# PLATFORM ‘AUTOFIX’ FEATURE

When modelling under Earthwork or Road Module, you might encounter errors listed below when generating slope.

1. Platform “1” overlaps with platform “2”
2. Platform does not form a valid plane
3. Platform is incomplete after snap rounding

MiTS 3.2 now includes an Auto Fix feature that lets you quickly resolve these errors with a single click. You can find **Auto Fix** button under the **Actions** Tab or **Verification** Tab.

## **Platform “1” overlaps with platform “2”**

Certain platforms created under Earthwork and Road Module might share some overlapping space and cause errors above to appear. Using the Auto Fix function will automatically adjust the boundary of one or more platforms so that they no longer intersect.

## **Platform does not form a valid plane**

This error typically means that the geometry of the platform created is not flat or planar. In other words, the corners or vertices of the platform have Z-values (elevations) that do not lie on the same flat surface.

*One of the platform vertices has slightly different Z elevations, which means it is not flat with the other vertices*

Clicking on the Auto Fix button will automatically split the problematic platform into smaller sections, ensuring each section lies on a flat surface.

*Software will auto break the non-planar platform to maintain coplanarity*

## **Platform is incomplete after snap rounding**

This message means the platform could not be closed properly (open polygon) after the points were adjusted (snap rounding) by the software. For more information on snap rounding, you may refer [here](https://mes100.com/docs/snap-rounding/). You may use the Auto Fix function to resolve the error. And that function will just delete those small slivers of platforms.
