Hello,

I would like to export all results of an interactive viewshed analysis. The only option is to export the viewshed points.

Do I miss something?

My Regards

Interactive viewshed creation methods—ArcGIS Pro | ArcGIS Desktop 

are you at the From Layer section?

This method is well suited for saving and reloading designs. Viewsheds can be saved as a stand-alone point layer and reimported so you can pick up where you left off.

sounds like that part is for continuing where you left off

Maybe it picks up here...

Yes, I defined point features and created a interactive viewshed analysis by layer.

But the export option delivers the same point features. I want to export the overall result. This my objective.

so you can't select the other elements and export them?

I will defer you to the video

or you will have to wait until someone else chimes in.  It would seem pretty useless if you can't save all the result

I'm not 100% certain, but it sounds like Michael is interested in exporting the viewshed analysis green/yellow/red area as a layer file.

I'm also interested in doing this very task, but I have not found a way to do it in ArcGIS Pro or in CityEngine.

Any thoughts on a way to do this or a work around?

Thank you,

Chris C

Yes, I also have such a demand recently, I want to export the result of the Viewshed analysis in ArcGIS Pro or the result of the Dome analysis in CityEngine, so that I can get the polygons of the visual extent. But I have tried many methods, and none of them seem to provide this function or API to finish this. e.g., I want get the yellow polygon in the picture below.😂

Same here. It's great to be able to save the configuration of each viewing point into a layer, but ultimately what I want to save are the results And those I would like to put on arcgis online so that my client can see the final results of multiple configurations, enabling them to make a decision based on which viewshed configuration would be most suitable for them.
