Volume Measurement

A Volume measurement refers to the process of determining the amount of space occupied by a three-dimensional object.

What types of Volume calculation options are available?

Volume calculation based on:

  • Best Fit Surface (default calculation type): Creates an optimized triangulated surface from the drawn points.
  • Height: Calculates the volume above the defined height.
  • Point Clouds Difference: Calculates the volume between two point clouds.

How to create a Volume measurement based on "Best Fit Surface"?

  • Select the "Volume" measurement tool
  • Indicate the area to be measured by selecting at least 3 points on the point cloud
  • Choose the Calculation Type (example shows "Best Fit Surface" calculation type)
  • In Storage Location choose an existing measurement layer or create a new one
  • Calculate the volume by clicking the "Calculate Volume" button (wait for the message "Calculating Volume succeeded").
  • Press the "Finish" button
  • Proceed with another measurement or store the current one


For further information on working with measurement layers, click here.

How to create a Volume measurement based on "Height"?

  • Choose the "Volume" measurement tool
  • Select at least 3 points on the point cloud to indicate the area to be measured
  • Navigate to "Calculation Type" in the volume menu
  • Open the drop down menu and choose Based on "Height"
  • You can manually enter the height

or

  • Left-click on the desired point within the point cloud
  • The height of the selected point is automatically adopted
  • Calculate the volume by clicking the "Calculate Volume" button
  • The result is saved in the last layer used when saving the measurement

or

  • Choose the desired layer from the list to store the measurement
  • Click on the "Finish" button
  • Proceed with another measurement or store the current one

For further information on working with measurement layers, click here.


How to create a Volume measurement based on "Point Clouds Difference"?

This tool is designed for comparing or calculating changes relative to a previous state. For example, in a construction site excavation, you can use either the topology point cloud provided by the state or a scan taken prior to the excavation. With the Point Clouds Difference Volume Measurement tool, you can calculate the amount of material excavated. Please note: This tool requires a minimum of 2 point clouds.

  • Activate at least 2 point clouds within the navigation pane
  • Choose the "Volume" measurement tool
  • Select at least 3 points on the point cloud to indicate the area to be measured
  • Navigate to "Calculation Type" in the volume menu
  • Open the drop down menu and choose "Point Clouds Difference"
  • In the list, which shows all active point clouds, assign point clouds to the two groups by clicking on the group number (group 1 is the Surface Point Cloud and group 2 the Base Point Cloud)
  • Click on the "Calculate Volume" button
  • Click on the "Finish" button
  • Proceed with another measurement or store the current one
