I have many foot of slope points. How do I collect them?
Foot of slope points which are a result after an analysis are stored as a child of an analysis. It is possible to collect foot of slope points into groups two ways
One-by-one:
- Right-click a foot of slope point and select Set as active foot of slope
- Right-click the next foot of slope point you want to append, and select Append to active foot of slope
- Repeat step 2. until you have appended all the points you want in the group.
- Right-click a folder where you want to store the new FOS group and select New > Workspace Data > FOS
You will now have a dataset called FOS, which contains your foot of slope points.
Collect all foot of slope points in a folder
Instead of changing the settings of the existing Append all lines in a folder command, you could create a copy of it, and rename the copy to Collect all FOS points in a folder and then perform the steps above.
- Select the folder containing the bathymetric profiles
- In the Toolbox right click the command Append all lines in a folder and select Edit
- Click Filters
- Tick the Filter by Schema checkbox and click Add
- Select the Foot of slope filter and the Generic filter and click OK
- At the top of the menu make sure that the Filter execution box is ticked and the Filter visibility box is not ticked.
- Click OK
- Click OK on the command menu also
- Now run the command and notice that you have a dataset appendedData in the Workspace in the Toolbox.
- Copy this dataset into your project, rename it and set the schema to Foot of slope
You might have to specify the geodetic settings of the new dataset (Right click > Properties > Geodetics).
