Classes

 ClassDescription
ClassAddRepresentation Adds a feature class representation to a geodatabase feature class.
ClassAggregatePoints Creates polygon features around clusters of proximate point features.
ClassAggregatePolygons Combines polygons within a specified distance to each other into new polygons.
ClassAlignMarkerToStrokeOrFill Align the representation marker symbols of a point feature class to the nearest stroke or fill representation symbols in a line or polygon feature class within a specified search distance.
ClassCalculateAdjacentFields The most common use case for using this tool is to populate fields that can be used to label the adjacent pages in a map book. This tool appends eight new fields (each field representing one of the eight points of the compass: North, Northeast, East, Southeast, South, Southwest, West and Northwest) to the input feature class and calculates values that identify the adjacent (neighboring) polygons, in each cardinal direction, for each feature in the input feature class.
ClassCalculateCentralMeridianAndParallels Calculates the central meridian and optional standard parallels based on the center point of a feature's extent; stores this coordinate system as a spatial reference string in a specified text field and repeats this for a set, or subset, of features.
ClassCalculateGridConvergenceAngle Calculates the rotation angle for true north based on the center point of each feature in a feature class and populates this value in a specified field. This field can be used in conjunction with Data Driven Pages to rotate each map to true north.
ClassCalculateLineCaps Modifies the cap type (ending style) for representation stroke symbols and stores it as an override.
ClassCalculatePolygonMainAngle Calculates the dominant angles of input polygon features and assigns the values to a specified field in the feature class.
ClassCalculateRepresentationRule Applies existing representation rules to features in a feature class representation by calculating the RuleID field.
ClassCalculateUTMZone Calculates a UTM zone of each feature based on the center point and stores this spatial reference string in a specified field. This field can be used in conjunction with Data Driven Pages to update the spatial reference to the correct UTM zone for each map.
ClassCollapseDualLinesToCenterline Derives centerlines from dual-line (or double-line) features, such as road casings, based on specified width tolerances.
ClassContourAnnotation Creates annotation for contour features.
ClassCreateOverpass Allows intersecting lines to be displayed as overpassing one another by creating bridge parapets and masks to cover the underlying road segment.
ClassCreateUnderpass Allows intersecting lines to be displayed as under passing one another by creating bridge parapets and masks to cover the underlying road segment.
ClassCulDeSacMasks Creates a feature class of polygon masks from a symbolized input line layer.
ClassDeleteGridsAndGraticules Deletes all the features associated with one or more selected grid and graticule layers from a feature dataset.
ClassDetectGraphicConflict Creates polygons where two or more symbolized features graphically conflict.
ClassDisperseMarkers Finds representation markers that are overlapping or too close to one another and spreads them apart based on a minimum spacing and dispersal pattern.
ClassDropRepresentation Deletes a feature class representation from a geodatabase feature class.
ClassFeatureOutlineMasks Creates mask polygons at a specified distance and shape around the symbolized features in the input layer.
ClassGridIndexFeatures Creates a grid of rectangular of polygon features that can be used as an index to specify pages for a map book using Data Driven Pages. A grid can be created that only includes polygon features that intersect another feature layer.
ClassIntersectingLayersMasks Creates masking polygons at a specified shape and size at the intersections of symbolized input layers.
ClassMakeGridsAndGraticulesLayer Creates a grouped layer of feature classes depicting grid, graticule, and border features using predefined cartographic specifications. Grid layers are ideal for advanced grid definitions which are scale and extent specific.
ClassMapServerCacheTilingSchemeToPolygons Creates a new polygon feature class from an existing tiling scheme.
ClassMergeDividedRoads Generates single line road features in place of matched pairs of divided road lanes.
ClassPropagateDisplacement Propagates the displacement resulting from road adjustment in the Resolve Road Conflicts and Merge Divided Roads tools to adjacent features.
ClassRemoveOverride Removes geometry and/or property representation overrides from features participating in a feature class representation.
ClassResolveBuildingConflicts Resolves symbol conflicts among buildings and with respect to linear barrier features by moving or hiding buildings.
ClassResolveRoadConflicts Resolves graphic conflicts among symbolized road features by adjusting portions of line segments.
ClassSelectFeatureByOverride Selects features that have representation geometry and/or property overrides.
ClassSetLayerRepresentation Sets a representation for a feature layer. The layer is temporary and stored in memory during the ArcGIS session, available for use in models and scripts.
ClassSetRepresentationControlPointAtIntersect This tool is commonly used to synchronize boundary symbology on adjacent polygons. It creates a representation control point at vertices that are shared by one or more line or polygon features.
ClassSetRepresentationControlPointByAngle Places a representation control point at vertices along a line or polygon boundary where the inner angle is less than or equal to a specified maximum angle.
ClassSimplifyBuilding Simplifies the boundary or footprint of building polygons while maintaining their essential shape and size.
ClassSimplifyLine Simplifies lines by removing extraneous bends while preserving essential shape.
ClassSimplifyPolygon Simplifies polygons by removing extraneous bends while preserving essential shape.
ClassSmoothLine Smooths sharp angles in lines to improve aesthetic or cartographic quality.
ClassSmoothPolygon Smooths sharp angles in polygon outlines to improve aesthetic or cartographic quality.
ClassStripMapIndexFeatures Creates a series of rectangular polygons, or index features, that follow a single linear feature or a group of linear features. These index features can be used with Data Driven Pages to define pages within a strip map, or set of maps that follow a linear feature. The resulting index features contain attributes that can be used to rotate and orient the map on the page and determine which index features, or pages, are next to the current page (to the left and right or to the top and bottom).
ClassThinRoadNetwork Generates a simplified road network that retains connectivity and general character to display at a smaller scale.
ClassTiledLabelsToAnnotation Converts labels to annotation for layers in a map document based on a polygon index layer.
ClassUpdateOverride Transfers feature representation overrides from the default override field to explicit fields as defined by the representation rules in the representation.
