Drape

On the Drillhole | Planning tab, in the DTM group:: Click Drape to drape collars onto a DTM surface by repositioning the Z position of the collar to patch the DTM.

The Drape tool is used to interactively drape the collars of the active drillhole plan layer onto a selected DTM. Planned drillholes are moved vertically so that the collar coincides with the DTM surface. If the collars are below the DTM they are projected up into the DTM; and vice versa if the collars are above.

To use the Drape tool, you will need a DTM open and using Drillhole Planning mode for your drillholes.

  2. Click the Drape button.
