Root protection areas/root balls for trees on the toposurface

I would like to create root protection areas/root balls for trees on the toposurface/terrain in the 3D view in Revit. Root protection areas/root balls should have depths and should look like cakes aligned to the toposurface. Root areas should follow the underlying terrain. What is the best way to create them? I tried subregions, they are following the terrain, but they cannot intersect each other, so I had to create one polygon around all trees as root areas. Ideally, each tree should have its root area, which can intersect with other root areas. I can do this easily in AutoCAD, however, they do not follow the terrain.

Thank you!

Modeling Root Balls??? Never seen that.  What's the purpose of Modeling them?  Is it for Scheduling Cut/Fill?  Clash Detection? Some Landscaping Code I don't know about?  

 

...and how do you do it in AutoCAD?

I just wanted to model 3d trees with their roots to show the existing trees. The roots are shown as a circle around a tree. The aim is to create tree roots in Revit for Clash Detection.

 

Our in-house GIS program generates these circles around each tree and we can open this in 2D view in AutoCad. Then we can simply and easily add depths in the 3D view. The problem with this is that roots balls are flat and do not follow the terrain. 

 

The example tree with the root ball:
