The WMS Digitize Toolbar provides a quick way to create TIN vertices if there are known elevations and there is no source of accurate elevation data other than a digital map.

For example, if there is an image of a contour map with known contour elevations, a user can turn on the Digitize Toolbar and then turn on Digitize Mode. Define an elevation value and then click on points along the contour to define vertices on a TIN, as shown below.

Once all the vertices have been defined on the TIN, a user can turn off the digitize mode and triangulate the TIN to use the TIN in the hydrologic or hydraulic model.
