Terrain Script
project: Montage Park
location: Healdsburg, CA
date: 2021
size: 82 acres
Description: We scanned an 82 acre site with a drone and then generated a TIN mesh model. Contours were cut from the model in Rhino, and the grasshopper script allowed us to first smooth the contours. The resulting contours were then draped and used a surface for design iteration.

REBUILDING (SIMPLIFYING) CONTOUR LINES
REBUILDING (SIMPLIFYING) CONTOUR LINES
Usually the Contour lines have a lot of control points. Rebuilding these curves will make the processing time for creating the topo surface faster.
MESH TOPO FROM CONTOURS
This script create a mesh surface out of topography lines. The only input from Rhino is topo curves.
NURBS TOPO FROM CONTOURS
This script create a Nurbs surface out of topography lines. The only input from Rhino is topo curves.
SPOT ELEVATION AND SLOPE CHECK FROM POINTS
These Spot Elevation script shows the z value of the point. The slope check script calculate the slope between two points.
SLOPE CHECK FROM LINE
The script calculate the slope within a single line.
