    IGeoDataset sourceDataset,
    IGeoDataset accumulationRaster,
    double snapDistance
);

[C++]

  IGeoDataset* sourceDataset,
  IGeoDataset* accumulationRaster,
  double snapDistance
);

[C++]
Parameters

  accumulationRaster is a parameter of type IGeoDataset*
snapDistance [in]

  snapDistance is a parameter of type double

Product Availability

Available with ArcGIS Engine, ArcGIS Desktop, and ArcGIS Server. Requires Spatial Analyst Extension.

Remarks

sourceDataset	an input Raster, RasterDataset, RasterBand, or RasterDescriptor or FeatureClass, FeatureClassDescriptor of cells to be used as pour points Cells that are not NoData will be considered pour points and will be snapped.
accumulationRaster	a Raster of accumulated flow, created with the IHydrology::FlowAccumulation method.
snapDistance	the maximum distance in map units, to search for a cell of higher accumulated flow A common snap distance is zero, the same as if SnapPourPoint was not used.

The method returns a reference to a Raster object.
