Global Mapper v25.0

contouring at specific slope value

Hello all, 

I have downloaded SRTM data for an area and succesfully create a slope shader for it. 
Now I want to create a contour line for a specific slope value (e.g. 10 degrees), but I have no ideia on how to do this. 
Does anyone have any clue?

    You can export your terrain data as a float/grid file, and choose to export slope values rather than elevations.  This allows you to then re-load your file and create contours for slope values.
  • Very helpful. Can you also tell how to create contours for slope values from the .flt file? Thank you!
  • I found the Generate contours function...
  • Thank you very much Thea_bmg. It works!
