IPolycurve3D.Densify3D Method

Converts this Polycurve into a piecewise linear approximation of itself.

[Visual Basic .NET]
Public Sub Densify3D ( _
    ByVal maxSegmentLength As Double, _
    ByVal maxDeviation As Double _
)
[C#]
public void Densify3D (
    double maxSegmentLength,
    double maxDeviation
);
[C++]
HRESULT Densify3D(
  double maxSegmentLength,
  double maxDeviation
);
[C++]
Parameters
maxSegmentLength 

maxSegmentLength is a parameter of type double maxDeviation
maxDeviation is a parameter of type double

Product Availability

Available with ArcGIS Engine, ArcGIS Desktop, and ArcGIS Server.

Description

Converts Polycurve into a Polycurve composed of Line segments with 3D length maxSegmentLength (or less) that are within maxDeviation of the original polycurve.  If maxDeviation = 0, maxDeviation is ignored and Line segments with length maxSegmentLength are constructed with vertices laying on the original curve.  All of the segments in the final polyline will be 3D Lines.

[C#]

 

        public static void Densify3D()

        {

               const double DensifyMaxSegmentLength = 2.43; 

               const double DensifyMaxDeviation = 2;

 

               IGeometry polylineGeometry = GetPolylineGeometry();

               IPolycurve3D polycurve3D = polylineGeometry as IPolycurve3D;

               polycurve3D.Densify3D(DensifyMaxSegmentLength, DensifyMaxDeviation);

        }
