Travis,
I would say that unless you have an extremely accurate DTM, curvature and refraction would not amount to very much.
As I recall (from my days surveying), the combined effect of C&R is 0.0206F^2 where F is in thousands of feet. So if you were going 500 feet the effect would be ( 500/1000) ^2 x 0.0206 or 0.005 feet.
for what thats worth..

Not much activity on the List lately. Everyone must be scrambling to meet their ESRI UC registration deadline in a week. :-)
Quick question. When running a Line Of Sight Analysis in ArcGIS 3D Analyst using a GRID, I don't have the option to utilize the "apply curvature and refraction correction" - Is there a step required or certain data type or setting to enable this option?
Thanks much, Travis
