ArcGIS Notes

While many of the features of this tool are the same between ArcGIS Pro and ArcGIS, there are some major differences. So for the convenience of those using Arc Hydro Groundwater in ArcGIS, all the documentation relevant to ArcGIS is found below, even if it's a repeat from documentation above.


The Import XS2D Image Wizard dialog is accessed by clicking AHGW Build XS2D Background Icon.png Import XS2D Image Wizard on the Arc Hydro Groundwater Toolbar. This tool helps register a digital cross section image for use in building 2D cross sections in ArcGIS.

The dialog contains the following pages:

  • Step 1: Cross Section Setup
  • Step 2: Image Registration
  • Step 3: Cross Sections Panels and Panel Dividers
  • Step 4: Grid Lines

Cross Section Setup
