Multipatch to raster

[Geir-OveBrandal]

I have a multipatch of a road. In some places the road overlaps with different z values, see attached "bilde1.jpg".

When I run "Multipatch to raster" I want to get the lowest z-value on the raster on these overlapping areas, but I only get the highest z-value, see attached "bilde2.jpg".

My workaround is to split the multipatch and delete the upper road, and then run Multipatch to raster, but this is time consuming.

you may be stuck ...

The output raster stores the Z values of the input multipatch features at each cell center location. To determine the Z value for each cell, a vertical line is extended from the cell center location to intersect the input multipatch features. The maximum Z value from the points of intersection is assigned to the output raster.
