RPS Earthworks - Work Order Surface Elevation Map

RPS Earthworks - Work Order Surface Elevation Map

The surface elevation map shows the current elevations of the surface in the work order area. the elevation legend shows the min and max values and the color bands being applied at different elevation ranges. The color bands are defined in the RPS Earthworks Settings.

Click Here for more details of the settings controls.

In the Surface Type selector (Top Left) you can select the following surface options

  • Date / Time Surface
  • Starting Surface
  • Design Surface
  • Capping Surface (Backfill Work Orders only)

When you select the Date / Time Surface, you can set the Date and Time at which you want to compute the surface from the production data using the Date / Time setting (Top Right). A Date / Time surface is created from the production data at the specified date and time. The surface comprises the last recorded machine data or the last recorded survey surface elevation at each location on the surface prior to the date and time selected.

When you select the Starting Surface, the map will display a color coded elevation map for the surface that you defined as the Starting Point surface for the Work Order.

When you select Design Surface, the map will display a color coded elevation map for the surface that you defined as the Design Surface for the Work Order.

When you select Capping Surface, the map will display a color coded elevation map for the surface that you defined as the Capping Surface for the Work Order.

Once a surface elevation map has been loaded, if you hover over the map you will see a pop up indicator that shows the elevation range band for the colored pixel over which your cursor is positioned in the map. Note that the value displayed is not the absolute elevation of the location, simply the elevation band of the legend in which it falls.

Survey Surface Review

The survey surface review can be accessed from the tools in the top right of the map screen. This review will display the list of surveyed surfaces that have been loaded to RPS Earthworks that have a min max boundary that overlaps or partially overlaps the currently selected work orders min max range.

By selecting the checkboxes next to the survey surfaces list displayed, the map will display the Min Max limits of the selected surveyed surface(s) as shown below

This capability was added to assist you in understanding which survey surfaces have been loaded that affect the currently selected work orders results.
