Calculate Default Values (Topographic Production)

Summary

Replaces null values in a feature class or table with the default values from the geodatabase feature class.

Usage

• Only feature classes or tables that have default values specified will have null values replaced.

Parameters

Dialog

Label	Explanation	Data Type
Input Dataset	The feature classes and/or tables whose null values will be replaced with the default values from the data model.	Dataset; Feature Layer; Table View

Derived Output

Label	Explanation	Data Type
Output Dataset	Output dataset where attributes were updated.	Table View; Feature Layer; Dataset

Python

arcpy.topographic.CalculateDefaultValues(in_datasets)

Name	Explanation	Data Type
in_datasets [in_datasets,...]	The feature classes and/or tables whose null values will be replaced with the default values from the data model.	Dataset; Feature Layer; Table View

Derived Output

Name	Explanation	Data Type
out_dataset	Output dataset where attributes were updated.	Table View; Feature Layer; Dataset

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.
