Performing Viewshed Analysis in ArcGIS Pro


Performing Viewshed Analysis in ArcGIS Pro 

  • Add the project data to a new map document.
  • In the Catalog pane, browse to Databases, and then expand the VSPro geodatabase.
  • On the Map tab, chose Streets to change the basemap.
  •  In the Format Polygon Symbol pane, click Properties, and then specify the following parameters:

  • Color: No Color
  • Outline Color: Mars Red (row 3, column 2)
  • Outline Width: 2 pt

  • The fields view opens, and the Fields tab opens on the ribbon. The fields view shows the content and format for each field in the LightLocations attribute table.
  • For Field Name, type OFFSETA.
  • The OFFSETA field will affect the height from which the viewshed will be created. It is a vertical distance in surface units to be added to the elevation of the observation point.
  • Add the following additional fields to the fields view:

  • AZIMUTH1
  • AZIMUTH2
  • RADIUS2


  • In the Geoprocessing pane, in the search field, type viewshed.,Click Viewshed (3D Analyst Tools), and then specify the following parameters:

  • Input Raster: NY_DEM
  • Input Point Or Polyline Observer Features: LightLocations
  • Output Raster: ..\EsriTraining\ProViewshedAnalysis\VSPro.gdb\Viewshed_3m



  • On the Analysis tab, in the Raster group, click Raster Functions .
  • In the Raster Functions pane, expand Math: Logical.
  • Click Greater Than .
  • In the Greater Than Properties pane, specify the following parameters:

  • General tab
    • Output Pixel Type: 8 Bit Unsigned
  • Parameters tab
    • Raster: Viewshed_3m
    • Raster2: 2


  • In the Contents pane, right-click LightLocations and choose Attribute Table.
  • In the attribute table, right-click OFFSETA and choose Calculate Field .
  • In the Calculate Field dialog box, specify the following parameters:
  • Input Table: LightLocations
  • Field Name (Existing Or New): OFFSETA
  • OFFSETA = 10




  • If necessary, in the Geoprocessing pane, click the Back button 
  • In the Recent section, click the Viewshed (3D Analyst Tools) tool.
  • In the Viewshed pane, specify the following parameters:

  • Input Raster: NY_DEM
  • Input Point Or Polyline Observer Features: LightLocations
  • Output Raster: ..\EsriTraining\ProViewshedAnalysis\VSPro.gdb\Viewshed_10m

  • On the Analysis tab, click Raster Functions .
  • In the Raster Functions pane, expand Math: Logical, if necessary, and click Greater Than .
  • In the Greater Than Properties pane, specify the following parameters:

  • General tab
    • Output Pixel Type: 8 Bit Unsigned
  • Parameters tab
    • Raster: Viewshed_10m
    • Raster2: 2

Final project(UAS data mapping mission)

Image
Required for the mission:         Mobile device with supporting mission planning software          A UAS Platform/Sensor of your choice I was asked to fly an assigned mission plot at PWA with this parameter. Altitude: 122m Lateral and Frontal Overlap: 80% Use the search function to find and open the Add Z Information (3D Analyst Tools) tool. This tool calculates properties of 3D shapes and appends the result to the attribute table of the input feature class. In this step, you will calculate the length of each sight line. Set the following parameters: Input Features: LOS_Lines Output Property: 3-Dimensional Length      The purpose of this project is to conduct a UAV mission to collect aerial imagery and data for a specific area at PWA(Purdue wildlife Area). The mission area has been assigned and the goal was to fly the assigned mission area while ensuring that the flight boundaries are slightly larger than the assigned area to...

Volumetric analysis with UAS Data

Image
In a previous lab, I completed some ESRI tutorials regarding raster data analysis. This time, I engaged in raster data analysis using UAS data gathered over the course of a mine dredging operation. I needed to draw upon what I've learned in the ESRI tutorials so far. ·        Extract by mask This tool extracts the cells of a raster that correspond to the areas defined by a mask. The mask is typically a raster dataset where cells with a certain value represent the areas I want to extract. ·          Resample Resampling is the process of changing the resolution of a raster dataset. ·          Surface volume The Surface Volume tool calculates the volume between two surfaces. I began on the 4 th of July to where the mine operation tells of the dredging to take place, and for me to establish a base dataset to know how much material was added. They are also concerned about slope fai...

Performing Line of Sight Analysis by Esri

Image
Performing Line of Sight Analysis by Esri Use the search function to find and open the Construct Sight Lines (3D Analyst Tools) tool. In the Geoprocessing pane, set the following parameters: Observer Points: Observers Target Features: ParadeRoute Output: ..\EsriTraining\ProLineSight\MyData\MyData.gdb\ SightLines Observer Height Field: SHAPE.Z Target Height Field: SHAPE.Z Sampling Distance:  30 Use the search function to find and open the Line Of Sight (3D Analyst Tools) tool. Set the following parameters: Input Surface: Elevation Input Line Features: SightLines Input Features: Buildings_subset Output Feature Class: ..\EsriTraining\ProLineSight\MyData\MyData.gdb\ LOS_Lines Use the search function to find and open the Add Z Information (3D Analyst Tools) tool. This tool calculates properties of 3D shapes and appends the result to the attribute table of the input feature class. In this step, you will calculate the length of each sight line.  Set the following parameters: Input Fe...
