This is a request to calculate the distance between 2 points in this example the point is 236048,901064 in ma state plane mainland nad 83 meters epsg 26986 and were asking for a buffer of 10 meters since that is the units of this projection. These extensions generate these input files node file and connection file directly in the exact format required by conefor. While it is possible to model the base zvalue of a multipatch using a numeric feature attribute, this option may not support all the same analysis and interaction options that are available when using embedded z. Multipatch features can be created by converting 3d symbology to multipatch features or through other geoprocessing tools. A script will be used in sketchup 5 for calculating the volume of the 3d. Examples include trees, buildings, bridges, and interior spaces. Views allow you to codify common queries in the database and make them available to multiple users. When doing things like an intersect of 2 multipatches, i would have thought that the resulting volume is important. The intersect combine command also works differently in patch analyst and patch grid.
