ET Surface is a set of tools for ArcGIS that enable the
users to create surfaces and perform surface analysis without the need of 3D or
Surface Analyst extensions. The only requirement is an ArcGIS license (ArcView,
ArcEditor or ArcInfo).
Main Features:
-
Create PolygonZ TIN from points, polylines or
polygons
-
Profile Extractor
-
Create profile of multiple surfaces (ESRI
TIN, Raster, PolygonZ TIN)
-
Draw profiles for
