Align Representation Markers (Nautical)

Résumé

Adjusts the placement of overlapping point symbols so they draw correctly on nautical charts. This process involves two features: inputs and aligners. The input features are items such as buoys, beacons, or light structures, and the aligners are features such as topmarks. To ensure that the two features draw correctly on the map, the aligner representations are rotated and offset from the input representations.

Within the representations for both features, there is a stroke, or line, that serves as its base. The first vertex of this stroke is the starting point of the symbol, while the second vertex controls the angle reference and the offset for representations of associated features. That is, the second vertex is the base from which the displacement angle and the offset are calculated. The stroke has no color to symbolize it.

Usage

Syntaxe

AlignRepresentationMarkers_nautical (in_master_features, {in_master_sql_expression}, in_master_feature_representation, in_slave_features, {in_slave_sql_expression}, in_slave_feature_representation, {in_displacement_angle}, {in_displacement_distance})
ParamètreExplicationType de donnée
in_master_features

The feature class or layer whose representations need to be aligned.

Feature Layer
in_master_sql_expression
(Facultatif)

An SQL expression that defines which features from the input feature class are going to have their representations aligned.

Feature class subtypes for beacons include 1 (beacon cardinal), 5 (beacon isolated danger), 10 (beacon lateral), 15 (beacon safe water), and 20 (beacon special purpose).

Feature class subtypes for buoys include 25 (buoy cardinal), 30 (buoy installation), 35 (buoy isolated danger), 40 (buoy lateral), 45 (buoy safe water), and 50 (buoy special purpose).

RemarqueRemarque :

Since input and aligner features are in the same feature class, it is recommended that you define a query for the features to use as the input features.

SQL Expression
in_master_feature_representation

The feature class that contains the representations for the input feature class.

The representation rule you choose should correspond with the features selected using the SQL expression for the input features.

String
in_slave_features

The feature class or layer that contains the features that are associated with the input features. These include topmarks and radar reflectors.

Feature Layer
in_slave_sql_expression
(Facultatif)

An SQL expression that defines which features from the aligner feature class are going to have their representations aligned.

Feature class subtypes for equipment include 55 (daymark) and 110 (topmark).

RemarqueRemarque :

Since input and aligner features are in the same feature class, it is recommended that you define a query for the features to use as the aligner features.

SQL Expression
in_slave_feature_representation

The feature class that contains the representations for the aligner feature class.

The representation rule you choose should correspond with the features selected using the SQL expression for the aligner features.

String
in_displacement_angle
(Facultatif)

The value, in degrees, that the aligner representation should be rotated from the input representation. This angle is calculated clockwise from the north (0°).

When this value is specified, it overrides the angle from the base stroke in the input representation. It is the second vertex within this stroke that usually determines the rotation angle.

Double
in_displacement_distance
(Facultatif)

The distance between the aligner representation and the input representation. The displacement distance is applied after the aligner representation has been rotated. This distance can only be calculated in page units.

Linear unit
