Class Summary | |
---|---|
AddItem | Adds a new blank or zero item to a new or existing INFO table. |

Append | Combines an unlimited number of coverages into a single coverage. |

ArcS57 | Converts ArcC/Info coverages to S-57 object files. |
Buffer | Creates buffer polygons around specified input coverage features. |
Build | Creates or updates feature attribute tables and polygon topology. |
Clean | Generates a coverage with correct polygon or arc–node topology. |
Clip | Uses the outside polygon boundary of the clip coverage to cookie-cut features and attributes from the input coverage. |
CollapseDualLinesToCenterline | Derives centerlines (single lines) from dual-line features, such as road casings, based on specified width tolerances. |
Create | Creates a new coverage. |
CreateLabels | Creates label points for polygons that have no labels and assigns each a User-ID. |
DefineProjection | Records the coordinate system information of the Input Coverage including any associated projection parameters, such as datum and spheroid. |
Dissolve | Creates a new coverage by merging adjacent polygons, lines, or regions that have the same value for a specified item. |
DLGArc | Converts a Standard or Optional formatted Digital Line Graph (DLG) file to a coverage. |
DropIndex | Drops an attribute index from the specified item and INFO table. |
DropItem | Deletes one or more items from an INFO table. |
Eliminate | Merges the selected polygons with neighboring polygons if they have the largest shared border or the largest area. |
Erase | Creates a new output coverage by overlaying the polygons of the erase coverage with the features of the input coverage. |
Export | Converts a coverage to an interchange file for transfer to another platform. |
FindConflicts | Finds where simplified buildings overlap or are too close to each other, based on a specified distance. |
Generate | Generates a coverage from coordinates stored in a file. |
IDEdit | Updates User-IDs in a coverage after they have been modified in a feature attribute table. |
Identity | Computes the geometric intersection of two coverages. |
Import | Converts an ARC/INFO export interchange file. |
IndexItem | Creates an attribute index to increase access speed to the specified item during query operations. |
Intersect | Computes the geometric intersection of two coverages. |
JoinItem | Joins the item definitions and values of two tables based on a shared item. |
Near | Computes the distance from each point in a coverage to the nearest arc, point, or node in another coverage. |
PointDistance | Computes the point-to-point distance between each point in a coverage to all points in the same or another coverage within a specified search radius. |
PointNode | Performs a spatial JOINITEM on the point coverage and the node coverage. |
PolyRegion | Converts polygons to regions in a one-to-one mapping in a region subclass. |
Project | Changes the coordinate system of your coverage including its datum or spheroid. |
RegionClass | Converts arcs to preliminary regions in a new or existing coverage or appends preliminary regions to an existing region subclass. |
RegionPoly | Converts a region subclass to a polygon coverage and creates an INFO table containing overlapping region information. |
Renode | Updates arc–node topology by renumbering nodes for the input coverage arcs and identifies arcs that share the same node locations. |
Reselect | Extracts selected features from an input coverage and stores them in the output coverage. |
S57Arc | Converts data from S-57 format to Arc/Iinfo coverages. |
SDTSExport | Creates a Spatial Data Transfer Standard (SDTS). |
SDTSImport | Creates ArcGIS coverages or grids from a Spatial Data Transfer Standard (SDTS) Topological Vector Profile (TVP) or Point Profile Transfer. |
SimplifyBuilding | Simplifies the boundary or footprint of building polygons while maintaining their essential shape and size. |
SimplifyLineOrPolygon | Simplifies a line or a polygon boundary by removing small fluctuations or extraneous bends from it while preserving its essential shape. |
Split | Clips portions of the input coverage into multiple coverages. |
Thiessen | Converts input coverage points to an output coverage of Thiessen proximal polygons. |
TigerArc | Converts a set of U.S. |
TigerTool | Converts a set of U.S. |
Tolerance | Sets a coverage's tolerances. |
Transform | Moves all features in a coverage based on a set of from and to control points. |
Ungenerate | Creates a text file of x,y coordinates from the input coverage. |
Union | Computes the geometric intersection of two polygon coverages. |
Update | Replaces the input coverage areas with the update coverage polygons using a cut and paste operation. |
VPFExport | Converts a coverage into either a Vector Product Format (VPF) Coverage or VPF Tile. |
VPFImport | Converts a VPF table to an INFO table, or converts either an untiled VPF coverage or VPF tile to an ARC/INFO coverage. |
VPFTile | Creates cross-tile topology for all tiled coverages in a Vector Product Format (VPF) database library, or topology for an individual tile in a VPF library. |
For those people who may be familiar with versions of ESRI's ARC/INFO and ArcInfo Workstation software, the Coverage toolbox contains tools that replicate the ARC commands and functionality. These tools only work with an ArcInfo license and will only be available in ArcToolbox if you have installed ArcInfo Workstation. Coverages cannot be stored using spaces in their names.
