Add Edge-Edge Connectivity Rule to Geometric Network

Adds an edge-edge connectivity rule to a geometric network.

1.    Geometric Network

The geometric network to which the connectivity rule will be added.

2.    From Edge Feature Class

The name of the from edge feature class.

3.    From Edge Subtype

The subtype description for the from edge feature class. If subtypes do not exist on the feature class, use the feature class name.

4.    To Edge Feature Class

The name of the to edge feature class.

5.    To Edge Subtype

The subtype description for the to edge feature class. If subtypes do not exist on the feature class, use the feature class name.

6.    Junction Subtypes

The junction feature classes and subtypes through which these edge feature classes or subtypes will be permitted to connect.

7.    Default Junction Subtype

Junction Subtype that will serve as the default junction subtype for the edge-edge connectivity rule.

Add Edge-Junction Connectivity Rule to Geometric Network

Adds an edge-junction connectivity rule to a geometric network.

Geometric Network

The geometric network to which the connectivity rule will be added.

1.    Edge Feature Class

The name of the edge feature class.

2.    Edge Subtype

The subtype description for the edge feature class. If subtypes do not exist on the feature class, use the feature class name.

3.    Junction Feature Class

The name of the junction feature class.

4.    Junction Subtype

The subtype description for the junction feature class. If subtypes do not exist on the feature class, use the feature class name.

5.    Set as default junction (optional)

Indicates if the junction specified in this rule will be created automatically at a dangling endpoint of an edge in the feature class specified as part of the rule.

1. Checked—Create a junction at a dangling endpoint of edges for this rule.
2. Unchecked—Do not create a junction at a dangling endpoint of edges for this rule. This is the default.

6.    Min Edge Cardinality (optional)

The minimum number of edges that can connect to each junction. If nothing is specified, then it will be valid to have any number of edges connected to a single junction for the feature class or subtype pair.

7.    Max Edge Cardinality (optional)

The maximum number of edges that can connect to each junction. If nothing is specified, then it will be valid to have any number of edges connected to a single junction for the feature class or subtype pair.

8.    Min Junction Cardinality (optional)

The minimum number of junctions that can connect to each edge. If nothing is specified, then it will be valid to have any number of junctions connected to a single edge for the feature class or subtype pair.

9.    Max Junction Cardinality (optional)

The maximum number of junctions that can connect to each edge. If nothing is specified, then it will be valid to have any number of junctions connected to a single edge for the feature class or subtype pair.

Create Geometric Network

Creates a geometric network in a geodatabase using the specified feature classes, role for each feature class, and the specified weights with weight associations.

1.    Feature Dataset

The feature dataset in which the geometric network will be created. In an enterprise geodatabase, the feature dataset and feature classes that will participate in the geometric network cannot be versioned.

2.    Geometric Network Name

The name of the geometric network to be created.

3.    Feature Classes

The input feature classes to be added to the geometric network and the role the feature class should play in the geometric network. Roles can be:

1. SIMPLE_JUNCTION—The only option for point feature classes.
2. SIMPLE_EDGE—Used for line feature classes and only allows resources to flow from one end of the edge and out the other end.
3. COMPLEX_EDGE—Used for line feature classes and allows resources to be siphoned off along the length of the edge.

For each simple junction feature class, whether it will participate in flow direction with Sources and Sinks.

1. YES—Simple junction feature class will act as a source or a sink for establishing flow direction.
2. NO—Simple junction feature class will not act as a source or a sink for establishing flow direction.

4.    Snap Tolerance (optional)

The snapping tolerance to be set on the geometric network. The larger the value, the more likely vertices will be to snap together. The default value is empty, which means that no snapping will be performed during geometric network creation. The snapping performed during geometric network creation cannot be undone.

5.    Weights (optional)

Weights are the cost of traveling along an edge in a network. For example, in a water network, a weight can be the length of the pipe. Indicate the weight name, weight type, and for bitgate weights, the size. The type of the weight determines which feature class fields can be associated with the weight. Types can be one of the following:

1. Integer—Can be associated with fields of type Short Integer or Long Integer.
2. Single—Can be associated with fields of type Float.
3. Double—Can be associated with fields of type Float or Double.
4. Bitgate—Can be associated with fields of type Short Integer or Long Integer. Only values from 0 to 31 are supported.

6.    Weight Associations (optional)

Specifies the weight associations for each field and feature class. When adding a new network weight, it must be associated with a field in a feature class which will provide the values to determine the weight for the features.

7.    Z Snap Tolerance (optional)

The snapping tolerance to be set on the geometric network with z-coordinate based snapping. The larger the value, the more likely vertices will be to snap together. The default value is empty which means that no snapping will be performed during geometric network creation, and the geometric network will not support Zs. A value of zero indicates that no snapping will be performed during the geometric network creation, but the geometric network will support Zs.

8.    Preserve Enabled Values (optional)

Specifies whether to preserve the values in any existing enabled field or whether the values are reset.

1. Checked—Valid values (either True or False) in the existing enabled fields are preserved. This is the default.
2. Unchecked—Valid values (either True or False) in the existing enabled fields will be reset to True.
