Summary
Extracts slope information from the input TIN surface into polygon features.
Legacy:
This is a deprecated tool that has been superseded by the Surface Slope tool.
Usage
Use Class Breaks Table to constrain slope information into specific break intervals of the output feature class.
Use a comma-delimited .txt or .dbf file for a class breaks table. The table requires one column for class break values and, optionally, a second column of class codes. Also, the table needs a header row so that the first row of true data is not skipped.
Units are only honored when using a class breaks table.
Syntax
TinSlope(in_tin, out_feature_class, {units}, {class_breaks_table}, {slope_field}, {z_factor})| Parameter | Explanation | Data Type |
in_tin | The input TIN. | TIN Layer |
out_feature_class | The output feature class. | Feature Class |
units (Optional) | The units of measure for the slope values. Units are honored when a class breaks table is used. | String |
class_breaks_table (Optional) | An input table containing the classification breaks that will be used to classify the output feature class. | Table |
slope_field (Optional) | The field containing slope values. | String |
z_factor (Optional) | The factor applied to the slope calculation to convert the TIN's z units to x and y units. By default, the z-factor is 1. | Double |
