ETS_TIN2Nodes

Extract TIN nodes

Running programmatically

Exports the Nodes of a TIN to a new point feature class.

Inputs:

Input TIN dataset.
Output point dataset.
A Boolean indicating whether the result will be Point or PointZ (optional).

Outputs:

New Point or PointZ feature dataset.

Notes:

A new field is added to the point attribute table.
- ET_Spot - the Z value of the Node.

Running Programmatically

Parameters

Expression	Explanation
Function Name	ExtractTinNodes
<input tin>	A String representing the input TIN dataset.
<output dataset>	A String - the full name of the output point dataset.
{3D features}	A Boolean indicating whether the result will be Point or PointZ. "True" will create PointZ features. The default is "False", which will create Point features.

Running the function

ETGWPath used in the table below is the full path to ETGWRun.exe (E.G. "C:\Program Files\ETSpatial Techniques\ETSurface\ETSRun.exe")

Language	Syntax
Python	subprocess.call([ETSPath, "ExtractTinNodes", "input tin", "output dataset", "3D features"])
.NET using ETSRun.exe	StartInfo.FileName = ETSPath StartInfo.Arguments = "ExtractTinNodes" "input tin" "output dataset" "3D features"
.NET using ETSOutX.dll	ExtractTinNodes(input tin, output dataset, 3D features)
ArcPy	arcpy.ExtractTinNodes("input tin", "output dataset", "3D features")

Notes:

<> - required parameter
{} - optional parameter
See examples for Python , .NET or ArcPy
The argument separator for StartInfo.Arguments is space. If a string might contain a space, you need to double quote it.
