Upgrade Network (Network Analyst)
Summary
Upgrades the schema of the network dataset. Upgrading the network dataset allows the network dataset to make use of the new functionality available in the current software release.
Usage
-
Before the network dataset can be upgraded, the geodatabase must be first upgraded to the current release using the Upgrade Geodatabase tool.
Syntax
UpgradeNetwork_na (in_network_dataset)
Parameter | Explanation | Data Type |
in_network_dataset |
The network dataset to be upgraded. The network dataset must be a geodatabase-based network dataset. | Network Dataset Layer |
Code Sample
UpgradeNetwork example 1 (Python window)
Execute the tool using all the parameters.
import arcpy arcpy.env.workspace = "C:/Data/Socal.gdb" arcpy.UpgradeNetwork_na("Transportation/Streets_ND")
UpgradeNetwork example 2 (workflow)
The following stand-alone Python script demonstrates how the UpgradeNetwork tool can be used to upgrade the schema of a network dataset.
# Name: UpgradeNetwork_Workflow.py # Description: Upgrades the schema of a network dataset by first upgrading the # geodatabase containing the network dataset and then upgrading the # network dataset. The network dataset is also built so that it can # be used to perform network analyses. # Requirements: Network Analyst Extension #Import system modules import arcpy from arcpy import env try: #Check out the Network Analyst extension license arcpy.CheckOutExtension("Network") #Set environment settings env.workspace = "C:/data/RhodeIsland.gdb" env.overwriteOutput = True #Set local variables #inNetworkDataset = "Transportation/Streets_ND" inNetworkDataset = "RhodeIsland/RhodeIsland_ND" #Before upgrading the network dataset, upgrade the file GDB that contains #the network dataset arcpy.UpgradeGDB_management(env.workspace) #Upgrade the network dataset arcpy.UpgradeNetwork_na(inNetworkDataset) #The upgraded network dataset is not built. So build the network dataset arcpy.BuildNetwork_na(inNetworkDataset) print "Script completed successfully" except Exception as e: # If an error occurred, print line number and error message import traceback, sys tb = sys.exc_info()[2] print "An error occured on line %i" % tb.tb_lineno print str(e)
