Topics covered

  • Hardware requirements
  • Digital Elevation Models (DEMs) and Triangulated Irregular Networks (TINs)
  • 2 1/2 D visualization (shaded relief, viewshed, slope, aspect, etc.)
  • Extruding 2D features using attributes to create 3D features
  • Draping imagery
  • Animated "fly" through's

Note:

Familiarity with ArcView is assumed.
