Available with ArcGIS Pro Standard and Data Reviewer licenses.
Summary
The Unclosed Polygon check finds unclosed rings in polygon features.
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:
| Workflow | Supported | Licensing |
|---|---|---|
Validation attribute rule | Yes (ArcGIS Pro 2.9 and ArcGIS Enterprise10.9.1 or later) | Available with ArcGIS Pro Standard and Data Reviewer license |
Constraint attribute rule | No | N/A |
Run Data Checks | Yes (ArcGIS Pro 3.5 or later) | Available with Data Reviewer license |
Overview
The Unclosed Polygon check identifies polygon features that contain rings that are not closed. Features that contain unclosed rings impact the results of spatial analysis. You are most likely to encounter them when importing features from sources that are not geodatabases, such as shapefiles.
Attribute Rule syntax
The following table describes the validation attribute rule parameters:
| Parameter | Required | Description | Workflow |
|---|---|---|---|
|
Subtype |
No | The subtype(s) to which the rule is applied. | Validation |
|
Attribute |
No | A query that identifies the features to which the rule is applied. | Validation |
|
Name |
Yes | A unique name for the rule. This information is used to support data quality requirement traceability, automated reporting, and corrective workflows. | Validation |
|
Description |
No | A description of the error you define when a noncompliant feature is found. This information is used to provide guidance for corrective workflows. | 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. | Validation |
Run Data Checks syntax
The following table describes the Run Data Checks parameters:
| Parameter | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
Input Feature | Yes | The input feature layer that is evaluated by the rule. Note:You can disable a map selection or layer definition query using the toggle button that honors the selection or filter before evaluation. Layer definition queries that include a spatial clause are not supported. |
Attribute Filter | No | A query that identifies the features to which the rule is applied. |
Name | Yes | A unique name for the rule. This information is used to support data quality requirement traceability. |
Extent | Yes |
|
Notes
Keep the following in mind when using the check:
- Polygon feature layers are supported.
- You can use the Repair Geometry tool to fix errors detected with this check.
- The Attribute filter parameter is limited to comparison (=, <>, >, <, >=, and <=) and logical (AND/OR, IN/NOT IN, LIKE/NOT LIKE, and IS NULL) operators.
- The Attribute filter parameter does not support the following field types: Big Integer, Date Only, Time Only, and Timestamp Offset. If selected, the row header is marked in red and does not allow the rule to be saved.
