Syntax

arcpy.maritime.ExportGeodatabaseToS57(in_source_gdb, product, export_type, out_location, {in_product_config}, {clip_data_option}, {sample_export})

Parameter	Explanation	Data Type
in_source_gdb	The database from which the product will be exported.	Workspace
product	The name of the product to export. This product metadata entry must exist in the ProductDefinition table, and the related extents must be present in the ProductCoverage feature class in the workspace.	String
export_type	Specifies the type of file to be created during the export. NEW_DATASET — A new dataset including information that has not been previously distributed by updates will be created. NEW_EDITION — A new edition of a dataset including information that has not been previously distributed by updates will be created. UPDATE — Changes in a dataset since the last export will be reflected in the file. REISSUE — A reissue of a dataset including all the updates applied to the original dataset up to the date of reissue will be created. A reissue does not contain information that has not been previously issued by updates. CANCEL — When a dataset is deleted, an updated cell file is created containing only the Dataset General Information record with the Dataset Identifier (DSID) field. In this case, the Edition Number (EDTN) subfield must be set to 0.	String
out_location	The location containing the output export package.	Folder
in_product_config (Optional)	The configuration file to use to export the product.	File
clip_data_option (Optional)	Specifies whether the export process will clip data that crosses an M_CSCL feature. CLIP —Features in the source database that cross the boundary of an M_CSCL feature will be clipped to the boundary in the exported file. DO_NOT_CLIP — Features in the source database that cross the boundary of an M_CSCL feature will not be clipped to the boundary in the exported file. This will result in the features remaining intact in the output. This is the default.	Boolean
sample_export (Optional)	Specifies whether the product will be exported as a sample. SAMPLE_EXPORT —The exported cell is not stored in the ProductExports table and the metadata information will not be updated in the ProductDefinition table. OFFICIAL_EXPORT — The exported cell is stored in the ProductExports table as a BLOB, and the edition, update, and other metadata in the ProductDefinition table will be updated. This is the default.	Boolean

Derived Output

Name	Explanation	Data Type
out_file	The exported S-57 cell.	File

Code sample

ExportGeodatabaseToS57 example (stand-alone script)

The following code sample demonstrates how to use the ExportGeodatabaseToS57 function to export to an S-57 file.

# Import arcpy module
import arcpy

# Tool variables
src_gdb = r'C:\Data\Connection Files\nsbisdb4_pacific_pl@editor.sde'
product = 'US5M3978'
output_path = r'C:\Data'
export_type = 'NEW_EDITION'
product_config = r'C:\Data\NIS_Product_custom.xml'
clip_option = 'DO_NOT_CLIP'
sample = 'SAMPLE_EXPORT'


# Execute the tool
arcpy.maritime.ExportGeodatabaseToS57(src_gdb, product, export_type, output_path, product_config, clip_option, sample)
