Export Sequenced Parcel Features (Parcel)

Summary

Exports the parcel features of a selected parcel to individual feature classes. The individual feature classes can be added to a map to create parcel layouts or title map layouts. Fields are added to the feature classes so that parcel features can be labeled and tabulated in a clockwise sequence.

Usage

  • The tool exports parcel features to the following feature classes:

    Parcel featuresFeature classAdded fields

    Parcel polygon

    Polygon feature class

    None

    Parcel lines

    Line feature class

    Sequence and IsCurve

    Parcel points

    Point feature class

    Sequence

    Connection lines

    Line feature class

    None

    Parcel record

    Polygon feature class

    None

  • The Sequence field on the exported line feature class stores the clockwise sequence number of the parcel line. The clockwise line sequence starts with the line that is closest to the quadrant specified for the Start Sequence Corner parameter.

  • Exported lines can be labeled by their sequence number in a parcel layout or map title layout. A table frame can be added to the layout showing the line sequence numbers and their corresponding dimensions.

  • The IsCurve field on the exported line feature class is set to true if the exported parcel line is a curve. This field can be used to display and tabulate curve data separately on a parcel layout.

  • The Sequence field on the exported point feature class stores the clockwise sequence number of the parcel point. The clockwise sequence starts with the point that is closest to the quadrant specified for the Start Sequence Corner parameter.

  • Exported points can be labeled by their sequence number in a parcel layout or map title layout. A table frame can be added to the layout showing the point sequence numbers and their corresponding coordinates.

  • The exported record polygon feature class and connection line feature class can be used to provide related information about parcels on title map layouts.

  • Any related tables of the parcel features will be exported with the individual feature classes.

Parameters

LabelExplanationData Type
Input Parcel Feature

The parcel that will be exported to individual feature classes. Only one parcel polygon can be selected.

Feature Layer
Target Feature Dataset

The feature dataset where the exported parcel feature classes will reside.

Feature Dataset
Start Sequence Corner
(Optional)

Specifies the parcel corner where the line and point sequence numbering will start. The sequence number is populated in the Sequence field on the exported lines and points feature class.

  • North EastThe line or point sequence will start at the northeast parcel corner point. This is the default.
  • South EastThe line or point sequence will start at the southeast parcel corner point.
  • South WestThe line or point sequence will start at the southwest parcel corner point.
  • North WestThe line or point sequence will start at the northwest parcel corner point.
String
Points Sequence Format
(Optional)

The sequence numbering format that will be used for points in the Sequence field. Use a # character to denote the incrementing sequence number. Multiple # characters will add zeros before the sequence number. Letters can be placed on either side of the # character. The following are examples:

  • # is formatted as a sequence starting with 1.
  • ## is formatted as a sequence starting with 01.
  • P# is formatted as a sequence starting with P1.
  • ABC-##1 is formatted as a sequence starting with ABC-001.
  • #P is formatted as a sequence starting with 1P.

String
Lines Sequence Format
(Optional)

The sequence numbering format that will be used for lines in the Sequence field. Use a # character to denote the incrementing sequence number. Multiple # characters will add zeros before the sequence number. Letters can be placed on either side of the # character. The following are examples:

  • # is formatted as a sequence starting with 1.
  • ## is formatted as a sequence starting with 01.
  • L# is formatted as a sequence starting with L1.
  • ABC-##1 is formatted as a sequence starting with ABC-001.
  • #L is formatted as a sequence starting with 1L.

String
Sequence Curves Separately
(Optional)

Specifies whether curves will be sequenced separately when exporting parcel lines.

  • Checked—The sequence numbering in the Sequence field will restart at 1 for the first curve encountered in the clockwise sequence and will increment for each additional curve found.
  • Unchecked—The sequence numbering in the Sequence field will not be incremented separately for curved lines. This is the default.
