Streamline your workflow with our AI-powered drawing tool. This feature uses Artificial Intelligence to eliminate manual work by instantly suggesting a polygon boundary for any object you measure. The process is simple: hover your mouse to see the suggested outline, click to accept it, and use quick keyboard shortcuts to make final adjustments.
Important Information to Know
Please note that the Magic Polygon tool is not available for:
- Pre-processed data (or BYOD)
- Lidar processed data
- Surveys processed before September 28, 2023
When you activate the Polygon drawing tool in the measurement toolbar, the Magic Polygon options will open.
Hover over the object (e.g stockpile) you want to measure, and the tool will suggest a boundary.
Use the corresponding letters on your keyboard (or sliders) to increase or decrease the Buffer around the object or the number of Vertices used to create the polygon.
- Press 'I' to increase the buffer and 'U' to decrease the buffer around the object.
- Press 'K' to increase the number of vertices and 'J' to decrease the number of vertices.
The boundary will adjust accordingly. To choose the suggested boundary, press the Shift key and left click.
If your polygon measurement includes a Surface Comparison, choose your From and To surfaces in the dropdown menus. Note that some measurement types will be pre-filled automatically. Change the pre-selected surfaces if needed.
Click the pencil icon next to the polygon name to make any changes to the name. Press the Enter/Return key to save your changes to the name.
