Refine UGrid Tool

Refine UGrid

The Refine UGrid tool creates a 2D UGrid that has been refined based on an existing 2D UGrid and one or more elevation rasters.

Input parameters

• Grid – Select the 2D UGrid that will be refined.
• Default constant value – Enter a value for the desired average cell size for the new UGrid. It is important to note that the tool will refine the entire grid. If the default value is too small then there may be a long computation time for the tool. Entering a value that is too large may cause an error.
• Error threshold – Enter a value to guide the acceptable threshold for error for the grid refinement.
• Maximum iterations – The tool will perform multiple iterations when refining the new UGrid. Enter the maximum number of iterations to perform. The tool will stop performing iterations once it has reached the maximum limit if it has not completed refinement before this value is reached.
• Raster 1 (highest priority) – The elevation raster that will be used for refinement. This raster will be given priority over any additional rasters being used.
• Raster n – Allows selecting an additional raster to use in refinement.

Output parameters

• Output UGrid name – Enter the name for the new refined UGrid.
