Converts Grid raster models to polylines, provided mainly to convert DEMs (digital elevation models) to contours.
Parameter |
Comments |
Input Grid <raster_layer> |
Input Grid in ArcGIS supported formats. |
Raster Band {raster_band} |
Raster band index to be used in conversion. Indexes start with 0, and as DEMs are single-band rasters then the raster band index is 0 in most cases for this tool. |
Output Storage <output_dataset> |
Output polyline feature class. |
Z Field Name {z_field} |
Name of the field with Z values in the output feature class. |
Base Contour {base_contour} |
Base contour value. |
Contour Interval {contour_interval} |
An interval between each two contours. |
Z Factor {value_factor} |
Z scaling multiplier. |
Drop Bounding Contours {drop_bounding_contours} |
Specifies if bounding contours should be dropped in the output contours. |

This XTools Pro geoprocessing tool is identical to the XTools Pro Grid to Contours surface tool.
