Summary
Extracts slope information from an input TIN into an output feature class.
Produces a polygon feature class whose polygons are determined by the input TIN's triangle slope values.
Usage
Use {class_breaks_table} to constrain slope information into specific break intervals of the output feature class.
Use a comma-delimited TXT or DBF file for a class breaks table. The table requires one column for class break values and, optionally, a second column of class codes. Also, the table needs a header row so that the first row of true data is not skipped.
Units are only honored when using a class breaks table.
Syntax
TinSlope_3d (in_tin, out_feature_class, {units}, {class_breaks_table}, {slope_field}, {z_factor})| Parameter | Explanation | Data Type |
in_tin | The input TIN. | Tin Layer |
out_feature_class | The output feature class. | Feature Class |
units (Optional) | The units of measure for the slope values. Units are honored when a class breaks table is used. | String |
class_breaks_table (Optional) | An input table containing the classification breaks that will be used to classify the output feature class. | Table |
slope_field (Optional) | The field containing slope values. | String |
z_factor (Optional) | The factor applied to the slope calculation to convert the TIN's z units to x and y units. By default, the z-factor is 1. | Double |
