Extract building geometry from a mesh

[TelmaFernandes2]

Hi everyone,

I used the Extract Multipatch from Mesh tool to get multipatch layers from an Integrated mesh scene layer. I was able to convert to multipatch with no problem, the texture stayed the same. However, I can't select the buildings individually, only by areas. Is there any way around this other than manually creating individual footprint features?

I have attached a picture to help understand what I am saying.

Thank you!

Hi @TelmaFernandes2

Have you tried the Explode or Split editing tools? They might do the trick.

Hi Taren,

I create modifications to the Mesh, by creating a Mask I was able to extract each building. However in a very large area it can be a time consuming job to "cut" one by one. Is there no way to extract the individual buildings from the mesh more automatically?
