In This Topic

Gets elevation, slope and aspect values from the surface at the specified xy location. This method must be called on the MCT. Use QueuedTask.Run.

Syntax

C#
Visual Basic (Declaration)

   MapPoint point
)

Public Function GetSurfaceValues( _
   ByVal point As MapPoint _
) As SurfaceValues

Remarks

Bilinear interpolation is used to return the z value or elevation on the raster surface.

GetSurfaceValues will handle differences in spatial reference between the input point and the surface. It will project (a copy of) the input point to match the surface for the sake of interpolation.
