4.1.8 Views and sections on models
4.1.8.1 Views on models
Saved views of a DSM may be defined to facilitate presentation of the model and its annotation. A saved view
shall have an identifier, be retrievable on demand, contain a model co-ordinate system that denotes the direction
of the view relative to the model and may contain one or more of the annotation plane(s), a selected set of
annotation, or a selected set of geometry.
4.1.8.2 Sections
Saved views may be used to retain sections. All sections shall be the same scale as the DSM. A representation of
a cutting plane shall be used to indicate the location and viewing direction of a section. A means to identify all
cutting planes in a model shall be available. A visible viewing arrow or arrows shall be included to show the
direction in which the section is viewed, see figure 7. When the resultant section is shown as curves in the model,
the viewing arrows can be omitted.
