An overview of the Cartography toolset

The Nautical toolbox's Cartography toolset provides tools that can be used to finish a nautical chart for final production. The Align Representation Markers and Generate Light Sectors tools are designed for the nautical community. Tools from the ArcGIS Cartography toolbox and Production Mapping toolbox have been added to facilitate production of nautical charts.

Tool

Description

Align Representation Markers

Adjusts the placement of representations for overlapping point features on paper charts. This means you can align symbols for topmarks and radar reflectors with their respective buoys, beacons, and light structures on the map.

Calculate Visual Specification

Contains rules that determine the way features should be depicted. This tool assigns representation rules and builds calculated fields on features for symbolization and labeling using a predefined specification.

フィーチャ アウトライン マスク(Feature Outline Masks)

入力レイヤ内でシンボル表示されたフィーチャの周囲に、指定した距離および形状でポリゴン マスクを作成します。

Generate Light Sector

Creates light sector features for signaling equipment based on a specified point feature class.

インターセクト レイヤ マスク(Intersecting Layers Masks)

シンボル表示された入力レイヤの交差部に、指定した形状およびサイズでマスキング ポリゴンを作成します。

Magnetic Calculator

Computes the magnetic field at point locations for a date you specify. You must provide an altitude or specify a field of type double in your data that contains altitude data. The date must be between 1/1/2005 and 12/31/2014. The magnetic value is calculated using the World Magnetic Model.

Magnetic Isolines

Creates isomagnetic lines in an extent for a date between 1/1/2005 and 12/31/2014 based on the World Magnetic Model. The tool uses a magnetic field parameter and line generation method to create a new polyline feature class.

格子線と経緯線レイヤの作成(Make Grids and Graticules Layer)

事前定義済みのカートグラフィック仕様に基づいてグリッド フィーチャ、経緯線フィーチャ、および境界線フィーチャを描写し、フィーチャクラスのグループ化レイヤを作成できます。グリッド レイヤは、縮尺/範囲固有の高度なグリッド定義に適しています。
