public PropagationOutputType OutputType ()Return Value

An enumeration value telling whether the propagated values can be described as a kind of height, and if so, what kind of height.
An enumeration value telling whether the propagated values can be described as a kind of height, and if so, what kind of height.
Remarks
If you use a LineOfSightOperator just to display the plain 2D raster from the custom calculations, the output type does not really matter: the operator will not modify or interpret the calculated raster in this case. But to generate a volumetric viewshed, the operator needs a custom output type that is a known kind of height, so that the calculated values can be used as the bottom surface of the viewshed volume. And a TargetLineOfSightOperator also needs to know the custom output type.
