fm-gh-bedrock-generator

This script connects Grasshopper to the geotechnical site investigation data platform Field Manager API to create the following geometries using Norwegian Total Sounding (TOT) data:

1. Bedrock elevation mesh interpolated with Delunay triangulation
2. 3D borehole columns with colour separation on depth_in_soil and depth_in_rock segments
3. Location ID text-tag placed at the terrain point level

Filters are applied to allow only the following data:

1. Total soundings must have status code: Conducted or Approved
2. Total soundings must have stop code 93 or 94

The script is a work in progress and does likely contain bugs and errors that have not been documented
