Migrate an LRS from a file geodatabase to a multiuser geodatabase

Disponible avec la licence Location Referencing.

It can be necessary to create a linear referencing system (LRS), LRS networks, LRS events, and LRS intersections in a file geodatabase before moving it to a multiuser geodatabase to ensure that data is created and configured by a single user.

Once these elements are created in a file geodatabase, you can migrate the LRS, tables, and feature classes into a multiuser geodatabase to use the multiuser versioned editing tools in ArcGIS Pro and in the ArcGIS Event Editor web app.

Complete the following steps to migrate an LRS and related data items between a file geodatabase and multiuser geodatabase:

  1. Create the minimum schema for the LRS, LRS networks, LRS events, and LRS intersections in the file geodatabase.
  2. Once your LRS is created, calibrated, and configured in the file geodatabase, prepare the target multiuser geodatabase for the LRS, feature classes, and tables you want to migrate.
  3. Use the Feature Class To Geodatabase tool to copy the feature dataset with all the feature classes that participate in the LRS from the source geodatabase to the target geodatabase.

    At a minimum, include the following:

    • Centerline Sequence table
    • LRS Edit Log table
    • Centerline
    • LRS Locks table
    • Any lookup tables configured
    • Any additional tables participating in the LRS

    Conseil :

    Right-click the selected feature classes in the Catalog pane and click Export > Feature Class(es) To Geodatabase.

    Export a feature class using the Export command
    Remarque :

    If there are multiple networks in the LRS, there are multiple network and calibration point feature classes.

    All the LRS feature classes must be in a feature dataset.

  4. Use the Table To Geodatabase tool to copy all the tables that participate in the LRS from the source geodatabase to the target geodatabase.

    At a minimum, include the following:

    • Centerline Sequence table
    • LRS Edit Log table
    • LRS Locks table
    • Any lookup tables configured
    • Any additional tables participating in the LRS

    Remarque :

    If your LRS was last accessed using ArcMap or ArcGIS Pro 2.5 or earlier, there are four tables with the LRS_ prefix (LRS_Edit Log, LRS_Event Behavior, LRS_Locks, and LRS_Metadata).

    Once your LRS is upgraded using the Modify LRS tool in ArcGIS Pro 2.6 or later, the LRS_Event_Behavior and LRS_Metadata tables are no longer in use and can be removed.

    Conseil :

    Right-click the chosen tables in the Catalog pane and click Export > Table(s) To Geodatabase.

    Export a table using the Export command
  5. Right-click the target geodatabase in the Catalog pane and choose Refresh to refresh it.
  6. In the Catalog pane, right-click the target geodatabase and click Domains.

    The Domains tab appears.

  7. Verify that the following coded value domains have been copied: dActivityType, dLRSNetworks, and dReferentMethod.

    If any of these domains are missing, ensure that they are imported from the source geodatabase to the target geodatabase before proceeding.

    Remarque :

    The dLRSNetworks domain must be attached to the NetworkID field in the Centerline Sequence table and the Calibration Point and Redline feature classes. The dActivityType domain must be attached to the ActivityType field in the Redline feature class.

  8. Verify that any additional subtypes or coded value domains used by the networks, events, or intersections were copied.
  9. Verify that all indexes are present in the feature classes and tables participating in the LRS. For a list of indexes recommended for each item, see data performance tips.
  10. Once the data has finished copying into the géodatabase d’entreprise, register all the tables, feature classes, and feature datasets as versioned, with the exception of the LRS_Locks table, which must remain unversioned:
    Remarque :

    If your LRS was last accessed using ArcMap or ArcGIS Pro 2.5 or earlier, there are four tables with the LRS_ prefix (LRS_Edit Log, LRS_Event Behavior, LRS_Locks, and LRS_Metadata).

    Once your LRS is upgraded using the Modify LRS tool in ArcGIS Pro 2.6 or later, the LRS_Event_Behavior and LRS_Metadata tables are no longer in use and can be removed.

    To register a feature class or table as versioned, use the Register As Versioned tool.

    There are two types of versioning available in ArcGIS Pro, each catering to particular workflows and deployment options.

    If you want to publish feature services, you must register your data using branch versioning. Traditional versioning is not supported for some Location Referencing functionality, including conflict prevention.

  11. To use editor tracking with intersections and any other feature classes and tables in your LRS, enable it on all participating feature classes and tables.
  12. Run the Modify LRS tool to update your LRS to work with ArcGIS Pro.

    The Modify LRS tool creates the LRS dataset in your LRS geodatabase. An error message appears if a geodatabase that contains the LRS dataset is opened in ArcMap.
