Raster Shaded Relief Renderer

This renderer produces a grayscale or a colored 3D representation of a shaded relief. This renderer can be used on either layers of type: ImageServiceLayer or TiledImageServiceLayer.

Properties

Property	Details
altitude	Used when the hillshadeType is traditional. The altitude of the illumination source.
azimuth	Used when the hillshadeType is traditional. The azimuth of the illumination source.
colorRamp	The color ramp to display the shaded relief. When not specified, a grayscale hillshade is produced. When this is specified, grayscale hillshade is fused with colorized elevation.
hillshadeType	Use single (traditional), or multiple illumination sources to generate hillshade. Valid values: multi-directional traditional
pixelSizeFactor	Accounts for changes in scale as the viewer zooms in and out on the map display.
pixelSizePower	Accounts for the altitude changes (or scale) as the viewer zooms in and out on the map display.
scalingType	Apply a constant or adjusted z-factor based on resolution changes. The adjusted type is suitable for worldwide elevation dataset. An adjusted zFactor is determined using this equation: Adjusted Z-Factor = (Z Factor) + (Pixel Size) (Pixel Size Power) x Pixel Size Factor. Valid values: adjusted none
type	Specifies the type of renderer used. Valid value of this property rasterShadedRelief
zFactor	A conversion factor that adjusts the units of measure for the vertical (or elevation) units when they are different from the horizontal coordinate (x,y) units of the input surface. It is the number of ground x,y units in one surface z-unit.
