Hi all-
I'd like to see how other folks would solve this cartographic problem.
We just finished surveying a sandstone cave. One of the passages had a triangular cross section- widest at the top(maybe 8' wide at the ceiling), with the floor width being around 2'.
Obviously the cross section sketch illustrates the passage well- however, how would I represent it in plan view? The walls are bedrock, and slope smoothly to the floors- no steps or ledges.
I guess I could use the same slope symbol I'm using to illustrate changes in the floor slope, or else I could keep the plan view's wall width at the maximum(the ceiling width), and then use a fill to delineate the floor.
Or maybe I'm overthinking this. ;-)
