Height offset	HEIGHT_OFFSET_M	m	-1.7976931348623157E308 to 1.7976931348623157E308	How many meters above or below the datum this building should be visualized. This is intended for bridges or other buildings on water, so that they can be lined up appropriately with the surrounding land, or float at an appropriate height.

Values

• This Function Value does not have usable values by default.
• Buildings generated during project creation can have their values overwritten based on the height of surrounding terrain, so that bridges connect to the appropriate parts of the terrain.

Notes

• Also influences the datum height a Building's Custom Geometry is situated.
• The Water Overlay includes the height offset of buildings when computing the elevation model. For example, bridges with a height offset will be considered as high as their height offset.
