Calculating the Volume of a Raster using 3D Analyst of ArcGIS (ArcMap + ArcScene)

This tutorial demonstrates to you how to calculate the volume of a specified river cross section using the ArcGIS 3D Analyst tool.

⭐NOTE:
‘Kite’ is an excellent tool that can help you boost your productivity when it comes to programming with its free Artificial Intelligence (AI) powered coding assistant. Kite is a plugin which provides smart completions and documentation as you’re typing-in your code, and its compatible with most of the well-known IDEs such as PyCharm, Spyder and VS Code. I absolutely love it, and recommend you guys to try it out as well.

It's so useful and thank you for creating this video.
Also I have couple of questions and there they are:
1. how did you get the data of surface, did you download a DEM or manually collected coordinates and elevation points?
2. when you've been got data of surface, the data was including river's base or river's mirror?
3. how did you get the date of difference between river's base and river's mirror?

great videos, very useful, subscribed

Sir your video tutorial is very special to me. Respect

And how did you prepared the water level? Please explain, we're so confused

[iandownes]

How did you create water level? Didn't learn that in school?!?

This is great work, but I have a question about units:

I would assume that the vertical units are whatever is specified in your raster, so they are meters. However, how are the horizontal units measured? Are they raster rows by raster columns? Or are they defined in another place? So if my raster resolution is 1/2 meter by 1/2 meter, while my vertical is in meters, the output volume will actually be in Meters /4.

What are the unit for 2D, 3D areas and volume?

[LUMIGOCHA]

Great ane easy explanation. Does the volume values come in cubic meteres?

Really helpful video, sir. How to make water levels Shape file?

[binwu]

thank you！it's really helpful for me！and i’m wonder how to calculate the surface area？

[henki]

Hi sir, how did you make the waterline?

[assadullahrezayee]

Can you please make other video for the same episode, with all details, we need to know how do you create that water livel .

[binod]

Hello sir, There is a little doubt mine that how didi you convert this raster data to a teen model and import it to Arcscene. In my case the extract file is saved as tiff file after I create my river selection area, and then in arcscene the raster data elevated in irregular and zig zag type. So please resolve this

[aghiljafari]

how did you create plain in arcScene, please explain that, thanks .

[MuhammadAli-brtj]

A very useful vide I like it, I have not understood about water level shapefile, how to make it

[binod]

wait, how did you import it to a 3d model in arcscene, please explain

[AndrewMuramuzi-ui]

Hello sir. Whenever I use my ArcSence to project the DEM to produce a 3D, it disappears. What would be the problem

[gabrielabdulai]

Great Video!!! Really helpful. Thank you!!!

[JustDriveHD]

Please, how was the water level created ?

[minhvuanh]

How can we export the intersection between DEM and water surface plane in SHP so we can have the surface water extent for specific water level?
