Code sample

CalculateDefaultValues example (stand-alone script)

This stand-alone script calculates the default values for several feature classes in the TDS geodatabase.

# Name: CalculateDefaultValues_sample.py
# Description: Use the Calculate Default Values tool to replace null values with their appropriate default data model values 

# Import System Modules
import arcpy

# Check Out Extensions
arcpy.CheckOutExtension('Foundation')

# Setting Local Variables
in_features = [r'C:\Temp\Test.gdb\StructurePoints', r'C:\Temp\Test.gdb\StructurePolygons']

# Use the Calculate Default Values tool to replace null values and print the result
arcpy.topographic.CalculateDefaultValues(in_features)

# Check In Extensions
arcpy.CheckInExtension('Foundation')

Environments

This tool does not use any geoprocessing environments.
