Markers on designs allow for setting points of interest at user-selected locations.  This includes using a marker as a benchmark “control point” location in the design.  To use a marker as a Benchmark location, refer to ‘Set Zero using a marker’ in the Impleme...

In the top right of any mapping window is a small button with a camera. Pressing the camera button will take a screenshot of what is currently on the screen.After taking a screenshot a pop-up window will appear (shown below). Pressing ‘Yes’ will open the folde...

In the top right of the screen next to the screenshot button you will find the Battery level indicator. This indicator displays the tablet/computer's battery level and whether it is plugged into power or not.

Google Earth will capture the current display area and overlay it on a satellite image of the field location. Check out the Google Earth Youtube video for more information. Note: You must have Google Earth Pro installed on your computer for this to work.

If the automatically generated search radius does not achieve what you expect it is possible to manually adjust the search radius in the bottom left corner of the surfacing page. There are a few things to take into account when manually adjusting the search ra...

Inline Offset, also known as Fix Lag, is a surfacing tool that assists in making corrections to elevation data that is imported from other sources.To access this tool press the ‘Fix Lag’ button located at the left end of the tools at the bottom of the screen. ...

This is a concept that can be confusing at first. When you surface a set of collected survey points you create a terrain model of the original elevation in the field. This is expected. But T3RRA software also automatically creates a design surface for you as w...

During surfacing, there are various different ways to edit/remove drain or survey points, as seen below.'Select by Z’ allows you to select elevation points by their height. After you click on it, you’ll see a graph of all your elevation data. Choose the data y...

To create regions, press the ‘Regions’ button (regions are not available in drain related functions). The ‘Regions’ tool is used to split a field into multiple workable areas. Different design options can be applied to multiple different regions. For example, ...

One of the many unique features of the T3RRA product suite is our inclusion of a rainfall simulation tool. This allows a very visual and easily relatable analysis of how a field surface affects water runoff and ponding.   It should first be used after a ...
