An overview of the 3D Features toolset
The 3D Features toolset contains tools for constructing, converting, and evaluating the geometric properties of 3D features.
3D Features toolset
|
Tool |
Description |
|---|---|
|
Creates closed multipatch features from open multipatch features. |
|
|
Creates height adjusted breaklines from 3D polygons representing river banks. |
|
|
Creates 3D point features along 3D lines using three-dimensional distances. |
|
|
Evaluates multipatch features to determine whether each feature completely encloses a volume of space. |
|
|
Generalizes 3D line features to reduce the overall number of vertices while approximating the original shape in horizontal and vertical directions within a specified tolerance. |
Conversion toolset
|
Tool |
Description |
|---|---|
|
Imports 3D features from one or more ASCII files stored in XYZ, XYZI, or GENERATE formats into a new feature class. |
|
|
Exports 3D features to ASCII text files storing GENERATE, XYZ, or profile data. |
|
|
Creates 3D features using height values derived from the attribute of the input features. |
|
|
Generates 3D geometries from existing 2D and 3D input features using rules authored in ArcGIS CityEngine. |
|
|
Imports one or more 3D models into a multipatch feature class. |
|
|
Exports feature layers with 3D display properties to 3D lines or multipatch features. |
Interpolation toolset
|
Tool |
Description |
|---|---|
|
Creates surface-conforming multipatch features by draping polygon features over a surface. |
|
|
Creates 3D features by interpolating z-values from a surface. |
|
|
Updates the z-coordinates of 3D feature vertices using a surface. |
|
|
Creates features that update the z-values of 3D line or polygon vertices with placeholder values that represent missing z-value information. |
