multiple profiles (transects) using a DEM

Ernesto_Tonatiuhmendoza_ponce — Thu, 16 Jan 2014 20:27:05 GMT

The 3D anlayst allows you to do 1 transect and export a elevation profile from a DEM.

Does anyone know about a script that enables to use multiple transects ?

I am trying to obtain several beach profiles using a (1m x 1m) DEM obtained form a LIDAR survey.

regards

Ernesto

Have a look at this tool?

Thanks for the reply,

From what I read from the help, the tool creates a table and optional graph denoting the profile of line features over one or more multipatch, raster, TIN, or terrain models. Thus uses multiple rasters with only one profile or transect.

I need the opposite, several transects over one DEM. plus I´ve looked for the tool and apparently it is only on arcgis 10.2 and I have
arcgis 10.0

Thanks again.
