Example

In This Topic
    GetAvailableClassCodesAndLabels Method
    In This Topic
    Gets the available classification codes and their corresponding labels. This method must be called on the MCT. Use QueuedTask.Run.
    Syntax
    Public Function GetAvailableClassCodesAndLabels() As Dictionary(Of Integer,String)
    public Dictionary<int,string> GetAvailableClassCodesAndLabels()

    Return Value

    Exceptions
    ExceptionDescription
    This method or property must be called within the lambda passed to QueuedTask.Run.
    Remarks
    Classification codes are used to define the type of surface, or surfaces, that reflected the lidar pulse. Classification codes are used in a PointCloudFilterDefinition to filter which point cloud data is rendered (or not)
    Example
    Query all class codes and labels in the PointCloudSceneLayer
    {
      // Note: call within QueuedTask.Run()
      {
        Dictionary<int, string> classCodesAndLabels =
                        pointCloudSceneLayer.GetAvailableClassCodesAndLabels();
      }
    }
    Set a Filter for PointCloudSceneLayer
    {
      // Note: call within QueuedTask.Run()
      {
        //Retrieve the available classification codes
        var dict = pointCloudSceneLayer.GetAvailableClassCodesAndLabels();
    
        //Filter out low noise and unclassified (7 and 1 respectively)
        //consult https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/help/data/las-dataset/storing-lidar-data.htm
        var filterDef = new PointCloudFilterDefinition()
        {
          ClassCodes = dict.Keys.Where(c => c != 7 && c != 1).ToList(),
          ReturnValues = new List<PointCloudReturnType> {
                            PointCloudReturnType.FirstOfMany }
        };
        //apply the filter
        pointCloudSceneLayer.SetFilters(filterDef.ToCIM());
      }
    }
