SAMPLE:
• LAYER_BOUNDS_EXPAND - specifies that the operation should expand the used
LAYER_BOUNDS bounding box by some amount. The amount to expand the bounding rectangle by
should be specified in the current global projection. For example, if you have a UTM/meters
projection active and want to expand the bounds retrieved from the LAYER_BOUNDS parameter by
100 meters on the left and right, and 50 meters on the top and bottom, you could use
LAYER_BOUNDS_EXPAND="100.0,50.0". You can also specify a single value to apply to all 4
sides, or supply 4 separate values in the order left,top,right,bottom.
This sample will generate equal-elevation areas of size 20 meters (10 meters on either side) from the specified
DEM layer and store the elevation values in an attribute named ELEV for each area feature.
GENERATE_EQUAL_VAL_AREAS FILENAME="C:\temp\export test\blue_springs_4_quads.dem" ELEV_DIST=10.0
GENERATE_LAYER_BOUNDS
The GENERATE_LAYER_BOUNDS command create a new layer with a single bounding box area created
from the bounding box of each loaded layer.
• LAYER_DESC - specifies the description to use the for created layer
GENERATE_PATH_PROFILE
Global Mapper User's Manual
The GENERATE_PATH_PROFILE command allows for the saving of a 3D path profile to an ASCII XYZ
file. This command uses loaded elevation data to generate a list of the 3D coordinates between two given
points in the given elevation units. The following parameters are supported by the command.
• FILENAME - full path to XYZ ASCII file to save the data to
• ELEV_UNITS - specify elevation units to use in export
♦ FEET - export in US feet
♦ METERS - export in meters
• POINT_COUNT - specifies the number of points to generate in the path. This must be at least two.
For example, to create 1000 points, use POINT_COUNT=1000. You can use the POINT_SPACING
parameter rather than this to specify how far apart sample points should be.
• POINT_SPACING - specifies the point spacing in meters to use between sample points along the
path. For example, to create points spaced 10 meters apart, use POINT_SPACING=10.0.
• START_POS - specifies the start position for the path profile. The coordinates must be given in the
current global coordinate system. For example, if UTM if the current projection, you might specify
and easting/northing as follows: START_POS=480000,4310000.
• END_POS - specifies the end position for the path profile. The coordinates must be given in the
current global coordinate system. For example, if UTM if the current projection, you might specify
and easting/northing as follows: START_POS=480000,4310000.
• ADD_LAND_USE_CODES - specifies whether to query loaded LULC data sets for the land use code
at each point and to include that land use code after the elevation. Use
ADD_LAND_USE_CODES=YES to turn on adding land use codes for each point.
• APPEND_TO_FILE - specifies that the elevations between the start and end locations should be
appended to the file specified if it already exists rather than a new file being created
