Schematic diagrams from network datasets

The ArcGIS Network Analyst extension allows you to solve common network problems, such as finding the best route across a city, finding the closest emergency vehicle or facility, identifying a service area around a location, or servicing a set of orders with a fleet of vehicles. Networks used by ArcGIS Network Analyst are stored as network datasets that incorporate an advanced connectivity model representing complex scenarios, such as multimodal transportation networks.

Schematic diagram generation and update are managed by Schematics builders. When working with network datasets, the Network Dataset builder allows generating schematic diagrams from any network analysis layer containing a performed Route, Closest Facility, Service Area, or Vehicle Routing Problem network analysis.

In this Help book, you will learn more about the generation and update of diagrams based on the Network Dataset builder, the way this builder operates, and its specificities.

To configure your diagram template with the Network Dataset builder, you must use the Schematic Dataset Editor utility. The Configuring the Network Dataset builder topic in the Schematic Dataset Editor Help system details the Network Dataset builder parameters and the steps required to configure your diagram template and make it work with this builder.

Licencia:

The ArcGIS Network Analyst extension must, of course, be installed and licensed, and the extension must be enabled before you can perform any network analysis and generate schematic diagrams based on network analysis results.

Nota:

The Network Dataset builder can deal with any network analysis layer containing a performed Route, Closest Facility, Service Area, or Vehicle Routing Problem network analysis. The only exception is the OD cost matrix analysis result that cannot be used as input for the Network Dataset builder.
