An overview of the Trace Network toolbox

The Trace Network toolbox contains tools to create, configure, and work with trace networks.

ToolDescription

Add Network Attribute

Adds a network attribute to a trace network.

Convert Geometric Network To Trace Network

Converts a geometric network to a trace network.

Create Trace Network

Creates a trace network.

Disable Network Topology

Disables the network topology for an existing trace network.

Enable Network Topology

A network topology is necessary for analytic operations such as tracing and to use network diagrams. A network topology can also be enabled to discover error features.

Set Flow Direction

Sets the flow direction of line features in a version 1 trace network.

Set Network Attribute

Assigns a network attribute to a feature class to be used during trace operations.

Trace

Returns selected features in a trace network based on connectivity or traversability from the specified starting points.

Validate Network Topology

Validates the network topology of a trace network. Validation of the network topology is necessary after edits have been made to network attributes or the geometry of features in the network.
