Property Zfactor

Zfactor

Gets the Z factor.

Declaration

public double Zfactor { get; }

Property Value

Type	Description
System.Double	The Z factor.

Remarks

A scaling factor used to convert the elevation values for two purposes:

• To convert the elevation units (such as meters or feet) to the horizontal coordinate units (x, y) of the dataset, which may be feet, meters, or degrees.
• To add vertical exaggeration for visual effect.

If the x, y units and z units are in the same units of measure the z-factor is 1, unless a vertical exaggeration needs to be applied. If the x, y units and z units are in different units of measure the z-factor must be set to the appropriate factor, or the results will be incorrect. For example, if your z units are feet and your x, y units are meters, you would use a z-factor of 0.3048 to convert your z units from feet to meters (1 foot = 0.3048 meter).
