An overview of the Banding toolset

The Banding toolset contains tools that generate polygon bands for use in cartographic elements in defense mapping products.

ToolDescription

Create Bands From Raster

Creates an elevation bands feature class from a Digital Terrain Elevation Data (DTED) raster dataset. The resulting feature class is used by the Elevation Guide Bar surround element to display the high and low elevation areas on a Topographic Line Map (TLM) using a series of hypsometric gray bands.

Create JOG Elevation Tint Bands from Features

Converts contour polylines into elevation tint band polygon features. The features can be used to represent different elevation levels on a Joint Operations Graphic (JOG).

Create Smooth TLM Elevation Guide Bands from Raster

Creates smooth band features for an Elevation Guide Box surround element. This element is frequently used on defense map products such as Topographic Line Maps (TLMs). Band features refer to elevation bands derived from a raster.

Create TLM Elevation Guide Bands from Features

Creates banding features that can be used to generate the Elevation Guide Box element for a Topographic Line Map (TLM).
