Possible Tool

Question

Hi! I'm pretty new to arcGIS Pro and am trying to find if there is tool where: if from a specific elevation I will be able to see what trees need to be cut down to see the horizon line (sunset) if I know the height of the trees. I've looked at viewshed but I can't input the layer of trees to see which ones need to be removed. TIA!

Hi Taylor,

Here is the set of tools available in analysis tab in ArcGIS Pro (Refer Screens shot),

Step 1: Exploratory Analysis under the Analysis tab

Step 2: Select Viewshed tool

Under Exploratory Analysis Viewshed tools set the following parameters
i.e. Initial Viewpoint, Viewshed Angles, Viewshed Distance and Select the creation method. (Refere Screenshot)

Step 3: Place the cursor and click the elevation point from where you wants to see the visibility.

Regards,

Kiran
