Q:

Elevation Drop Along a Stream

In reference to How to determine elevation drop along stream with ArcGIS Desktop?, suppose I want to cut the stream every 100 m and find the elevation drop every 100 m. How can I do this?

A:

use Split tool in Editor toolbar and Split the line based on 100 meters (use "into equal parts ")
Create points from vertices : use "Feature Vertices To Points" tool (ArcToolboxb=> Data Management Tools => Features => Feature Vertices To Points)
Extract the Point Elevation: Use "Extract Values To Points" tool  (ArcToolbox => Spatial Analysis)
