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:
| Validation | Constraint | |
|---|---|---|
Reviewer batch job | Attribute (validation) rule | No |
Yes | Yes (ArcGIS Pro 2.9 and ArcGIS Enterprise 10.9.1 or later) | |
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.
Syntax
| Parameter | Required | Description | Workflow |
|---|---|---|---|
Subtype | No | The subtype 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 to facilitate corrective workflows. | Validation |
Severity | Yes | 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 |
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 logical (AND/OR, IN/NOT IN, LIKE/NOT LIKE, 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 will turn red and will not allow the rule to save.
