Toposurfaces

The Toposurface command defines a topographical surface (a toposurface) using points. You can create
toposurfaces in 3D views or site plans.
When viewing a toposurface, consider the following:
Visibility: You can control the visibility of topographic points. There are 2 topographic point subcategories,
Boundary and Internal. Revit Architecture classifies points automatically.
Triangulation edges: Triangulation edges for toposurfaces are turned off by default. You can turn them
on by selecting them from the Annotation Categories/Topography category in the Visibility/Graphics
dialog.
See Visibility and Graphic Display in Project Views
Description
Contour intervals are based on this value. For example, if you set the contour interval
at 10, contour lines display at -20, -10, 0, 10, 20. If the Passing Through Elevation
value is set to 5, lines display at -25, -15, -5, 5, 15, 25.
Sets the elevation where additional contour lines begin.
Sets the elevation where additional contour lines no longer display.
Sets the interval for additional contour lines.
Select Single Value to insert one additional contour line. Select Multiple Values to
insert additional incremental contour lines.
Sets the type of contour lines to display. Select a value from the list. You can define
custom contour line types using the Object Styles command, in the Topography
category.
Sets the material that displays in a section view.
Controls the depth of the cross-section of earth (for example, –30 feet or –25 meters).
This value controls the poche depth for all topography elements in your project.
Specifies the display of angular values on property line tags. You can load property
line tags from the Civil folder under the Annotations family folder.
Specifies the units to use when displaying bearing values in the Property Lines table.
