VolumeEstimate

VolumeEstimate provides an approximate volume for a part or feature calculated from the extracted geometry. It records the numerical volume, units, estimation method, and confidence score so you can judge accuracy. Additional metadata notes whether the estimate came from bounding boxes, revolved profiles, or aggregated feature volumes. This information is useful for material usage planning, weight calculations, shipping cost projections, and pricing analysis. The model may also include references to bounding shapes or CAD assumptions used during the estimation, enabling transparency when sharing estimates with suppliers or customers and helping validate results against ERP records or quotes. When combined with material data it can power carbon-footprint assessments.
