Field Appraisal
The “Field Appraisal” attributes are a collection of attributes sometimes used as inputs for bank height appraisal systems. The attributes themselves reflect measurements to/from points in the road cross section geometry. How the user configures their design may influence what attribute should be reported to correspond with what they intend to report. Furthermore, appraisal system my change and evolve overtime, the user is encouraged to verify that the definitions used for attribute measurements match the current appraisal system definition they wish to comply with.
