Property VerticalResolution

VerticalResolution

Gets the minimum distance that separates unique z-values when stored in an ArcGISFeatureTable.

Declaration
public double VerticalResolution { get; }
Property Value
Type Description
System.Double

The minimum distance that separates unique z-values when stored in an ArcGISFeatureTable.

Remarks

The vertical resolution represents the detail in which a feature class records the location and shape of features, defining the number of decimal places or significant digits stored. It is the minimum distance that separates z-values in the Geometry of an ArcGISFeature. Any z-values that differ by less than the vertical resolution will be stored as the same z-value. The units of VerticalResolution are the units of the vertical coordinate system (VerticalUnit) defined when this spatial reference was created, if one was set.

A separate resolution, Resolution, is defined for the distance between x,y coordinates.

Spatial references have default precision properties, and Esri strongly recommends using the default values in most cases. However some high-accuracy workflows customize the default values to preserve their data with higher precision. To store coordinates using a non-default resolution, create a new dataset that uses a custom resolution spatial reference - for example by setting SpatialReference when creating a new geodatabase table. See SpatialReferenceBuilder for more information about creating spatial references with custom precision values.
