All Implemented Interfaces:

GPTool

public class SurfaceSlope
extends AbstractGPTool

Extracts slope information from an input TIN or terrain dataset into an output feature class. The Surface Slope tool is contained in the 3D Analyst Tools tool box.

Usage tips:

• 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. An example is illustrated in the following link:
• Units are only honored when using a class breaks table.
