Summary
The Polyline or Path Closes on Self check finds paths or lines in polyline features that close themselves.
Overview
The purpose of the Polyline or Path Closes on Self check is to find polyline features or their individual paths that close on themselves. This includes polylines or paths that close (start and endpoints are coincident) or those that contain multiple paths that result in a closure. Alternatively, you can identify features that do not close themselves.
When configured as a constraint rule, an error notification is returned upon creation or modification of a feature that closes (or does not close) itself.
When configured as a validation rule, an error is created during validation for each feature that closes (or does not close) itself.
Supported workflows
ArcGIS Data Reviewer checks support multiple methods for implementing automated review of data. The following table identifies the supported implementation methods for this check:
Validation | Constraint | ||
---|---|---|---|
Reviewer batch job | Reviewer map rule | Attribute (validation) rule | Yes (ArcGIS Pro 2.4 or later) |
Yes | No | Yes (ArcGIS Pro 2.5 or later) |
Syntax
Parameter | Required | Description | Workflow |
---|---|---|---|
Subtype | No |
The subtype to which the rule is applied. | Constraint |
Validation | |||
Attribute | No | A query that identifies the features to which the rule is applied. | Validation |
Search Goal | Yes | The error conditions evaluated by the rule.
| Constraint |
Validation | |||
Triggers | Yes | The editing events that trigger the rule to take effect.
| Constraint |
Name | Yes | A unique title or name for the rule. This information is used to support data quality requirement traceability, automated reporting, and corrective workflows. | Constraint |
Validation | |||
Description | No | A description you define of the error when a noncompliant feature is found. This information is used to provide guidance to facilitate corrective workflows. | Constraint |
Validation | |||
Severity | No | The severity of the error assigned when a noncompliant feature is found. This value indicates the importance of the error relative to other errors. Values range from 1 to 5, with 1 being the highest priority and 5 being the lowest. | Validation |
Tags | No | The tag property of the rule. This information is used in rule authoring and management workflows to support traceability and reporting of data quality requirements. | Constraint |
Validation |
Notes
- Polyline features that do not contain a valid geometry will not be assessed by this check.
The Invalid Geometry check is used to find features that contain invalid geometries that require correction.
- Z-values are ignored when evaluating whether a feature is closed.
- The Attribute filter parameter is limited to comparison (=, <>, >, <, >=, <=) and logical (AND/OR, IN/NOT IN, LIKE/NOT LIKE, IS NULL) operators.
