ElevationExtractor
Extracts a feature’s first z coordinate value, storing it in an attribute.
Typical Uses
-
Extracting elevations from geometry to an attribute for further processing.
How does it work?
The ElevationExtractor receives any type of geometry and extracts the z coordinate value of the feature’s first coordinate into an attribute.
If the input feature is 2D, the Elevation output attribute will receive a value of zero (0).
Rasters, including elevation models, will also receive an elevation value of zero (0).
