Looking for a basic method of mapping out heights over an area just over 2 acres.
Ex railway goods yard that has been , er , left to nature for a few years, as it was originally cut into side of a hill have one access track down a l oading bank and a yard at what was rail level and yard area that served th e goods shed with access shared with Network Rail.
Track was lifted probably late 70`s no trace is visble of ballast through o vergrowth.
What exists of original plans from 1868, shows a possible slight incline do wn towards the goods shed.
NR has used some of the intervening years to dump excess ballst and old con crete sleepers down one end, line and station adjacent are still live.
Not looking to create plans suitable for planning, it`s development now inv olves encouraging nature and restoring the goods shed, but being able to ge t some idea of heights in section would help cure some of the sites current drainage problems.
Any advice?
Thanks
