Grid Line (GriLin)

Type: Interactive/Batch Application

 

Grids existing line(s).

Detailed Description

Grids existing line(s) by placing points on line. Points may be placed by linear distance from the start of the line, on the coordinate system X or on the coordinate system Y. Original points on the lines may be deleted, deleted except for the first and last points or may be left unmodified. The elevation of the new points are interpolated based on the point before and after the new point.  An optional Duplicate Point Distance may be set to keep new points from being placed too close to existing line points.

Local Commands

Key-in

Description

Range

INSMOD=

Defines the action to be taken on the existing line points

0 = Don’t delete any existing points

1 = Delete original points except end points

2 = Delete all original points

GRIMOD=


0 = Grid linear along line

1 = Grid on coordinate system X

2 = Grid on coordinate system Y

GRIDIS=

Defines the gridding distance

Real number - Ground units

DUPDIS=

Duplicate point distance.  New points that are within this distance of an existing line point will be considered duplicate and will not be placed on the line.

Real number - Ground units

LAY=

Layers to search for lines to grid

Number line

WSTC=

Workspaces to consider

0=Current 1=All

RUN

Run grid lines in layer mode


Parameters

The following parameters are used when gridding line in interactive and batch modes. Pressing button 7 allows the entry of these parameters.

 

GridLine_image002

Grid distance

Defines the gridding distance. This parameter is entered in ground units.

Insert mode

Defines the action to be taken on the existing line points.

Don’t delete any existing points

The original points on the line are left unmodified

Delete original points except end points

Original points on the line are deleted except the first and last point

Delete all original points

All original points are deleted. The only points left on the line are the points inserted by this application.

Grid mode

Defines the point insertion mode.

Grid linear along line

Points are inserted linearly along the line starting from the first point on the line

Grid on coordinate system X

Points are inserted on the coordinate system X

Grid on coordinate system Y

Points are inserted on the coordinate system Y

Duplicate point distance (0=none)

Duplicate Distance. New points that are within this distance of an existing line point will be considered duplicate and will not be placed on the line.  This parameter is entered in ground units.  A value of zero disables the use of this parameter when inserting points on the line.

 

The following parameters are used when batch reversing a layer:

 

GridLine_image004

Layer of lines to grid

Defines the layers to search when gridding lines. A number line may be entered here.

Workspaces to consider

The current workspace or all open workspaces may be searched when gridding lines.

 

NOTE: Lines in layers that are turned off will not be considered even if they are specified.
