Surface Area Calculator Features |
We think
you will find that the Surface Area Calculator will satisfy all your
needs for computing surface areas. But remember, if you need
additional or different capabilities in this product, we will be very
happy to hear from you, and we will take your suggestions very
seriously. Please let us know if you need revisions or additions, and we
will make them for you right away!
The main features of the Surface Area Calculator are as follows:
- Uses a fast and
meaningful Triangulated Irregular Network (TIN) model for the
three-dimensional surface.
- Calculates both
surface area and planimetric area.
- Calculates volumes
above and below a horizontal plane at a specified height.
- Calculates the
height of a plane so that a specified percent of the volume is above
that plane.
- Displays areas in
any of eight different selectable area units (both metric and
non-metric).
- Supports the input
of coordinate files in virtually any text file format and linear unit.
- Imports coordinates from shape file
databases.
- Supports all
standard reference datums for countries and states around the world, as
well as global datums.
- Supports various
standard linear units, and allows you to create your own custom linear
units.
- Allows you to create
your own coordinate file format definitions so that you can use your own
custom coordinate files.
- Allows you to create
your own coordinate file format definitions so that you can use your own
custom coordinate files.
- Allows the
de-selection and re-selection of triangles used in calculating areas
(and volumes) so that you can fine-tune the calculation.
The Microsearch
Surface Area Calculator uses the most accurate three-dimensional
geodetic mathematics, so you can be confident that your areas and
volumes are accurate.
