Create an S-57 product with coverage and definitions

Disponible con licencia de Maritime Charting.

If you do not have existing S-57 data, you can create the foundation for a new S-57 product by capturing a new product coverage (polygon product extent) and providing the required metadata values in the ProductDefinitions table.

Nota:

You can also create S-57 products by importing an existing S-57 dataset.

Complete the following steps to define the product coverage and product definitions for a new S-57 product:

  1. Start ArcGIS Pro.
  2. Open a new or an existing project.
  3. If necessary, create an ArcGIS Maritime database schema and add data to the Contents pane.

    The Maritime S-57 tab appears.

  4. If necessary, add the ProductCoverage polygon feature class and the EditingProperties and ProductDefinitions tables to the Contents pane.

    The feature class and tables are included with the product data files.

  5. On the Maritime S-57 tab, in the S-57 Editing group, click the Compilation Scale drop-down arrow and choose a scale.

    This value represents the scale at which your chart is created. You can choose a value from the combo box list, or type a custom value. Setting a compilation scale ensures that all features that are created are attributed with the correct scale.

  6. In the Contents pane, right-click the Editing Properties table and click Open.
  7. In the Agency attribute column, double-click the row to access the drop-down list and choose an agency.

    The list of available agencies is generated from the IHO S-62 List of Data Producer Codes document. A new FIDS value is assigned to each record in the table by default and is used in generating a unique LNAM. The FIDS value can also be customized.

  8. Click the Edit tab and click Create Features Crear entidades.

    The Create Features pane appears.

  9. In the Create Features pane, click the ProductCoverage template.
  10. Create a polygon feature on your active map.
  11. With the polygon feature selected, click Attributes Attributes.

    The Attributes pane appears.

    Nota:

    The following error message also appears: ProductCoverage feature (subtype: ProductCoverage) must participate in one composite relationship as a child. No action is required.

  12. Provide a value for the Dataset Name and press Enter.

    The file name can be up to eight characters and can be composed of uppercase alphanumeric characters A to Z, and digits zero through nine. Typically, the first three characters are a combination of the agency code followed by the intended usage. For example, if your agency is 4E - Environmental Systems Research Institute, and the intended usage is 5 - Harbour, the file dataset name would be 4E5XXXXX where X represents additional available characters for you to define.

  13. Haga clic en Aplicar.
  14. In the Contents pane, right-click the ProductDefinitions table and click Open.
  15. If closed, open the Create Features pane, click the ProductDefinitions table, and click the Forward button Hacia delante to open the Active Template page.

    ((IS_CONFLATE = 1 AND PLTS_COMP_SCALE >= 1) OR ((IS_CONFLATE = 0 OR IS_CONFLATE IS NULL) AND (PLTS_COMP_SCALE >= 22000 AND PLTS_COMP_SCALE < 45000) AND NIS_PRODUCTS IN (1, 2)))

  17. Click Create after the attributes are populated.
