souvik.gis Posted October 18, 2013 Report Share Posted October 18, 2013 Format the xls in this format X,Y,Z,Attrib1,Attrib2 .......... and save in csv format. Attrib1, attrib 2 will be the attribute of your data. Now open ArcMap and add the csv. right click on the csv layer and click on "Display XY Data" ---------------- Now select the X,Y and Z source of your data. and set the projection system............... Click ok a new layer should created. Now right click on the newly created layer sand export it as shape file. (if necessary edit it first)... Now create tin from point layer and then create contour from it..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mayank Posted April 29, 2014 Report Share Posted April 29, 2014 can you please tell me the correct format of .csv file because when i'm doing so either it's showing error or not displaying the points...i have nearly the same type of data as the first one...
