AddViewshedLayer adds a new viewshed layer to a specified map layer object. The layer object can be any grid-based map layer, i.e. ContourLayer object, ColorReliefLayer object, ReliefLayer object, VectorLayer object, and WatershedLayer object.

Syntax

object. AddViewshedLayer( MapLayer, PointX, PointY )

Parameter	Type	Default	Description
MapLayer	Layer object		required; This specifies the layer object on which the viewshed analysis is performed.
PointX	Double		required; This provides the transmitter X coordinate in the specified layer's map units.
PointY	Double		required; This provides the transmitter Y coordinate in the specified layer's map units.

Example

This example demonstrates how to add a viewshed to a contour map.

'Add a viewshed to the contour map named ContourLayer

Set ViewshedLayer = Plot.Shapes.AddViewshedLayer(MapLayer:=ContourLayer, _

PointX:=474933, PointY:= 437818)
