Additional Information

How the 3D geostatistical layer got into a state without a proper z-extent (Zmin and Zmax are equal) is unable to be determined. This improper state is what is causing the crash. A workaround (recreating the geostatistical layer with a proper z-extent) is public-facing and can be referenced by anyone experiencing this problem. If the root cause of the improper z-extent is discovered, this issue will be readdressed.

Workaround

Do not provide any values of the Extent environment in the Empirical Bayesian Kriging 3D tool. When exporting using the GA Layer 3D To NetCDF tool, provide the study area in the 'Input study area polygons' parameter. The output netCDF file will fill the full extent of the study area, even if the study area is wider than the geostatistical layer.
