With the configuration of height info raster layers the functionality of 3D measuring for the tools Measure - Point, Measure - Distance and Measure - Area is available.

This chapter contains details of configuration for every type of height info raster layers.

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

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

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

List of height info raster layer

Property

Description

Raster layer ID

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

Note: To select a raster layer from the drop down list, ensure that the MXD with the raster layers has been opened in the background.

Raster band

Raster band index to fetch data from

For measuring heights, slope and aspect, the following raster layers can be configured:

•	Elevation layer: Raster layer containing elevation data

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

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

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

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

•	Slope layer: Raster layer containing slope data.

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

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

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

•	Aspect layer: Raster layer containing aspect data

Note: The configuration of an aspect layer is optional.

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

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

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

Note: See chapter Measure/Markup for details about measuring in the WebOffice html client.

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