Terrain

Hello,
I have geodetic terrain in 3d. There are just lines. How do I make it to a mesh or grass surface?
I have Archicad 21

Magic wand the lines in 2D onto a mesh, then elevate the lines to the desired heights?
Use a plugin like ArchiTerra to create a mesh from contours?

Here is a clip that shows how it is done:

Can you show me on a screenshot how this looks in the Floor Plan and in 3D? Are these just a series of 3D polylines?

I assume you would have to create the mesh manually as shown above.

However if the lines are in 3D , then maybe you could select them all and turn them into a morph.
Then possibly use the 'cover with faces' option to create surfaces.
It won't be a mesh but may allow you to create a 3D body (morph).

We would have to see the lines to advise further.
