Hello all,
I have built a corridor using a custom cut-fill assembly which assigns custom categories to the cut and fill zones depending on their steepness and height, corresponding to the different colours on the image below (ignore the gaps at boundaries between zones, it's a minor glitch I believe I already have a solution to)
Each colour corresponds to a different category (e.g. the light green zone is a shallow-sloped fill, the dark brown splotch in the centre is a steep cut in the soil layer and the red areas are cuts in rock) and each category has its own link code and feature lines for its inner and outer edge (relative to road centreline), all of which also specify whether they are on the left or right side of the road.
Is there a way to generate corridor surfaces independently the different zones, effectively corresponding to the hatched areas? If I set either the links or the inner and outer feature lines as the data for the surface to be built off it builds the zone of interest fine, but then bridges between the discontinuous zones as below (attempted to build a surface for just the rock cuts on the left side of the road, different corridor style for personal convenience, different location for dramatic effect)
I then tried adding in the inner and outer feature lines as boundaries, but due to them being discontinuous and coinciding with one another I get an error about them being ill-formed. and thus seemingly getting ignored altogether (also to get to this point I had to automatically add a boundary from EPS featureline, remove the EPS featurelines and select my custom ones as they don't show up in the create automatically dropdown).
I have been able to get a good result for a small part of the corridor by manually changing the start and end points for the featureline boundaries to only enclose a single zone at a time, so that the featurelines remain continuous within the length of interest, but that's very manual and barely better than exploding the corridor and taking the shrinkwraps of the individual zones as boundaries, which is what we have done last time and swore to never do again.
In short - is there a sane way of automatically creating corridor surfaces bounded to just areas with a specific link code present?
