Extract Multipatch From Mesh (3D Analyst Tools)

Summary

Creates a multipatch feature from the portion of an integrated mesh that overlaps a polygon.

Usage

Each polygon from the footprint feature will result in a multipatch created from the overlapping portions of the integrated mesh.
Consider using this tool if you need to assign attributes for discrete objects captured in the integrated mesh. The attributes from the footprint polygon will transfer to the resulting multipatch.
Consider using this tool if you need to process the data captured in an integrated mesh using tools that analyze multipatch geometry.
