Intersect 3D Line With Surface (3D Analyst)

ArcGIS Pro 3.4 | | Help archive

Summary

Computes the geometric intersection of 3D line features and one or more surfaces to return the intersection as segmented line features and points.

Usage

  • All of the input line features will be in the output line feature class even if they do not intersect a surface.

  • The following fields are included in the output line feature class:

    • OID_ORG—The OBJECTID value from the original 3D line feature
    • SURF_FROM—The surface where the 3D line segment began
    • SURF_TO—The surface where the 3D line segment was drawn
  • The following fields are included in the optional output point feature class:

    • OID_LINE—The OBJECTID value from the original 3D line feature
    • SURFACE—The surface name where the intersecting point was generated
    • DIST_ALONG—The distance from the beginning of the 3D line to the point of intersection
