I am trying to do what my title says. The goal is to input a line, segment it in an evenly distributed way by a specified distance, convert the vertices to points, then draw lines perpendicular to the segment at a specified distance. These lines will then be converted to point in a similar fashion and return the maximum elevation value both east and west of each point. This whole process is meant to extract samples of an approximation of bank height for a river. I have found tools and processes that do the line segmentation (even though annoyingly it seems one cannot access the nifty Editor toolbar processes in python), but I am having trouble finding a script that makes the perpendicular transect lines. Has anyone done anything like this before? Note: I have found the script here, but it has too many malfunctions and I gave up trying to fix it (http://forums.arcgis.com/threads/49206-Perpendicular-transects-at-regular-intervals). Thank you!
