I am trying to convert vertical line (cross-section) features to the polygone, but all regular arcGIS tools (eg. Feature to Polygone) that I applied can't convert vertical lines to vertical polygons.



Do you know a tool that can do it automatically ?



line feature that I need to convert to polygone



I also have point feature class with xyz coordinates of every pointpoints with xyz values

  • I suppose you want to compute discharge with sub-section method. I would use each vertical as input taking account i + i+1 pair of points to create n polygons. If verticals are equal-spaced, create a set of vertical lines to split the dissolved polygon of image 1

  • You should be able to do it using cursors (search/update/insertcursor, pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/arcpy/data-access/…) and the shape tokens. That way you could read the Z values and write these as X or Y values. Will be a bit tricky though..

  • if the lines are equal in distance, you can create buffer on the vertical lines.

I have not done any testing, but from the documentation it sounds like ArcGIS 3D Analyst supports Creating a vertical line segment.



However, 3D polygon interiors present additional challenges so:




Completely vertical polygons are not supported in the geodatabase as
they are flagged as zero-area polygons.
