Elevation Grid Object Service
=============================

Service for accessing the elevation grid object.
It is possible to use a Get and Set method for getting object specific data.
Further, it is possible to convert the elevation grid to a line object with ``ConvertToLines``.
Properties of the object can be found here :ref:`TApiObjElevationGrid <TApiObjElevationGrid>`.
A small example can be found below.

Elevationgrids can be used as TIN.
You can control this with the property ``DefaultHC``.
If set to True it windPRO will set this property on all other elevation grid objects and line objects to False.
If no other object in the windPRO is used as TIN a newly added elevation grid will have True as default.
