I'm not sure, but I somehow remember something about some script that did the caluclation. Never run it so far, however. And I don't remember the name. Would be cool if such a function would be integrated in therion itself and printed to the log... (maybe do both: just use LRUD data and another run by using the volumes calculated from the lox compiler) Am 2022-01-27 15:21, schrieb Bill Gee:
Hi Enrico -
Just to see what this method would produce, I installed both Paraview and MeshLab on my Fedora 35 system. I opened a .lox file of the cave in Loch (which displays a 3d rendering of the cave) and then exported it to a .vtk file. I opened the .vtk file in Paraview. It shows nothing. I cannot find the export function. The Save data feature does not offer x3d as a file type.
In Paraview the Information tab says there are zero cells, zero points and zero memory used. The x-, y- and z-range are "not available".
The .vtk file exists and is about 16k bytes (it is a small cave).
Am I missing something?

Hi Bill,
normally I export the VTK model of the cave from LOCH then I open it with ParaView With ParaView I export the model in x3d format and I open it with MeshLab where I use the filter "Surface Reconstruction: Screened Poisson" with pre-clean option active After that with the filter "Compute Geometric Measures" you can retrieve the volume on the log view.
My big issue is which model is better to export with therion in order to obtain an acceptable volume: the one with "-wall-source splays" or with "-wall-source maps"?
Hope this helps
good caves to everyone

Hello everyone -
Several years ago I made a map of a small cave. Among the data that was calculated was an estimation of the volume of the cave. I need to find that information again, but it has so far eluded me. I thought it was in therion.log along with other statistics like length and bounding box dimensions, but now I do not find it there. The estimation was based on solids calculated from centerline and LRUD data.
I looked in thTMPDIR and found nothing useful. I also checked to see if it comes from Aven or Loch. Nothing there. I looked through a KML file and found nothing.
Can any of you point me in the right direction? Believe it or not, I need to testify in court early next week about this. It's a long story ...
Thanks! ======== Bill Gee
