Overview
Visibility components are created for the ArcGIS Platform, allowing analysts to better understand the terrain. An analyst can assess:
- Radial Line Of Sight, also known as Viewshed, calculates the visibility of an area from one or more observer locations. The results show what areas are visible (or not) to one or more observers.
- Linear Line Of Sight is a point to point visibility between one or more observers, and one or more targets. Each observer and target pair is a unique line of sight between them.
