I am wondering how to calculate the volume of each of the bins in the attached images inside WebODM please?
If I use the volume tool in 2D mode then I can’t select the area of the stockpile and at the same time set the base plane throughout to be the level of the ground at the front of the bin. It seems to set the base plane as an average elevation of the points that I use to define the volume area.
The volume tools in the 3D view are not precise enough to do this.
If it is not possible inside WebODM, where would I need to do it, and is there a tutorial to learn how to do something like this?
Also consider that once the limits of the stockpile are set in software like QGis, you will find there are some ways to determine the base plane. So for isolated stockpiles which boundaries are mostly visible, a linear approach can be used. While for stockpiles set in slopes or in bins, the base plane is better defined by the lowest point. Creation of a triangulated 3D surface to define the base plane is advised for large stockpiles. This is also valid for stockpiles paced on irregular surfaces.
