Command line |
This command is equivalent to Earthworks by Terrain Elevation, with the peculiarity that only the platform and its slopes are generated where there is a cutting volume. No cutting area is generated in the current surface.
An image of the original terrain is shown in the illustration below. It contains a highlighted polyline that defines the boundary of the cutting crown to be achieved.

If the inside of the area defined by the polyline is defined as the slopes' direction with an elevation of 585, the following result is obtained: A cutting slope is created from the polyline that descends to a elevation of 585, and then it creates a platform horizontal to this elevation.
