•The service containing the height info raster layers has to be configured as ArcGIS Server Map Service in the Map Collection.

•The data for the height info raster layers have to be in a FGDB or Enterprise Geodatabase (SDE).

•For 3D measuring capability the configuration of an elevation layer is mandatory.

•These functions are only possible on raster data in the map services - the data must therefore be integrated as Raster Dataset or Raster Catalog. Mosaic datasets are not supported for these functions.

Raster layer ID

Unique ID of raster layer with elevation/slope/exposition/surface elevation information.

Raster band

Raster band index to fetch data from

•The elevation layer has to be a raster DEM (no TINs are supported) of a raster data type supported by Esri.

•The elevation layer has to contain the elevation information in a specified raster band.

•The projected coordinate system has to be metric as well as the elevation information.

•The raster dataset can be in a different coordinate system than the main map service (projection-on-the-fly is supported).

•The configuration of a slope layer is optional and only affects the measuring results of a 3D measure area.

•The slope layer has to be a raster with slope information in a specified raster band.

•The slope information has to be in DEGREE (PERCENT is not supported).

•The configuration of an aspect layer is optional.

•Aspect data have to be stored in a specified raster band and values have to be -1 for flat.

•Aspect data values have to be from 0 (DEGREE) from North to 360 (DEGREE) clockwise.

•The configuration of an surface elevation layer is optional.

•The surface elevation layer has to contain the elevation information in a specified raster band.

•The projected coordinate system has to be metric as well as the elevation information.

Fill color elevation layer

Specifies the fill color of the area below the elevation graph

Line color elevation layer

Specifies the line color of the elevation graph

Fill type elevation layer

Specifies the fill type of the area below the elevation graph

Line type elevation layer

Specifies the outline type of the elevation graph

Line width elevation layer

Specifies the line width of the elevation graph

Transparency level elevation layer [%]

Specifies the transparency level of the fill color of the elevation graph in percent. 100% means total transparency (invisibility), 0% means full color.

Fill color surface

Specifies the fill color of the area between the surface graph and the elevation graph.

Line color surface

Specifies the line color of the surface graph

Fill type surface

Specifies the fill type of the area between the surface graph and the elevation graph.

Line type surface

Specifies the outline type of the surface graph

Line width surface

Specifies the line width of the surface model

Transparency level surface [%]

Specifies the transparency level of the fill color of the surface graph in percent. 100% means total transparency (invisibility), 0% means full color.

Color of vertices

Specifies the color used for highlighting the vertex points of the original line

Size of vertex markers

Size of the markers - 0 means no markers will be displayed

•Querying height info raster layers of groups works in a special way. The defined order in the project configuration is used to find the first configured layer to be queried. It this is not possible (because this layer does not exist in the respective map extent), the query is passed to the next available layer in order. This method is used until information can be sent back to the client.

•In order to always show the raster information with the best resolution, the administrator should take this into account when configuring the order to grouped height info raster layers.

Name of the layer group

This name is used for 3D measurements based on data from this layer group.

•See chapters Measure - Point, Measure - Distance and Measure - Area for details about the configuration of measuring in WebOffice author standalone.

•See chapter Measure/Markup for details about measuring in the WebOffice core client.

•See chapters Measure Distance and Measure Area for details about measuring in the WebOffice flex client.

•If you have problems with the tool see also chapter Rasterinfo.
