Summary
Creates the Location Diagram for a Joint Operations Graphic (JOG) map sheet. The Location Diagram needs the JOG_Index features, WAC_Index features, ONC_Index features, and the LandPoly features for the area surrounding the processed sheet.
Usage
The MapIndex geodatabase needs to be extracted from the installed .zip folder before using this tool. The .zip folder is installed at <installation directory>\ArcGIS\EsriDefenseMapping\Desktop10.3.1\ReferenceData\MapIndex.zip and should be extracted in the same location. You need write permissions to the ReferenceData folder.
Syntax
CreateLocationDiagramData_defense (Input_Geodatabase, Input_Area_of_Interest, Input_WAC_Features, Input_ONC_Features, Input_Land_Features, Arrangement)
Parameter | Explanation | Data Type |
Input_Geodatabase | A VMap1JOG geodatabase that contains the CARTO feature dataset and JOG* feature classes. The Location Diagram will be appended to the feature classes in this geodatabase. | Workspace |
Input_Area_of_Interest | A polygon feature layer with a single selected feature used to identify the center and surrounding areas of interest (AOIs). The Location Diagram will be created within these AOIs. | Feature Layer |
Input_WAC_Features | The WAC features used by this tool to create the Location Diagram feature classes in the input geodatabase. The default value is <installation directory>\ArcGIS\EsriDefenseMapping\Desktop10.3.1\ReferenceData\MapIndex.mdb\MapIndex\WAC_Index. | Feature Class |
Input_ONC_Features | The ONC features used by this tool to create the Location Diagram feature classes in the input geodatabase. The default value is <installation directory>\ArcGIS\EsriDefenseMapping\Desktop10.3.1\ReferenceData\MapIndex.mdb\MapIndex\ONC_Index. | Feature Class |
Input_Land_Features | Land features used by this tool to create the Location Diagram feature classes in the input geodatabase. The default value is <installation directory>\ArcGIS\EsriDefenseMapping\Desktop10.3.1\ReferenceData\MapIndex.mdb\MapIndex\LandPoly. | Feature Class |
Arrangement | The specific arrangement of the JOG map sheet being produced.
| String |
Code sample
CreateLocationDiagramData example
The following code sample demonstrates how to use the tool.
# Importing necessary modules and checking out extensions
import arcpy
arcpy.CheckOutExtension('defense')
# Setting variables
jog_index = r'C:\Program Files (x86)\ArcGIS\EsriDefenseMapping\Desktop10.3\ReferenceData\MapIndex.gdb\MapIndex\JOG_Index'
selection_string = "NRN = ''"
# Making feature selection
arcpy.management.MakeFeatureLayer(jog_index, 'jog_index', selection_string)
arcpy.management.SelectLayerByAttribute('jog_index', "NEW_SELECTION")
# Running Location Diagram
Input_Database = r'C:\DATA\VMap1JOG.gdb'
arcpy.defense.CreateLocationDiagramData(Input_Database, 'jog_index', "#", "#", "#", "A2")
