Description
The supported file formats are esriTerrainAsciiDataFormatXYZ, esriTerrainAsciiDataFormatGenerate, and esriTerrainAsciiFormatXYZI.
If the format is XYZI the target feature class must have a BLOB type field named 'Intensity'. This will be used to hold the intensity values. The TerrainBlobReader can be used to interpret the values placed in the BLOBs. The Intensity field of the resulting feature class can also be included in a terrain dataset if the feature class were embedded. If the intensity values in the file are of no interest, and should be ignored, then specify the format as XYZ. In this case, the importer will not require the Intensity field and the intensity values in the file(s) will be skipped.
