TIN Polygon

TIN Polygon Tag Tool, From TIN Toolset, Conversion Toolset, 3D Analyst Toolbox

TIN Polygon Tag

Creates polygon features using tag values in a triangulated irregular network (TIN) dataset.

1.    Input TIN

The TIN dataset to process.

2.    Output Feature Class

The feature class that will be produced by this tool.

3.    Tag Value Field (optional)

The name of the field storing the tag attribute in the output feature class. The default field name is Tag_Value.

TIN to Raster

TIN to Raster Tool, From TIN Toolset, Conversion Toolset, 3D Analyst Toolbox

TIN to Raster

Interpolates a raster using z-values from the input TIN.

1.    Input TIN

The TIN dataset to process.

2.    Output Raster

The location and name of the output raster. When storing a raster dataset in a geodatabase or in a folder such as an Esri Grid, no file extension should be added to the name of the raster dataset. A file extension can be provided to define the raster's format when storing it in a folder, such as .tif to generate a GeoTIFF or .img to generate an ERDAS IMAGINE format file.

If the raster is stored as a TIFF file or in a geodatabase, its raster compression type and quality can be specified using geoprocessing environment settings.

3.    Output Data Type (optional)

Specifies the type of numeric values stored in the output raster.

· FLOAT—Output raster will use 32-bit floating point, which supports values ranging from -3.402823466e+38 to 3.402823466e+38. This is the default.

· INT—Output raster will use an appropriate integer bit depth. This option will round z-values to the nearest whole number and write an integer to each raster cell value.

4.    Method (optional)

The interpolation method used to create the raster.

· LINEAR—Calculates cell values by applying linear interpolation to the TIN triangles. This is the default.

· NATURAL_NEIGHBORS—Calculates cell values by using natural neighbors interpolation of TIN triangles

5.    Sampling Distance (optional)

The sampling method and distance used to define the cell size of the output raster.

6.    Z Factor (optional)

The factor by which z-values will be multiplied. This is typically used to convert Z linear units to match XY linear units. The default is 1, which leaves elevation values unchanged. This parameter is disabled if the spatial reference of the input surface has a Z datum with a specified linear unit.

 TIN Triangle

TIN Triangle

TIN Triangle Tool, From TIN Toolset, Conversion Toolset, 3D Analyst Toolbox

TIN Triangle

Exports triangle faces from a TIN dataset to polygon features and provides slope, aspect, and optional attributes of hillshade and tag values for each triangle.

1.    Input TIN

The TIN dataset to process.

2.    Output Feature Class

The feature class that will be produced by this tool.

3.    Slope Units (optional)

The units of measure to be used in calculating slope.

· PERCENT—Slope is expressed as a percentage value. This is the default.

· DEGREE—Slope is expressed as the angle of inclination from a horizontal plane.

4.    Z Factor (optional)

The factor by which z-values will be multiplied. This is typically used to convert Z linear units to match XY linear units. The default is 1, which leaves elevation values unchanged. This parameter is disabled if the spatial reference of the input surface has a Z datum with a specified linear unit.

5.    HILLSHADE azimuth, altitude (optional)

Specifies the azimuth and altitude angles of the light source when applying a hillshade effect for the feature layer output. Azimuth can range from 0 to 360 degrees, whereas altitude can range from 0 to 90. An azimuth of 45 degrees and altitude of 30 degrees would be entered as "HILLSHADE 45, 30".

6.    Tag Value Field (optional)

The field name in the output feature that will store the triangle tag value. This parameter is empty by default, which will result in tag values not being written to the output.
