About River Flattening The River Flattening command opens the River Flattening dialog that captures input for flattening river polygons perpendicular to the flow. A river polygon layer, and centerline layer is required to execute the flattening process. Note: The River Flattening command is only available in LP360 for ArcMap. In LP360, as of v2018.2, it…
LP360 has a wealth of supported vertical datums available to the user. However, there are some vertical datums, or specific geoids, not present in the current database (e.g. NAVD88 – Geoid 18). If the imported data is already in the desired coordinate reference system (CRS) using a Geiod not present in the LP360 database, the…
User sees large voids when displaying point cloud data in LP360. This usually occurs when combining dense and sparse point cloud datasets or displaying terrestrial scanner points clouds. The reason points don’t display properly is that points close to each other spatially are not physically near to one another in the LAS file structure. Here…

User encounters an error message when starting ArcMap with the LP360 for ArcGIS extension stating, “Error setting active layer”. If the user clicks through this error message, basic functionality and display issues will occur, often times leading to software crashes. The crash is happening because ArcMap and/or LP360 is not properly installed and/or registered. Re-installing…
While using LP360 the user receives the error message, “Out of Memory in CPointCacheManager”. The error message indicates that the system was unable to allocate the additional memory requested by LP360. If this occurs while drawing a long or wide profile, follow the instructions in the error message, “reduce the size of the Profile and…
GeoCue, Terrasolid and LP360 can all output Raster files with different Bit Depths. The bit depth (sometimes called pixel depth) of a cell determines the range of values that a particular raster file can store, which is based on the formula 2n (where n is the bit depth). For example, an 8-bit raster can have…
While executing the Reproject Point Cloud Task to take data from a known Spatial Reference System (SRS) to a custom or user-defined coordinate system (32767) the user encounters an error message stating, “Error using the output coordinate system: Failed to set target coordinate system from WKT. GDAL importFromWKT() returned 5. The custom or user-define coordinate…

Summary: The feature edit toolbar in LP360 has a function that allows the user to create features based on identified features. In this document, we will review a workflow for creating contour features that will represent elevation changes for an area. This could be useful for a flood plain map and other planning purposes: Creating…
