    ooopps - shame on me!!!

    On my previous comment about contours, I was Looking at contour feet vs inches. Changing the Units to inches to match the elevation planes gives the right result.

    The contours are correct on Lews Plan.

    Chief is correct to within a few in on Lews plan - Keep in mind that smoothing may be responsible for a inch or two.

    I do think that Chief may be confused as to the definition of average elevation, center point and centroid. They should further define this
    (Joe's repeated comments) .

    BUT any variation is only off by a few inches.

    In the scheme ( could be more accurate) of things this is a non-issue.

    A few posts back you said we could not change the TP, then you said you put it at zero, and now you say you set it at 20'


    Scott:

    that is correct the TP elevation is 0" and will always be at 0"

    I changed the "pad elevation" which controls the HOUSE - not the terrain

    I said this before and I said it again.....

    the ONLY way to change the terrain elevations is to ADD elevation data, such as regions and then change them as needed

    so calm down, read carefully, and try to be respectful

    If you continue to be disrespectful then I will be done with this thread
