I am curious if there is a way to create a path on a DEM from one point to another? I used lidar to create my DEM. Any ideas?</P> Sun, 24 Jan 2021 20:08:25 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-pro-questions/create-a-path/m-p/1019486#M36305 RobertTeaff 2021-01-24T20:08:25Z https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-pro-questions/create-a-path/m-p/1019495#M36308 <P>There are many types of "paths"</P><P>Cost path?</P><P><A href="https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/latest/tool-reference/raster-analysis/cost-path-as-polyline.htm" target="_blank">Cost Path As Polyline (Raster Analysis)—ArcGIS Pro | Documentation</A></P><P>Shortest path?</P><P><A href="https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/latest/tool-reference/raster-analysis/determine-travel-cost-paths-to-destinations.htm" target="_blank">Determine Travel Cost Paths To Destinations (Raster Analysis)—ArcGIS Pro | Documentation</A></P><P>your end goal would be useful</P> Sun, 24 Jan 2021 21:03:27 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-pro-questions/create-a-path/m-p/1019495#M36308 DanPatterson 2021-01-24T21:03:27Z https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-pro-questions/create-a-path/m-p/1019501#M36310 <P>I am attempting to find the shortest distance between the two points. Supposedly where I am looking at there are an old wagon trail that can still be made out and I am not sure where to look. So I figured that they would take the shortest and smoothest path between the two places. Does that make sense?&nbsp;</P> Sun, 24 Jan 2021 22:29:35 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-pro-questions/create-a-path/m-p/1019501#M36310 RobertTeaff 2021-01-24T22:29:35Z https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-pro-questions/create-a-path/m-p/1019504#M36311 <P>Unless the wagon trail could be delineated using a flow direction/accumulation/streamflow process, I suspect you will have some difficulty coming up with a set of rules to delineate it.</P> Sun, 24 Jan 2021 22:51:14 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-pro-questions/create-a-path/m-p/1019504#M36311 DanPatterson 2021-01-24T22:51:14Z https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-pro-questions/create-a-path/m-p/1019505#M36312 <P>Ok, I dont think that would work either. there are hills and small canyons between the two.
