Pay attention that the workflow in the video has one shortcoming. In case any of the XYZ values of a point is 0, they will also be filtered out with the conversion of text to boolean. So instead using a "text length" component may be more reasonable.

Here the "Cull Duplicates" component eliminates both duplicates. If you want to preserve one curve you can right-click the Cull Duplicates and select the "Leave One" option.
Master landscapes with Grasshopper by learning how to manage many meshes using mesh join, data tree branching, and path shifting to keep pieces separate and produce multiple meshes.
You can find the OpenNest plugin with the attached link.
Set up profiles and rails in grasshopper, sweep to form stairs with a start plane, orient and flip planes, and align origins. Cap the geometry and preview it on terrain.
Learn to generate roads on terrain in Grasshopper by reshaping the terrain around road presence, not editing new geometry; the terrain dynamically updates and colors indicate road presence.
Learn to compute cut and fill between an initial and a desired mesh by comparing triangle volumes projected to a ground plane, using area-based height methods for fast, accurate results.
Adjust mesh levels across regions to match plot elevation for buildings, and minimize the total absolute difference for cut and fill to balance soil on site.
