    ElevationLayerCreationParams Constructor(CIMDataConnection)
    In This Topic
    Creates a parameter object with ArcGIS.Core.CIM.CIMDataConnection.
    Syntax
    public ElevationLayerCreationParams( 
       CIMDataConnection sourceLayerDataConnection
    )
    Public Function New( _
       ByVal sourceLayerDataConnection As CIMDataConnection _
    )

    Parameters

    sourceLayerDataConnection
    A ArcGIS.Core.CIM.CIMDataConnection object.
    Example
    Create a New Elevation Surface
    //Note: call within QueuedTask.Run()
    //Define a ServiceConnection to use for the new Elevation surface
    var serverConnection = new CIMInternetServerConnection
    {
      Anonymous = true,
      HideUserProperty = true,
      URL = "https://elevation.arcgis.com/arcgis/services"
    };
    CIMAGSServiceConnection serviceConnection = new CIMAGSServiceConnection
    {
      ObjectName = "WorldElevation/Terrain",
      ObjectType = "ImageServer",
      URL = "https://elevation.arcgis.com/arcgis/services/WorldElevation/Terrain/ImageServer",
      ServerConnection = serverConnection
    };
    //Defines a new elevation source set to the CIMAGSServiceConnection defined above
    //At 2.x - var newElevationSource = new ArcGIS.Core.CIM.CIMElevationSource
    //{
    //  VerticalUnit = ArcGIS.Core.Geometry.LinearUnit.Meters,
    //  DataConnection = serviceConnection,
    //  Name = "WorldElevation/Terrain",
    //  Visibility = true
    //};
    //The elevation surface
    //At 2.x - var newElevationSurface = new ArcGIS.Core.CIM.CIMMapElevationSurface
    //{
    //  Name = "New Elevation Surface",
    //  BaseSources = new ArcGIS.Core.CIM.CIMElevationSource[1] { newElevationSource },
    //  Visibility = true,
    //  ElevationMode = ElevationMode.CustomSurface,
    //  VerticalExaggeration = 1,
    //  EnableSurfaceShading = false,
    //  SurfaceTINShadingMode = SurfaceTINShadingMode.Smooth,
    //  Expanded = false,
    //  MapElevationID = "{3DEC3CC5-7C69-4132-A700-DCD5BDED14D6}"
    //};
    //Get the active map
    var map = MapView.Active.Map;
    //Get the elevation surfaces defined in the map
    //At 2.x - var listOfElevationSurfaces = definition.ElevationSurfaces.ToList();
    var listOfElevationSurfaces = map.GetElevationSurfaceLayers();
    //Add the new elevation surface 
    //At 2.x - listOfElevationSurfaces.Add(newElevationSurface);
    var elevationLyrCreationParams = new ElevationLayerCreationParams(serviceConnection);
    var elevationSurface = LayerFactory.Instance.CreateLayer<ElevationSurfaceLayer>(
           elevationLyrCreationParams, map);
