So, let's go ahead to our exercise and see some of the different ways we can analyze our surface model. Now, throughout this exercise, we're going to focus and use a volume surface but know that the tools that we're look at for analyzing a surface, all these different tools are available for any surface model that we create in Civil 3D. So, I'm going to go ahead and select my surface using the contextual ribbon this time instead of Prospector, I'm going to go to Surface Properties.
