Daniela C Docan
Daniela Cristiana Docan is currently a lecturer at the Department of Topography and Cadastre at the Faculty of Geodesy in Bucharest, Romania. She obtained her PhD in 2009 from the Technical University of Civil Engineering, Bucharest, with her thesis Contributions to quality improvement of spatial data in GIS. Formerly, she worked at Esri Romania and National Agency for Cadastre and Land Registration (ANCPI). While working for Esri Romania, she trained teams (as an authorized instructor in ArcGIS for Desktop by Esri) from state- and privately-owned companies, such as the Romanian Aeronautical Authority, the Agency of Payments and Intervention for Agriculture (APIA), and the Institute of Hydroelectric Studies and Design. She also trained and assisted the team in charge of quality data control in the Land Parcel Identification System (LPIS) project, in Romania. For the ANCPI, she created the logical and physical data model for the Romanian National Topographic Dataset at a scale of 1:5,000 (TOPRO5) in 2009. She was a member of the workgroup that elaborated TOPRO5 and its metadata technical specifications and the Report on the implementation of the INSPIRE Directive in Romania in 2010. Prior to this book, Daniela worked on ArcGIS for Desktop Cookbook, Packt Publishing, which covers the following topics: designing a file geodatabase schema, constraining the geometry and attribute values of the data, geocoding addresses, working with routes and events, and using spatial ETL tools.

Intervisibility

Intervisibility refers to the analysis of a sight line between an observer and a target feature through potential obstructions such as 3D surfaces or features.

Getting ready

We continue to plan the topographic survey campaign mentioned in Chapter 9, Working with Spatial Analyst, in the Analyzing surfaces and Analyzing the least-cost path recipes. In this recipe, you will analyze the visibility between three geodetic points and buildings (reservoirs and two churches).

TriangulationPoint3D has an attribute field named SurveyInstruments that stores the normal height (H) of the instrument calculated as the sum of the Height Black Sea'75 field and a constant value of 1.5 meters (height of the survey instrument).

Buildings3D has a field named H_Buildings that stores the height calculated as the sum of the Z_Mean, the normal height (H) field, and the approximate height of the building. The Z_Mean field has been calculated using the Add Z Informative tool.

The Buildings3D feature and...
