Generating a Volume Report for a Series of Surfaces

Report Volume for Series of Surfaces creates a volume information report for a series of surfaces, and export it to a csv file.

You can select various parameters to export a cut volume, a cut and fill volume for a specific zone of interest between polyhedral surfaces or large terrains or between both. You can also choose to export detailed information based on block model attributes.

  1. In the tree or in the work area, select at least two input surfaces:
    1. In the Report Volume for Series of Surfaces dialog box, add a new surface.
    2. In the New Surface dialog box, select a surface, and click Add.
    3. Repeat step a. and b. to add a second surface.

    Important: If there are multiple geometries under the 3D shape, only the first geometry is considered; therefore, make sure you have only a single geometry under the 3D shape.

  2. Expand the Parameters section, and specify the volume type information to export:
    OptionDescription
    Cut only Lets you exports a cut volume (removal of material) report.

    By default, this option is selected.
    Cut and Fill Lets you export a report that provides cut and fill (removal and addition of material) volume information.
  3. Optional: Select Detailed Analytics to export detailed information based on a block model.
    1. Select a block model.
    2. Specify whether you want to include specific block attributes in the report. By default, all attributes are accounted for in the report.

      • To include an attribute, select Report Attribute Data
      • Select one or more attributes from the list.

    3. Specify whether you want to group block attributes. Grouping the attribute values enables formatting the report based on the values of the selected group attribute.

      • To group attributes, select Group by Attribute Data.
      • Select one or more attributes from the list.

    4. Specify whether you want to include detailed fill material analytics selecting Detailed fill material analytics .
  4. Optional: Select a zone of interest.
  5. Expand the Output Preferences section, and specify the destination path and the output file name.
  6. To include input data in the report, select the Report Input Data check box.
  7. Click Apply.
