The Build method will recalculate the Surface.

Signature

object.Build()

object

Surface The object or objects this property applies to.

Remarks

When changes are made to a Surface, the Surface needs to be recalculated. The Build method will do the recalculation. The status of a surface will only be accurate when the time between a Build and an addition of Surface Input data is greater than the resolution of the file system.

Builds the WaterSheds for the Surface.

Signature

object.Build(MinDepressionDepth, MinDepressionArea, bExceedBoth)

object

WaterSheds
The object or objects this property applies to.

MinDepressionDepth

Double; input-only
The minimum depression depth for each watershed.

MinDepressionArea

Double; input-only
The minimum depression area for each watershed.

bExceedBoth

Boolean; input-only
TRUE:  Both minimum depression conditions must be met.
FALSE: Either minimum depression setting must be met.

Remarks

Any change in the Surface statistics will not occur until the Surface and Surfaces objects are released and created again. For example, WaterSheds.Build may add TinPoints to the Surface. The NumberOfPoints for the Surface will not be updated until both the Surfaces collection and the Surface object are updated.
