Label | Explanation | Data Type |
Input Base Features | The data that will be compared with the Input Test Features parameter value. This parameter value is data that you have declared valid. This base data has the correct content and information. | Feature Layer |
Input Test Features | The data that will be compared with the Input Base Features parameter value. This parameter value is data that you have made changes to by editing or compiling new information. | Feature Layer |
Sort Field | The field or fields that will be used to sort records in the inputs. The records are sorted in ascending order. Sorting by a common field in both inputs ensures that you are comparing the same row from each input dataset. | Value Table |
Compare Type (Optional) | Specifies the comparison type that will be used.
| String |
Ignore Options (Optional) | Specifies the properties that will not be compared.
| String |
XY Tolerance (Optional) | The distance that will determine the range in which features will be considered equal. To minimize error, the parameter value should be as small as possible. By default, the compare tolerance is the xy-tolerance of the input base features. | Linear Unit |
M Tolerance (Optional) | The minimum distance between measures before they will be considered equal. | Double |
Z Tolerance (Optional) | The minimum distance between z-coordinates before they will be considered equal. | Double |
Attribute Tolerance (Optional) | The numeric value that will determine the range in which attribute values are considered equal. This parameter only applies to numeric field types. | Value Table |
Omit Fields (Optional) | The field or fields that will be omitted during comparison. The field definitions and the tabular values for these fields will be ignored. | String |
Continue Comparison (Optional) | Specifies whether the comparison will continue after encountering the first difference between the inputs.
| Boolean |
Output Compare File (Optional) | The output file that will contain all similarities and differences between the inputs. This file is a comma-delimited text file that can be viewed and used as a table in ArcGIS. The output file that will contain all similarities and differences between the inputs. This file is a comma-delimited text file that can be viewed and used as a table in ArcGIS. | File |
