Event behavior

适用于 Location Referencing 许可。

Events are located along a route in a linear referencing system (LRS). Changes in the route due to route editing activities such as extend, realign, reassign, retire, reverse, cartographic realignment, and calibration have a direct impact on how events are located and how they are rendered on a map. Behavior changes with measure or geographic location, or both, on one or more events due to route editing is called event behavior.

ArcGIS Roads and Highways keeps event measures and geographic location (x,y) in alignment with route edits. You can configure event behavior rules for an individual event layer to define how event measures and shapes are updated for each type of route edit.

In the following example, a portion of Route1 is retired. This edit activity affects Event1 according to the event layer's configured event behavior.

注:

Events must be updated after route editing using the Apply Event Behaviors tool.

Before retirement

After the route is retired, the events are updated using event behavior rules, which are set at the event layer level.

After retirement

Types of event behavior rules

When an LRS route is edited, behavior rules are applied to the events. By configuring event behavior rules at the layer level, you can choose how the event responds when the route changes: preserve location, preserve measure, or maintain referent location.

Location Referencing supports the following event behaviors:

Event behavior ruleDescription

Stay Put

Preserves the geographic location of the event; measures can change.

Move

Preserves the measure or measures of the event; geographic location can change.

Retire

Preserves both measure and geographic location; event is retired.

Snap

Preserves the location of an event by snapping the event to a reassigned or abandoned route; measure or measures can change.

Cover

Changes both measure and geographic location to make the event go across the entire route.

Honor Route Measure

Preserves the measure of the event or changes the measure proportionally to the route measure change.

Honor Referent Location

Changes both measure and geographic location to maintain the referent location of the event using a persistent offset value.

To understand how LRS events get updated due to the route edit type for each event behavior rule, refer to:

Configuration of event behavior rules

Default event behavior is configured during the event registration process when using either the Create LRS Event or Create LRS Event From Existing Dataset tool.

The following event behavior rules are set by default:

ActivityRule

Calibrate Route

Stay Put

Retire Route

Extend Route

可使用修改事件行为规则工具在 LRS 网络中修改路线校准路线停用路线延长路线重新分配路线重新对齐路线反转的默认行为。

注:

对于已选中“下游重新校准”的任何 LRS 路线编辑,配置的校准事件行为将应用于下游弧段。 可通过查看 LRS 事件属性查看配置的事件行为。

Application of event behavior

To apply event behaviors after route edits, execute the Apply Event Behaviors tool for the route network. This tool processes event behaviors for all event feature classes registered to the route network.

The Apply Event Behaviors tool does not need to run after each route edit activity. You can schedule it to run based on your business requirements. It only processes event behaviors for those routes that have been edited but not yet processed.
