Features to 3D

Creates a 3D dataset from the features of existing 2D dataset (point, polyline or polygon) by deriving the values from a surface (Raster or TIN) layer.

No 3D Analyst needed!

Inputs:

• A feature layer (Point, Polygon, Polyline)
• A  surface layer (Raster or TIN)

Outputs:

• New PointZ, PolylineZ or PolygonZ dataset (depending on the input). 

Notes:

• The input feature layer and surface layer must have the same Spatial Reference
• The points/vertices that fall outside of the surface will get Z value of 999999 (NO DATA)
