Hi there,
is there a possibility to create spot heights from areas. I generated contours from dem but now i want to genrete spotheights and it would be very cool to generate these point features by selecting an contourline and than say find the highest point in that region.
Thanks,
Markus

Hi Markus, When you generate the contours, choose the option to Generate Area Features Colored Based on the Current Elevation Shader in Addition to Contours.
Then you can select one of the area features in the location you are interested in, go back Contour Generation Options dialog and choose the option to Generate Spot Elevations at Max/Min Elevations on the contour options tab, then go to the Contour Bound tab and choose the option to Crop to Selected Area Feature. When you click OK, this will create Max and Min points on your area of interest.
I hope this helps!
