Create Utility Network (Utility Network)

ArcGIS Pro 3.4 | | Help archive

Summary

Creates a utility network in an enterprise, file, or mobile geodatabase feature dataset.

A utility network is created and a structure network, with its collection of feature classes, is added to the target feature dataset. The structure feature classes will be shared across all domain networks as they are created and configured for the utility network.

For details about system requirements and supported databases, see Create a utility network.

Usage

  • The Input Feature Dataset and Service Territory Feature Class parameters must have the same spatial reference.

  • The Service Territory Feature Class parameter value must exist in the input feature dataset and must be z- and m-enabled.

  • The DEFAULTS configuration keyword will be used for the output utility network.

  • When working with an enterprise geodatabase, the following requirements must be met:

    • The geodatabase version must be 10.8.1.2.6 or later to create a utility network version 6 or earlier.

    • The geodatabase version must be 11.2.0.3.2 or later to create a utility network version 7 or later.

    • The utility network cannot be owned by an operating system-authenticated user or a database administrator or geodatabase administrator account.
    • You must sign in and set an active ArcGIS Enterprise portal with an account that has privileges to publish content; these privileges include the ability to publish server-based layers as well as create, update, and delete content. The default Publisher role includes these privileges. The active ArcGIS Enterprise portal account will be recorded in the network properties as the portal utility network owner.

    License:
    The active portal account must be licensed with the ArcGIS Advanced Editing user type extension to create, publish, and work with a utility network in an enterprise geodatabase.
