Network Dataset properties

Synthèse

The Describe function returns the following properties for network datasets. The Dataset property group is also supported.

For a network dataset, the Describe dataType property returns a value of "NetworkDataset".

A network dataset is used to model transportation networks.

Propriétés

PropriétéExplicationType de données
attributes
(Lecture seule)

Returns a list of Network Attribute objects.

Object
catalogPath
(Lecture seule)

The path of the network dataset.

String
defaultTravelModeName
(Lecture seule)

The name of the network dataset's default travel mode. Returns an empty string if the network dataset does not have a default travel mode.

String
directions
(Lecture seule)

Returns a Network Directions object defined for the network dataset. This object can be used to get directions information at the network dataset level. The directions property is available only if the supportsDirections property returns True.

Object
edgeSources
(Lecture seule)

Returns a list of Edge Source objects.

Object
elevationModel
(Lecture seule)

The network elevation model used to refine the connectivity of the network dataset. This property returns the following keywords:

  • None
  • Elevation Fields
  • Z Coordinate Values

String
historicalTrafficData
(Lecture seule)

Returns the Historical Traffic Data object defined for the network dataset. This object can be used to get historical traffic information such as the historical traffic tables used by the network dataset. This property is available only if the supportsHistoricalTrafficData property returns True.

Object
isBuildable
(Lecture seule)

Indicates whether the network dataset can be built. SDC-based network datasets cannot be built, as they are read-only.

Boolean
junctionSources
(Lecture seule)

Returns a list of Junction Source objects.

Object
liveTrafficData
(Lecture seule)

Returns a Live Traffic Data object defined for the network dataset. This object can be used to get information about live traffic properties, such as traffic feed name used by the network dataset. This property is available only if the supportsLiveTrafficData property returns True.

Object
networkType
(Lecture seule)

The type of workspace containing the network dataset. This property returns the following keywords:

  • Geodatabase
  • Shapefile

String
optimizations
(Lecture seule)

Returns a list of strings indicating which optimizations, if any, the network dataset uses. If the network dataset has a service area index to increase the speed at which service area polygons are calculated, the value Service Area Index is returned in the list of optimizations. If the network dataset is dissolved, the value Dissolve is returned in the list of optimizations. If no optimizations are present, an empty list is returned.

String
sources
(Lecture seule)

Returns a list of Network Source objects. This property returns all the sources for the network dataset. If you want to get a list of a particular source type—for example, only the edge sources—use the edgeSources property.

Object
supportsDirections
(Lecture seule)

Indicates whether the network dataset supports generating directions.

Boolean
supportsHistoricalTrafficData
(Lecture seule)

Indicates whether the network dataset supports the use of historical traffic information.

Boolean
supportsLiveTrafficData
(Lecture seule)

Indicates whether the network dataset supports the use of live traffic information.

Boolean
supportsTurns
(Lecture seule)

Indicates whether the network dataset supports turns.

Boolean
systemJunctionSource
(Lecture seule)

Returns a System Junction Source object defined for the network dataset. This property is not available with SDC-based network datasets, as they do not support system junction sources.

Object
timeZoneAttributeName
(Lecture seule)

The name of the time zone attribute. If the network dataset does not support time zones, this property returns an empty string.

String
timeZoneTableName
(Lecture seule)

The name of the time-zone table that stores the list of time zones used by the network dataset.

String
trafficSupportType
(Lecture seule)

The type of traffic data currently configured for this network dataset. This property returns the following keywords:

  • HISTORICAL
  • HISTORICAL_AND_LIVE
  • LIVE
  • NONE
If live traffic data is supported (supportsLiveTrafficData returns True), but a feed source has not been configured, this property will return HISTORICAL.

String
turnSources
(Lecture seule)

Returns a list of Turn Source objects.
