ArcGIS Maritime properties

When working with ArcGIS Maritime, you can configure how certain tools behave and what rules they should use. These properties are set once after ArcGIS Maritime has been installed. These properties are not to be set again unless using different database connections or a new version of ArcGIS Maritime is installed. The following properties are set on the Nautical Properties pane of the Production Properties dialog box.

The following table shows which settings are configured by the install and which settings require a user input. All of the settings can be changed if necessary.

The ArcGIS Maritime properties and options or descriptions for setting them.

Property	Description	Default setting	Configuration required
Agency/FIDS Property	Indicates what naming/numbering convention features use when they are created.	4E/43110	Yes
Product XML file location	Location where all the product XML configuration files are stored.	Populated based on installation location	No
SCAMIN XML file location	The location of the XML file that defines the set of rules used by the SCAMIN tool.	For ENC production, it is populated automatically based on the installation location. For IENC production, you must set the property to the SCAMIN_IENC_2_3_EU_Sample.xml or the SCAMIN_IENC_2_3_US_Sample.xml depending on whether you want to use US based SCAMIN mapping, or EU based SCAMIN mapping.	No
Scratch Workspace Location	During certain processes like creating a Chart product, a scratch workspace location is needed when building the specific output.	Populated based on installation location	No
Unit Conversion	Unit conversion and rounding rules allow data values to be stored as different units without the loss of information when imported and/or edited in the geodatabase.	N/A	No, unless your organization requires values to be converted to different units. メモ: This property is present only when there are unit conversion tables in your product library.
