What's the best way to draw an arc in ArcGIS Pro?
The 'create features --> create circular arc' only works for 2D (from what I can see).
I can import a table with coordinates & Z field, but just wondering if this is the best way.
Thanks in advance.
Screen capture - I would like to create an arc as shown in the example below:
Where you able to get this figured out? I'm sure it is possible, but I'm just overlooking some small item.
Best,

I figured out a way to create the 3D arcs manually.
It’s a multi-step process that involves creating a table of X & Y for all the points of the path you want to turned into a 3D arc, then calculating the Z value (in metres) using a formula: X^2*-1 + D2.
I was planning to create a model for the process.
I’m happy to share the steps with you (or the model if I get around to making it).
I was hoping to find a more efficient way to do this, or even better, an ArcGIS tool to do it for me! I suspect you’re after the something.
Yes, I would be happy with either.
Thank you,
Heath
What is D2 in your formula: X^2*-1 + D2?
Hei. I have the a little bit of the same problem. I am trying to visualize projectile trajectory in arcgis. can you help me out?
Hi NickShannon,
I am revisiting this problem I have creating an arc. Could you elaborate on what X and D stand for and how they are calculated? If possible could you provide and example?
Best
Heath
