Convert S-57 to S-101 Cell (Maritime)

Available with Maritime Charting license.

Summary

Converts the S-57 vector product for storing nautical charting data to the new vector S-101 format.

Usage

  • If you want to load updates, and you do not have a CATALOG file, the updates must be in the same folder as the .000 file. This allows the updates to be automatically applied during the loading process.

  • CATALOG files are supported as an input format.

  • Once the tool runs successfully, a log file will be written to the output location with warning and error messages.

    Note:

    These messages are expected in the log file, because S-57 features and attributes are no longer supported in S-101.

  • The S57to101Configuration.xml file in the resource folder allows you to customize configurable settings such as dataset name when converting to S-101.

    Note:

    Each section in the S57to101Configuration.xml file has information about the section and how to populate the value.

ConvertS57toS101Cell example (Python window)

The following Python window script demonstrates how to use the ConvertS57toS101Cell tool.

import arcpy
arcpy.CheckOutExtension("Nautical")
# Input Feature Catalog
inFeatureCatalog = r"C:\Program Files\ArcGIS\Pro\Resources\Maritime\S-101FC_1.0.0_20180918_esri_spatial_association.xml"
# Input Configuration File
in_config_file= r"C:\Program Files\ArcGIS\Pro\Resources\Maritime\S57to101Configuration.xml"
# Input S-57 file
inS57Cell = r"C:\test_data\converter\ENC_ROOT\US2MI01M\US2MI01M.000"
# Input output location
inOutputLocation = r"C:\test_data\converter\converted_cells"
arcpy.ConvertS57ToS101_maritime(inFeatureCatalog, in_config_file, inS57Cell, inOutputLocation)
