Hello,

I created contour lines of a point cloud and exported them as a shapefile to open it in ArcMap. It opens successfully but I can't find any height values in the attribute table of the exported shape. My question is: How can export contour lines as .shp with height values included?

Thank you in advance

Which tool did you use to extract the contour?

Hello Daniel,

I used File --> Save and then choosed .shp

No, I meant to "compute/create" the contour polyline?

Hello Daniel,

Tools --> Projection --> Rasterize --> Contour Plot --> Generate --> Export --> Close
Afterwards I save the contour plot as a .shp file.

Have you selected the right options?

Thank you! :-) I forgot to select the option you mentioned in the screenshot...
