample | TNAM aspen

| Field | Variable | Value | Description |
| 1 | name | str | The name of the TIN. |
| Card Type | TCOL | ||
|---|---|---|---|

| Sample | TCOL 255 255 255
| ||
| Field | Variable | Value | Description |
| 1 | color_red | 0–255 | The red color component of TIN triangles. |
| 2 | color_green | 0–255 | The green color component of TIN triangles. |
| 3 | color_blue | 0–255 | The blue color component of TIN triangles. |
| Card Type | VERT | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| Description | Lists the vertices in the TIN | ||

| Field | Variable | Value | Description |
| 1 | nt | + | The number of triangles in the TIN. |
| 2–4 | v1,v2,v3 | + | Vertices of triangle listed in a counter-clockwise order. Repeat nt times. |
| Card Type | ENDT |
|---|---|
| Description | Marks the end of a group of cards describing a TIN. There should be a corresponding BEGT card at a previous point in the file. No fields. |
| Required | YES |
