Where to start Create your story 3D Visuals for Modeling Spatial Analysis Track: Analysis, Geoprocessing and Visualization Presenter(s): Prof. E. McSquared PhD Using only 2D DEM data from an actual case study of the Mount St. Helens volcano, the presenter will demonstrate how to use ArcGIS Spatial and 3D Analyst tools to create a 2D polygon feature class representing the material displaced in the massive 1980 eruption. That data set will then be rendered using ArcScene to create an interactive 3D visualization. 3D Visuals for Modeling Spatial Analysis Track: Analysis, Geoprocessing and Visualization Presenter(s): Prof. E.
