What This Does
Quickly estimate the average grade between two points using LiDAR elevations. Great for field scouting and preliminary assessments.
Use With Caution
- LiDAR cannot see through water or dense vegetation
- NOT suitable for measuring grades between culvert inverts
- For culverts and precise work, use RTK survey equipment
Best Used For
Open fields, bare soil areas, and preliminary grade estimates. Use the result as your target gradient in Ditch Assist DIG.
