This tool could leverage existing capabilities in ArcGIS Pro, such as raster-to-multipatch conversion and elevationInfo, making it a feasible and powerful enhancement for 3D visualization workflows.
This potential new feature is in our backlog but it's not yet planned for a release. Could you describe the scenarios where having multiple 3D surfaces would be beneficial? This will help us prioritize our roadmap (feel free to attach screenshot or data).
To address the limitation in Scene Viewer where only one stretched raster can be displayed at a given ground elevation, a dedicated “Multi-Surface Elevation Manager” should be introduced.
This tool would allow users to:
Load multiple continuous rasters.
Automatically convert each raster to 3D geometry (e.g., multipatch or voxel).
Apply user-defined color stretches per layer.
Set per-layer vertical offsets and exaggeration.
Publish each as an independent scene layer that can be toggled, reordered, and queried.
Additionally, Scene Viewer should include a slider to fine-tune vertical offset and exaggeration after publication.
