On "Obtain heights for layer from surface" choose the DEM.

I'm interested in this topic as well. I'm having a problem with my aerial image when I add it to ArcScene. When I add the image it becomes very pixelated. The quality of the imagery changes and looks terrible. However, in ArcMap the imagery is beautiful, great quality. Any help would be great. Thanks.</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Wed, 10 Nov 2010 16:49:07 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/3d-questions/add-elevation-information-to-aerial-image/m-p/384301#M2273 KennyMorris 2010-11-10T16:49:07Z Re: add elevation information to aerial image https://community.esri.com/t5/3d-questions/add-elevation-information-to-aerial-image/m-p/384302#M2274 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><BLOCKQUOTE class="jive-quote">I'm having a problem with my aerial image when I add it to ArcScene.

The quality of the imagery can be controlled by adjusting the 'Quality enhancement for raster images' slider in the Layer Properties &gt; Rendering tab.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>However, if you are working with fairly large imagery, it would be best to consider setting up your 3D document in ArcGlobe, which features a much more robust support for larger datasets.
