Global Mapper v25.0

Viewshed script is running without errors but not producing any viewshed.

Hello,

I have put together a script to run a viewshed analysis. It runs without any error and produces a viewshed layer in the Control Centre. However, it only contains 1 feature which is not visible. For reference, other similarly sized viewsheds I've done have about 20,000 features. Any idea what has gone wrong?

    Hello,

    Have you tried running a viewshed analysis with the same parameters and data in the UI?  If you do that and are still having problems, I suggest that you contact Blue Marble Support directly via email (geohelp@bluemarblegeo.com). Please include your script and the associated data so the support team can attempt to reproduce your result and determine the cause. Thanks.

    Cheers,
    Bob
  • Hi Bob,

    Yes, when I run the viewshed analysis manually, it works perfectly.
