Compare Layer to Snapshot

Краткая информация

In conjunction with the Calculate Layer Snapshot tool, selects features that have had geometry, extent, or symbology changes.

Использование

• This tool accepts points, polylines, polygons, and annotation feature layers as input.

• The Calculate Layer Snapshot tool creates data required by this tool. You must enable a feature class for snapshot change tracking by running the Calculate Layer Snapshot tool first.

• This tool compares the extent value stored in each feature's Snapshot Field to the present value of geometry, extent, and symbol. If any discrepancies are found between the two values, the tool will add a feature to the Input Features selection set. Discrepancies can include geometry modifications such as splitting or extending a polygon, moving a geometry, or changing any symbol property.

• To run this tool against multiple inputs, each input layer must have a commonly named Snapshot Field attribute.

Синтаксис

arcpy.production.CompareLayerToSnapshot(in_features, snapshot_field_name, invert_selection)

Параметр	Объяснение	Тип данных
in_features [in_features,...]	The input list of feature layers and feature classes to check for geometry and symbology changes.	Layer
snapshot_field_name	The field name containing the checksum values created by Calculate Layer Snapshot.	String
invert_selection	Specifies if the tool should select changed features or invert the selection to unchanged features. SELECT_UNCHANGED —Select only features whose geometries, extents, and symbols have not changed. SELECT_CHANGED —Select only features whose geometries, extents, and symbols have changed. This is the default.	Boolean

CompareLayerToSnapshot example (Python window)

The following Python window script demonstrates how to use the CompareLayerToSnapshot tool.

import arcpy

# Run the Calculate Layer Snapshot tool on this data using a 'snapshot' field before running this script.
# set gp environment
arcpy.env.workspace = "C:/data/Austin.gdb"
arcpy.env.addOutputsToMap = True
arcpy.env.overwriteOutput = True

#local variables
railroad="RailRoadL"
railLayer = "railLayer"
snapshotField="snapshot"
invertSelection="SELECT_UNCHANGED"

# check for a snapshot field
field_names = [f.name for f in arcpy.ListFields(railroad,snapshotField,"LONG")]
if field_names.count(snapshotField) < 1:
    print "Missing snapshot field - run CalculateLayerSnapshot first"
else:
    # create a feature layer from railroad
    arcpy.MakeFeatureLayer_management(railroad, railLayer)

    # execute the Compare Layer To Snapshot tool
    arcpy.CompareLayerToSnapshot_production(railLayer,snapshotField,invertSelection)

    # get a count of selected features
    desc = arcpy.Describe(railLayer)
    selectedFids = desc.FIDSet

    # write selected features to a new feature class
    if len(selectedFids) > 0:
	   arcpy.CopyFeatures_management(railLayer,"in_memory/unchangedfeatures")

CompareLayerToSnapshot example 2 (stand–alone script)

The following stand-alone Python script demonstrates how to use the CompareLayerToSnapshot tool.

# Name: CompareLayerToSnapshot_Example.py
# Description: Uses Production Mapping Layer Snapshot functionality to
#  find and writes changed features (in this example - symbols) to a new feature class
# Requirements: Esri Production Mapping

import arcpy, sys

# check out a foundation license
arcpy.CheckOutExtension("Foundation")

# set the current workspace
arcpy.env.workspace = "C:/data/Austin.gdb"
arcpy.env.overwriteOutput = True

# local variables
railroad = "RailroadL"
railLayer = "railLayer"
snapshotField="snapshot"
invertSel = "SELECT_CHANGED"

# make a feature layer from the RailRoadL feature class
arcpy.MakeFeatureLayer_management(railroad,railLayer)

# check for a snapshot field
field_names = [f.name for f in arcpy.ListFields(railroad,snapshotField,"LONG")]
if field_names.count(snapshotField) < 1:
    print "Missing snapshot field - run CalculateLayerSnapshot first"
    sys.exit(0)

# check for changed features in the snapshot field
arcpy.CompareLayerToSnapshot_production(railLayer,snapshotField,invertSel)
print arcpy.GetMessages()

# describe the feature layer to access the the selected set
desc = arcpy.Describe(railLayer)

# FIDSet will contain the selected features
selectedFids = desc.FIDSet

# If there are selectedFids (a selection set), write them to a new feature
# class in the current workspace.
if len(selectedFids) > 0:
	arcpy.CopyFeatures_management(railLayer,"changedfeatures")
	print arcpy.GetMessages()
