Inverse Fill and Cut
Introduction
Inverse Fill and Cut is used to get the elevation after cut/fill based on the specified cut/fill dataset extent and cut/fill volume.
The Inverse Fill and Cut function is used to solve this kind of practical problems: given the cut and fill raster data and the volume of the fill or cut. In this case, calculate the elevation after fill and cut. For example, a place provides V volume, if you fill all to the area, what’s the elevation you will get. And you can judge whether it meets the construction standard.

Main Parameters
- Set the source data to cut/fill.
- Datasource: It lists all the datasources in the current workspace. You can select the datasource that contains the dataset to cut/fill.
- Dataset: It lists all the datasets (GRID) in the current workspace. You can select the dataset to cut/fill. It will automatically locate the selected dataset in the Workspace Manager.
- Set whether to cut or to fill the raster, and also the volume accordingly.
- Fill: Select Fill if you want to calculate the altitude of filled volume.
- Cut: Select Cut if you want to calculate the altitude of cut volume.
- Volume: Set the volume to cut/fill. The unit is determined by multiplying square meters with the unit of the grid value.
- The calculation result will be displayed in the Altitude text box. If the calculation type is Fill, then the value is the minimum altitude for the Filled volume and the maximum altitude for the Cut volume. The unit is the same with that of the grid value.
