Description

Indicates whether a point based data source is not included in the filtering process when building the terrain pyramid. If TRUE, the points will be present through all pyramid levels.

 

Notes:

Intended use is in support of critical points that must always be represented in the terrain model, regardless of the level of detail being used.

The number of points is assumed to be relatively small, seeing as they are never thinned through all pyramid levels.

Multipoints are not supported; only points. This is based on the assumption critical points will not be packed together into multipoints and helps ensure a mistake is not made to anchor a large multipoint feature class.
