Overview
ArcGIS 3D Analyst software provides advanced tools for three-dimensional modeling and analysis. This course teaches what a surface model is and shows how to create both raster and vector surfaces.
Goals
• Understand the structure of 3D data types, such as TINs, rasters, and 3D features.
• Use ArcCatalog to preview and manage 3D data.
• View and navigate data in 3D perspective using ArcCatalog, ArcMap, ArcScene, and ArcGlobe.
• Explore 3D analysis techniques such as finding steepest paths, calculating surface volume, and determining visibility between points.
• Set 3D viewing properties for 2D data.
• Create 3D surface models and 3D features.
• Convert 3D data from one format to another.
• Derive and display analytical surfaces such as slope, aspect, and viewshed from elevation models.
• Create and display surface models by interpolation from point data.
• Create an animation file in ArcGlobe.
