AM-17 - Intervisibility

You are currently viewing an archived version of Topic Intervisibility, Line-of-Sight, and Viewsheds. If updates or revisions have been published you can find them at Intervisibility, Line-of-Sight, and Viewsheds.

Learning Objectives: 
  • Define “intervisibility”
  • Outline an algorithm to determine the viewshed (area visible) from specific locations on surfaces specified by DEMs
  • Perform siting analyses using specified visibility, slope, and other surface related constraints
  • Explain the sources and impact of errors that affect intervisibility analyses
