Public Function Contour ( _
    ByVal GeoDataset As IGeoDataset, _
    ByVal interval As Double, _
    [ByRef base As Object] _
) As IGeoDataset
[C#]
public IGeoDataset Contour (
    IGeoDataset GeoDataset,
    double interval,
    ref object base
);
[C++]
HRESULT Contour(
  IGeoDataset* GeoDataset,
  double interval,
  Variant* base
);
[C++]
Parameters
GeoDataset [in]

GeoDataset is a parameter of type IGeoDataset* interval [in]
interval is a parameter of type double base [in, optional]
base is a parameter of type VARIANT*

geoDataset

an input Raster, RasterDataset, RasterBand, or RasterDescriptor to be contoured

interval

the contour interval to be used. This can be any positive number
