Previously we learned how to add ArcGIS online background layer to the CUBE GIS Window. What if you only have an NET and a raster layer of the project area? CUBE allows users the option to display a raster layer depicting real-world conditions such as existing roads, neighborhoods, parks, etc. You can perform this task in both the CUBE GIS and Network Windows. Please note that for this to work the network must be in the correct format for each window. For GIS Window, the network should be in geodatabase format ideally (GDB/MDB). For Network Window, it should be in Cube’s .NET format.
GIS Window
Alternatively, users can use the Add Data icon located in the Editor toolbar and apply the same methodology listed earlier.
The GIS Window should display a similar visualization as below.
Network Window
Users can load a raster layer that aligns with the network within the Network Window by performing the following steps:
The raster should be able to load, aligning with the network if the correct spatial reference was used.
