Sep 16, 2017 at 22:32 comment added FelixIP If you have polylineZ ready, convert vertices to points, add geometry attributes (z) and use these points to calibrate routes with measure being Z. I applied this technique for 100 kms of pipes, to find their depth at crossings with roads.
Sep 15, 2017 at 17:37 comment added FelixIP Values 2, 3 ,1 in my example ARE z values or could be anything else. Frankly it takes less time to solve your task using 3 lines above, rhan theoretise about it.
Sep 15, 2017 at 13:44 comment added Erin Godwin That makes sense FelixIP, but I agree with jbalk that I do have a 3D route. If the z values aren't used in linear referencing, that makes sense, but the geonet example indicated that you could use this method to get z values for points of interest/route events from the route. As jbalk indicated, my question really is: if the Z values play no role/ aren't conferred to route events that are located on a 3D route (a Polyline ZM with valid z values), how does one use the method described in the geonet post to interpolate z values of points of interest?
Sep 15, 2017 at 6:15 comment added jbalk This doesn't answer the question. There is a link to the post on how to capture the z info once you've created the event layer.
Sep 15, 2017 at 5:38 comment added FelixIP Because z plays no role in locating events along the road. Even if I've managed to create 3d route, the results above will stay the same
Sep 15, 2017 at 5:32 comment added Fezter Why wouldn't you consider 3D routes to exist in terms of linear referencing? 3D routes are perfectly valid. Consider a road that goes down a mountain. In plan view, it is much shorter than it actually is.
