Hi,

I need to create cross-section from borehole data in 2D or 3D. I've read that it is possible in Arcmap with 3D analyst.
Does anyone know how I can create cross section?

I found some extension like geology cross-section and .. but it only works with its sample data.
Are there any extension for free to create cross section?

Thanks.

You can use the "Create Profile Graph" tool but it is very basic stuff...

There is a $500 dollar tool by A-Prime (ESRI Business partner). It's pretty good and they do offer a free trial.

Hi,

It is possible now to create simple cross sections using 3DAnalyst.

Have a look at this video:

We are in the process of setting up a 3DGIS resource center where we'll post this exmaple including workflow documentation.
