Topography reports incorrect fill values

I've noticed some very strange behavior with topography, that's making me scared to trust any of it. This problem is reproducible:

 

1. create a graded region

2. create a new building pad

3. move this building pad

 

The Fill values go absolutely haywire, and as far as I can tell, have no connection to the actual geometry whatsoever (and if it does, I can't imagine what may be).

 

There shouldn't be any fill value; it's a hole and there should be thus only cut geometry.

 

Screencast attached.

I don't see the problem. 

 

There is no fill being reported in your video. Did you post the right video?

Am I misunderstanding how this works?

 

It's reporting fill in the second row of the schedule (which is the main new topography being cut) and it’s reporting a net gain in material rather than a net loss. But the value for the fill material just seems to jump around all over the place.

 

Edit: Sorry I didn't see your whole reply in my email.

I see the cut value "jumping", but that's to be expected since the terrain in sloped.  The "depth" of the hole is relative to a level -- not relative to top of Toposurface.

I agree and the cut value is behaving as expected, but when I move the pad in the video the fill value jumps from :

1.33 to 0.00 to 2.29 to 1.15 to 5.11 to 0.71 to 2.25 to 5.71

 

It's a hole, right? So the new topography should not be deflecting at all, let alone getting bigger in volume.

 

Or am I misunderstanding how building pads work?

 

My other thought was maybe the building pad is too small for it to make an accurate calculation? It tried this with a 10m x 10m (as opposed to 1m x 1m) building pad and the behavior seemed a little more in line with what was to be expected. But this of course isn't great if I need to use them for such small things like cutting stairs into terrain, etc.

The calculated cut and fill volumes are approximate, but usually within plus or minus 2 percent accuracy. I've been using this function for years and have had no great disparities come up between calculated projections and as-built.  Still, I don't see an issue in your video.  There is zero fill consistently being reported.
