All Implemented Interfaces:

GPTool

public class EditTin
extends AbstractGPTool

Adds feature classes to an existing TIN and creates surface features of a TIN based on an input feature class. The Edit TIN tool is contained in the 3D Analyst Tools tool box.

Usage tips:

• Multiple feature classes can be added at the same time.
• Before features can be added to a TIN, the TIN must be defined using the Create TIN function.
• Features may be added to a newly created or existing TIN.
• You can resize the Input Feature Class properties dialog box to increase its width in case the default column width is too small.
• The maximum allowable size of a TIN varies relative to free, contiguous, memory resources. Ten to 15 million nodes represents the largest size achievable under normal operating conditions with Win32. Regardless, it's strongly recommended to cap the size at a few million for the sake of usability and performance. Anything larger than this is best represented using a Terrain dataset.

Constructor Detail

EditTin

public EditTin()

Creates the Edit TIN tool with defaults.

Initializes the array of tool parameters with the default values specified when the tool was created.

EditTin

public EditTin(Object inTin,
               Object inFeatures)

Creates the Edit TIN tool with the required parameters.

Initializes the array of tool parameters with the values as specified for the required parameters and with the default values for the other parameters.

Parameters:

inTin - the TIN to which features will be added.

inFeatures - add references to one or more feature classes that will be included in the TIN. For each feature class you'll need to set properties that indicate how it's used to define the surface.

Method Detail

getInTin

public Object getInTin()

Returns the Input TIN parameter of this tool . This parameter is the TIN to which features will be added. This is a required parameter.

Returns:

the Input TIN

setInTin

public void setInTin(Object inTin)

Sets the Input TIN parameter of this tool . This parameter is the TIN to which features will be added. This is a required parameter.

Parameters:

inTin - the TIN to which features will be added.

getInFeatures

public Object getInFeatures()

Returns the Input Feature Class parameter of this tool . This parameter is add references to one or more feature classes that will be included in the TIN. For each feature class you'll need to set properties that indicate how it's used to define the surface. This is a required parameter.

Returns:

the Input Feature Class

setInFeatures

public void setInFeatures(Object inFeatures)

Sets the Input Feature Class parameter of this tool . This parameter is add references to one or more feature classes that will be included in the TIN. For each feature class you'll need to set properties that indicate how it's used to define the surface. This is a required parameter.

Parameters:

inFeatures - add references to one or more feature classes that will be included in the TIN. For each feature class you'll need to set properties that indicate how it's used to define the surface.

getConstrainedDelaunay

public String getConstrainedDelaunay()

Returns the Constrained Delaunay parameter of this tool . This parameter is a constrained Delaunay triangulation conforms to Delaunay rules everywhere except along breaklines. When using conforming Delaunay triangulation, breaklines are densified by the software, therefore one input breakline segment can result in multiple triangle edges. When using constrained Delaunay triangulation no densication occurs and each breakline segment is added as a single edge. This is an optional parameter.

Returns:

the Constrained Delaunay

setConstrainedDelaunay

public void setConstrainedDelaunay(String constrainedDelaunay)

Sets the Constrained Delaunay parameter of this tool . This parameter is a constrained Delaunay triangulation conforms to Delaunay rules everywhere except along breaklines. When using conforming Delaunay triangulation, breaklines are densified by the software, therefore one input breakline segment can result in multiple triangle edges. When using constrained Delaunay triangulation no densication occurs and each breakline segment is added as a single edge. This is an optional parameter.

Parameters:

constrainedDelaunay - a constrained Delaunay triangulation conforms to Delaunay rules everywhere except along breaklines. When using conforming Delaunay triangulation, breaklines are densified by the software, therefore one input breakline segment can result in multiple triangle edges. When using constrained Delaunay triangulation no densication occurs and each breakline segment is added as a single edge.

getDerivedOutTin

public Object getDerivedOutTin()

Returns the Output TIN parameter of this tool (Read only). This is an derived parameter.

Returns:

the Output TIN

getToolName

public String getToolName()

Returns the name of this tool.

Returns:

the tool name

getToolboxName

public String getToolboxName()

Returns the name of the tool box containing this tool.

Returns:

the tool box name

getToolboxAlias

public String getToolboxAlias()

Returns the alias of the tool box containing this tool.

Returns:

the tool box alias
