Well, in GI science we speak of 'vertices' for pillars and just 'nodes' or 'junctions' for that what you know as tower nodes. Coming from GI I found it hard to understand what towers and pillars should be until I read some documentation about it. So by talking about vertices at least, it would get much clearer for.a whole bunch of geomatic related people. Am 01.12.2014 19:38 schrieb "D KING" <[email protected]>:
