    ObstructionPoint Property
    In This Topic
    Gets the location, if any, of the first obstruction on the observer's sight line to the target.
    Syntax
    Public ReadOnly Property ObstructionPoint As MapPoint
    public MapPoint ObstructionPoint {get;}
    Remarks
    ObstructionPoint can be null - meaning there is no obstruction along the sight line. It will be projected to the LineOfSightParams.OutputSpatialReference or the spatial reference of the surface if LineOfSightParams.OutputSpatialReference is null.
    Example
    Get Line of Sight
    {
      tinLayer = null;
      MapPoint observerPoint = null;
      MapPoint targetPoint = null;
      CIMPointSymbol obstructionPointSymbol = null;
      CIMLineSymbol visibleLineSymbol = null;
      CIMLineSymbol invisibleLineSymbol = null;
    
      var losParams = new LineOfSightParams();
      losParams.ObserverPoint = observerPoint;
      losParams.TargetPoint = targetPoint;
    
      // add offsets if appropriate
      // losParams.ObserverHeightOffset = observerOffset;
      // losParams.TargetHeightOffset = targerOffset;
    
      // add obstruction feature class if appropriate (multipatch)
      //losParams.ObstructionsMultipatchFeatureClass = obsFeatureClass;
    
      // set output spatial reference
      losParams.OutputSpatialReference = MapView.Active.Map.SpatialReference;
    
      LineOfSightResult results = null;
      try
      {
        // Note: Needs QueuedTask to run
        {
          if (tinLayer.CanGetLineOfSight(losParams))
            results = tinLayer.GetLineOfSight(losParams);
        }
      }
      catch (Exception)
      {
        // handle exception
      }
    
      if (results != null)
      {
        bool targetIsVisibleFromObserverPoint = results.IsTargetVisibleFromObserverPoint;
        //These properties are not used. They will always be false
        // results.IsTargetVisibleFromVisibleLine;
        // results.IsTargetVisibleFromInvisibleLine;
    
        if (results.VisibleLine != null)
          MapView.Active.AddOverlay(results.VisibleLine, visibleLineSymbol.MakeSymbolReference());
        if (results.InvisibleLine != null)
          MapView.Active.AddOverlay(results.VisibleLine, invisibleLineSymbol.MakeSymbolReference());
        if (results.ObstructionPoint != null)
          MapView.Active.AddOverlay(results.ObstructionPoint, obstructionPointSymbol.MakeSymbolReference());
      }
    }
