So, let's go and create some line work, and flatten it down to zero. And, we're going to take a look at some of these walkways here. So, we're just going to quickly trace out a little bit of this walkway for an idea of how this works. So, I'm just going to go and take a poly-line. So, I'm just going to take a 3D poly-line. And, I'm just going to just quickly trace out some of these walkways in the Point Cloud. (mouse clicking) So, I can just move around, and sort of see where the edges are. (mouse clicking) They come all the way down to here. (mouse clicking) And, I'm just going to go roughly…
