GetNearestEdge Method

In This Topic

Gets the nearest edge to the specified point. This method must be called on the MCT. Use QueuedTask.Run.

Syntax

Visual Basic (Declaration)
C#

Public Function GetNearestEdge( _
   ByVal point As MapPoint _
) As TinEdge

public TinEdge GetNearestEdge( 
   MapPoint point
)

Parameters

point: Point location. This will be projected into the spatial reference of the TIN dataset.

Return Value

A TinEdge.

Exceptions

Exception	Description
System.ArgumentNullException	Point is null
ArcGIS.Core.CalledOnWrongThreadException	This method or property must be called within the lambda passed to QueuedTask.Run

Remarks

To ensure maximum robustness, callers should explicitly dispose of the returned TinEdge in either a using statement or a finally block.If the input point is outside the TIN or empty, then null is returned.

Example

Access TIN Elements by MapPoint

{
  // "identify" the closest node, edge, triangle
  using (var nearestNode = tinDataset.GetNearestNode(mapPoint))
  {
    // do something with the node
  }

  using (var nearestEdge = tinDataset.GetNearestEdge(mapPoint))
  {
    // do something with the edge
  }
  using (var triangleByPoint = tinDataset.GetTriangleByPoint(mapPoint))
  {
    // do something with the triangle
  }

  // get the set of natural neighbors 
  // (set of nodes that "mapPoint" would connect with to form triangles if it was added to the TIN)
  IReadOnlyList<ArcGIS.Core.Data.Analyst3D.TinNode> naturalNeighbors = tinDataset.GetNaturalNeighbors(mapPoint);

  // get the set of triangles whose circumscribed circle contains "mapPoint" 
  IReadOnlyList<ArcGIS.Core.Data.Analyst3D.TinTriangle> triangles = tinDataset.GetTriangleNeighborhood(mapPoint);
}

Requirements

Target Platforms: Windows 11 Home, Pro, Enterprise (64 bit)

ArcGIS Pro version: 3.2 or higher.
