Task: CreateViewshed

Display Name: CreateViewshed

Description: Creates areas where an observer can see objects on the ground. The input observer points can represent either observers (such as people on the ground or lookouts in a fire tower) or observed objects (such as wind turbines, water towers, vehicles, or other people)., Both the observers and the observed objects can have a height above ground, and these heights are used to determine visibility. For example, a viewshed computed for 300-foot wind turbines and a 6-foot tall person standing on the ground will typically be larger than a viewshed computed for 200-foot turbines and a 5-foot tall person., The result layer records the number of times that each cell location in the input surface raster can be seen by the input observation points. Nonvisible cells are given NoData values.
