Overlay Events (Location Referencing)

ArcGIS Pro 3.2 | | Help archive

Available with Location Referencing license.

Summary

Overlays one or more linear event feature layers onto a target network and outputs a feature class or table that represents the dynamic segmentation of the inputs.

Usage

  • All input Event Layers values must be line events.

  • The Event Layers parameter can only include linear event feature classes registered with an ArcGIS Location Referencing network.

  • If the input events use different linear referencing methods (LRM), they will be translated using the LRM of the target network.

  • This tool supports selection sets.

  • This tool supports definition filters.

  • This tool supports input Event Layers values that are configured to contain events that span multiple routes. The output will still dynamically segment at the route level of the target network using the Network Fields parameter.

  • This tool supports temporal segmentation (time slicing). This will occur by default and can be overridden by creating a time-based definition query or applying a selection set to the inputs.

  • This tool supports the inclusion of one or more fields from the network feature class in the output using the Network Fields parameter.

  • The output can be saved as either a table or a feature class.

  • If the output is saved as a table or feature class, the output will have the following indexes and fields:

    IndexField

    Route_ID

    • Route_ID

    Rid_Dates_Me

    • Route_ID
    • From_Date
    • To_Date
    • From_Measure
    • To_Measure

  • This tool supports the Gas Utility Network Configuration pipeline feature layer as an input event layer if this feature class has been configured for use with an LRS using the Configure Utility Network Feature Class tool.

  • If more than one LRS Network exists in the Gas Utility Network Configuration, the measures for the input event layers will match the measures shown in the right column of the table below.

    One nonline network

  • This tool supports physically gapped routes and events as input routes and input events, respectively.

  • Only one event per layer can be on a route segment. For example, for the layer named Speed Limit, only one event record in that layer can be on that segment. A segment can have multiple events, each in its own event layer. Use the ArcGIS Data Reviewer Invalid Event Measures tool to identify and resolve issues with event data.

Parameters

LabelExplanationData Type
Input Route Features

The target network onto which the event layers will be dynamically segmented.

Feature Layer
Event Layers

The event layers that will be dynamically segmented together onto a target network.

Feature Layer
Output Dataset

The table or feature class containing the output event records that will be created.

Table
Include Geometry
(Optional)

Specifies whether the Output Dataset value will include event geometry.

  • Unchecked—The Output Dataset value will not include event geometry. Event records will be stored as a table. This is the default.
  • Checked—The Output Dataset value will include event geometry. Event records will be stored as a feature class.
Boolean
Network Fields
(Optional)

Fields from the network layer that will be included in the output.
