Slope Report (SR):
This command reports the horizontal area along with the slope area of a figure defined by a range of points. The
command actually executes the TRIANGULATION command to compute the slopes within the defined area. There are
options to include breaklines, use a predefined TIN model, and prompt for inclusion/exclusion areas. If you use a TIN
model, you should click on "Prompt for Inclusion/Exclusion" and then pick perimeters where the calculation will be
applied.
Consider the figure defined by points numbered 570, 97, 569, 584, 585, 75, and back to 570 as shown below. From the
COGO AREA command, we see that the horizontal area of the enclosing polygon is 11,653.4122 Sq Ft. Performing the
SLOPE REPORT yields the same horizontal results, but also reports the slope area, and the maximum, minimum, and
