Creating route processing preferences (Aviation)

Route processing preferences are reusable and control how the Route Processing tool performs the following functions:

• Selects routes for processing
• Applies rules to routes during processing
• Sets route visibility
• Combines different identifiers for overlapping routes
• Offsets different routes

You create route processing preferences prior to running the Route Processing tool. You can create different preferences by giving each a unique name. You choose a specific named preference to apply to a route processing session.

Nota:

Your production database must contain the ATSRoute and ATSRoute_C feature classes.

Pasos:

1. Start ArcMap.
2. Make sure that the production properties are set correctly.

   Properties include the product library workspace, production database workspace, Data Model Version, and Instances Maintained. The Data Model Version needs to be set to an AIS-based data model.

3. On the main menu, click Customize > Production > Production Properties.

   The Production Properties dialog box appears.

4. Click Aviation Properties in the list on the left side of the Production Properties dialog box.
5. Under Tool Options, click the cell next to Route Processing Preferences.
6. Click the ellipsis (...) that appears next to Route Processing Preferences.

   The Route Processing Settings dialog box appears.

7. To add additional fields to the field selection list, complete the following process:
   Nota:

   Routes within an instance AOI that have matching attribute values for these fields are flagged for rule set processing. Adding additional fields to the field selection criteria will make the tool more selective in this initial step of processing.

   1. Click the ellipsis (...) next to the Field Selection text box.

      The Field Selection dialog box appears.
   2. Expand the ATSRoute_C or ATSRoute node to view the list of fields to include in the field selection.
   3. Check the check box next to any fields you want to include in the initial field selection step.
   4. Click OK.

      The Route Processing Settings dialog box appears. The Field Selection text box displays the additional fields you selected.

8. Click the button to the right of Default in the Route Rules table.

   Steps 7 through 10 cover how to change the Default rule. You can also create rule sets and rules.

12. To hide overlapping routes, complete the following process:
    1. Check Hide Overlapping Routes.
    2. Click the ellipsis (...) next to the Field Selection text box.
       Nota:

       The tool matches attribute values from visible routes to field values selected using this dialog box. Adding additional fields to the field selection criteria will make the tool more selective in this step of processing.

       The Field Selection dialog box appears.

    3. Expand the ATSRoute_C or ATSRoute node to view the list of fields to include in the field selection.
    4. Check the check box next to any fields you want to include in the initial field selection step.
    5. Click OK.

       The Route Processing Settings dialog box appears. The Field Selection text box displays the additional fields you selected.

13. To enable the tool to combine different identifiers from overlapping routes, complete the following process:
    Nota:

    The tool concatenates all different route identifiers into a delimited string. It stores the string in the IdentConcat_txt field of the ATSRoute_C feature class.

    1. Check Combine Identifiers.
    2. Click the ellipsis (...) next to the Field Selection text box.
       Nota:

       The tool will use the fields specified in the fields selection area to specify what fields to compare when determining which identifiers to concatenate. Adding additional fields to the field selection criteria will make the tool more selective in this step of processing.

       The Field Selection dialog box appears.

    3. Expand the ATSRoute_C or ATSRoute node to view the list of fields to include in the field selection.
    4. Check the check box next to any fields you want to include in the initial field selection step.
