Line of Sight Dialog

(Only available in ArcGIS)

The Line of Sight dialog is used to control inputs into the line of sight analysis as well as visualization components displayed on the screen after the analysis is complete.

The inputs that affect the analysis of the line of sight are the heights of the observer and target. You may input the height of the observer and target as a relative value to the LIDAR surface or as an absolute height.

Visualization components include the colors used to mark the location of the observer, target, and, if necessary, an obstruction point. The dialog also allows you to rotate the line of sight about the observer or target, as well as flip the observer and target positions.
