![]() ![]() I then created an export of the same building, moving it to 160' high during export, but in the same position. Notice the distortion of the building geometry? It's the same model with the same settings, the only difference is I moved it over a bit and had to tell vectorworks to move it up 80' so it would sit in the rocks. Rationale: I took the same house I posted earlier and moved it to the hillside a few hundred feet away. Or, it may have something to do with how Vectorworks authors. Just keep in mind my assistance is observational, based on my experience.ġ) I believe the distortion may be caused by the underlying terrain data within GEP, not your model itself. Is this like yours?ģ) Is that the best one can expect graphically for the kml models in GEP, i.e., greyed out and heavily "polygonized"? (Yours seems similar with respect to the greying out, but not the polygons).Įdited Jby problem, happy to help. ![]() See third image which shows what I'm seeing as far as breakdown of layers. I did and that seemed to work, but you will see from attached image the home obviously gets distorted as it follows GEP terrain (it's hilly here with a +2200' Elev.) So, 3 more questions:ġ) Does the distortion also have to do with the GEP setting for altitude, per second attached image? Or why does the model have to be pinned to the terrain rather than just existing within it, if you get what I mean?ģ) Can you point me to something which explains those altitude settings and whether you can globally modify them? GEP "Help" doesn't seem to be very helpful, at least not that I could find. I hadn't georeferenced either the layers or document before when things exploded.

Using Web Soil Survey to Learn Your Land’s Potential More Applications for Farming and Ranching (13 min 39 sec) Making Contour Maps and Importing Soil Survey Information (18 min 22 sec) ![]() Program Installation and Basic Navigation (12 mins, 35 sec)ĭrawing Infrastructure, Measuring Distances and Areas (14 min 54 sec) Following are links to each of the four videos, along with their respective run times. Steve Gabriel with Wellspring Forest Farm in central New York released a four-part video series on YouTube that does a fantastic job showing how to create a map of a farming/ranching operation using Google Earth Pro. A high-speed internet connection is also very helpful to minimize the refresh time for aerial imagery. The Pro version only works on desktops or laptops running Windows, Mac, or Linux operating systems. The third version, Google Earth Pro, is the full-feature version that is best for creating maps. These two versions are not designed for creating maps that require infrastructure to be added to them. There are two versions of Google Earth-one is web-based and the other is for mobile devices. There are three versions of Google Earth currently available, depending on the type of device being used and the features that are needed. Google Earth, a computer program that’s been around since 2001, is a great tool for visualizing a landscape. Have you ever wondered how to make a digital map that can show the existing and planned infrastructure for virtually any piece of land in the world? Have you wondered how you can measure the area of a particular field or the length of a proposed fence or pipeline? Have you wondered what the elevation is at different locations? The answers to all these questions lie in getting familiar with the free tool Google Earth Pro. By Justin Morris, NCAT Regenerative Grazing Specialist ![]()
