ETS_VolumeOfPolygons

Calculates the Volume and 3D Area of the polygons from the input polygon dataset based on user assigned level or different levels for each polygon from a field in the attribute table and the surface defined by an ESRI TIN or PolygonZ TIN. The Volume calculated for each polygon is split in two portions - above and below the surface.

Inputs:

A polygon feature class
An ESRI TIN or PolygonZ TIN
Level for all polygons or field from the attribute table containing the level information.

Outputs:

A polygon feature class with several new fields added
- ET_VAbove - Volume of the polygon above the surface
- ET_VBelow - Volume of the polygon below the surface
- ET_Area3D - 3D Area of the polygon
- ET_Area - 2D Area of the polygon
All attributes of the original polygons are preserved.

ToolBox implementation

Command line syntax - two different toolbox tools available depending on the type of the input TIN. Check the color coding for specifics.

ETS_GPVolumeOfPolygonsEsriTIN <Input Dataset> <Input ESRI TIN> <Out Feature Class> {Level Field} {Level}

ETS_GPVolumeOfPolygonsPolygonZTIN <Input Dataset> <Input PolygonZ TIN> <Out Feature Class> {Level Field} {Level}

Parameters

Expression	Explanation
<Input Dataset>	A Polygon feature layer or feature class
<Input ESRI TIN>	An ESRI TIN layer or dataset
<Input PolygonZ TIN>	A PolygonZ TIN (feature class)
<Out Feature Class>	A String - the full name of the output feature class.
{Level Field}	A String indicating the field name of the input polygon attribute table to be used for levels of the polygons
{Level}	A Double indicating the level for all input polygons
