Quantity toolbox
The Quantity toolbox contains tools that can be used to compute quantities between surface models or between surface models and cross sections of trenches, to find the intersection between two surfaces or to compute surface model areas. Further, there is a tool for computing tunnel volumes based on tunnel cross sections.
Compute Quantity is probably used most often. It calculates volumes between two surfaces using the grid method. It can calculate volumes from entire surface models or from areas restricted by a fence or selected polygon.
Define Section Templates and Compute Section Quantity tools can be used for calculating volumes along an alignment. The calculation is based on the traditional end-area method.
