What it's for

Know where the ground is steepest.

The slope map shows, in colours, the flat and the steepest zones. Add contour lines and profiles where you need more detail.

What you need

An elevation model of the area.

Upload the flight data or import the model already processed. An orthophoto of the same area helps you recognise the ground.

  • Elevation model and orthophoto of the area

  1. 01

    Upload

    Upload data or the results from each flight.

  2. 02

    Process

    Turn data into results.

  3. 03

    Compare

    Compare surveys and see what changed.

  4. 04

    Measure

    Measure areas, distances and volumes.

Results

The slope of each zone, visible on the map.

You keep the slope map, contour lines and profiles with the survey, ready to look up, share or export.

  • Slope map by classes

  • Contour lines

  • Terrain profiles

  • Steep zones outlined

  • Report with the measurements

  • Export via API, as vector and raster

Important note. A slope layer does not replace a drainage, stability or safety study.

FAQ

What people usually ask.

How is slope calculated?

From the survey's elevation model, point by point, and shown in slope classes.

Is a photograph enough?

No. Slope needs the elevation model. The orthophoto provides context.

Can I see the profile of a steep zone?

Yes. Draw a line on the map and the profile is calculated automatically.

You may also need

Solutions that usually come together.

Measure elevations, distances and profiles 

Mark points or draw a line on the map and get elevations, distances and the terrain profile, with its length, elevation difference and slope.

Measure areas 

Draw the boundary of any zone on the map and get its flat area, its real (3D) area and its perimeter. The measurement is kept with the survey and its date.

Interpret terrain before fieldwork 

Elevation, slope and contour lines of the area, to choose routes, access and zones to observe before the visit.
