      com.esri.arcgis.geoprocessing.tools.analyst3dtools.InterpolatePolyToPatch

All Implemented Interfaces:

GPTool

public class InterpolatePolyToPatch
extends AbstractGPTool

Creates surface-conforming areal features by extracting those portions of a surface that fall within the extent of input polygons as multipatches. The attributes from the input features are copied to the output. Planimetric and surface area is calculated for each feature and added as attribution to the output. The Interpolate Polygon to Multipatch tool is contained in the 3D Analyst Tools tool box.

Software restrictions: none

Usage tips:

• Convert polygons to multipatches if you are having display problems with polygons conforming to a surface.
• The Maximum Triangle Strip Size value must be 3 or larger. The recommended range is between 128 and 2048.
• The following environment settings affect this tool:
