Contours from Single Raster Value

The Contours from Single Raster tool converts a single raster value, such as a DEM, into a vector contour coverage. Users can specify the contour interval and optionally the base contour value.

Input parameters

  • Input surface raster file – Select the file that will be modified.
  • Base contour height – Specifies the elevation level at which the first contour line will be drawn.
  • Smoothing filter size (in num. points), e.g. 3, 5, 7, 9, 11 – Defines the size of the mean filter applied to the contour vertices, with the size specified as an odd integer like 3, 5, 7, 9, or 11.
  • Tolerance factor, in degrees (0-45); determines generalization level – Controls the level of contour line generalization by setting the minimum angular deflection required to keep vertices.

Output parameters

  • Output contour coverage – Enter the name for the new generated coverage.
