In
the
ArcScene
Catalog
side
tab,
open
a
new
connection
to
the
3D_GIS_Workshop
folder.
Open
the
SF_3D_Data
geodatabase
and
drag
the
SF_NED_10m
elevation
model
into
ArcScene.
If
the
terrain
you
are
modelling
is
relatively
flat
you
can
increase
the
Z
scaling
by
adding
a
custom
elevation
factor.
Extrude
basic
footprints:
Next
well
add
your
building
footprints
and
drape
the
over
the
terrain.
Notice
that
you
can
see
some
of
the
building
polygons
but
only
those
around
the
edges
of
the
NED.
Because
they
are
represented
as
flat,
the
rest
are
hidden
beneath
the
terrain.
The
next
step
will
lift
the
footprints
and
drape
them
over
the
terrain
layer.
Although
the
new
layer
looks
just
like
the
extruded
footprints
layer,
ArcScene
treats
them
differently.
With
the
new
layer
we
can
now
perform
3d
analysis
or
swamp
and
modify
our
building
models.
