TINs may be converted to other types of data used in GMS, such as a 2D mesh or 2D scatter points. TINs can be converted by right-clicking on the TIN in the [[GMS:Project Explorer|Project Explorer]], Right-clicking on the TIN in the graphics window, or using the following commands in the TIN menu: | TINs may be converted to other types of data used in GMS, such as a 2D mesh or 2D scatter points. TINs can be converted by right-clicking on the TIN in the [[GMS:Project Explorer|Project Explorer]], Right-clicking on the TIN in the graphics window, or using the following commands in the TIN menu: | ||
==TIN | ==TIN → 2D Scatter Points== | ||
The '''''TIN | The '''''TIN → 2D Scatter Points''''' command creates a 2D scatter point set from the active TIN . One scatter point is created for each vertex in the TIN. A copy is made of each of the datasets associated with the TIN and the duplicate data sets are stored with the new scatter point set. | ||
==TIN | ==TIN → 2D Mesh== | ||
The '''''TIN | The '''''TIN → 2D Mesh''''' command creates a 2D finite element mesh from the active TIN . One triangular element is created for each triangle in the TIN. Any datasets associated with the TIN are copied to the new mesh. | ||
==Fill Between TINs | ==Fill Between TINs → 3D Mesh== | ||
See [[GMS:Creating_a_3D_Mesh#Fill_Between_TINs_ | See [[GMS:Creating_a_3D_Mesh#Fill_Between_TINs_→_3D_Mesh|Creating a 3D Mesh]]. | ||
==TIN Boundary | ==TIN Boundary → Polygons== | ||
This command creates one or more polygons in the active coverage in the [[GMS:Map Module|Map module]] corresponding to the outer boundary of the active TIN. | This command creates one or more polygons in the active coverage in the [[GMS:Map Module|Map module]] corresponding to the outer boundary of the active TIN. | ||
==TIN Thiessen | ==TIN Thiessen → Polygons == | ||
This command calculates the thiessen polygons from the TIN and converts them to feature polygons. | This command calculates the thiessen polygons from the TIN and converts them to feature polygons. | ||
==Vertex Strings | ==Vertex Strings → Arcs== | ||
The '''''Vertex Strings | The '''''Vertex Strings → Arcs''''' command creates an arc in the active coverage of the [[GMS:Map Module|Map module]] for each of the selected [[GMS:TIN Tool Palette|vertex strings]]. | ||
==Horizons | ==Horizons → Solids== | ||
See [[GMS:Horizons to Solids|Horizons | See [[GMS:Horizons to Solids|Horizons → Solids]]. | ||
