Data Model & Concepts

• Understand the data model and concepts before coding

Data Model & Concepts

• Basic table schema:• relationships between fabric tables

• Line categories

• Shared points, overlapping lines, line-points

Data Model & Concepts

• Units, projections and geographic datums

• Points, control points, geometry vs coordinate attributes

• Lines and curves, geometry versus attributes

Data Model & Concepts

• Line-strings

• Unclosed parcels

• Unjoined parcels / empty geometries

Data Model & Concepts

• The 3 classifications of fields:• Geometry & System fields

• MiscloseDistance, Shape_Length …

• Private fields• Bearing, Distance, Radius….

• Public fields• Name, MyCustomField1, ….

Parcel Locking & Jobs

• Multi-user environment: Jobs and Parcel locks

• Document section

Parcel Locking & Jobs

• When programmatically editing any of the fields shown below, the code must acquire a lock on the parcel

Parcel Locking & Jobs

• Roles of Jobs• Describes a group of Parcels

• Stored in the geodatabase

• Export to Cadastral XML

• Edit tracking

• Re-selection (since ids are stored)

• Automatically Includes Associated Control

• Coding: represents a packet that manages the parcels & related lines/points

• Multi-user environment manages Parcel Edit locks

Parcel Locking & Jobs

• Multi-user environment manages Parcel Edit locks• Create a Cadastral Job

• Test to make sure another Version doesn’t already have a lock

• Parcel Fabric Events

• GitHub Commit for Sample Solutions Code:

Parcel Editing

• Sample Code• Editing of fabric tables directly – changing a line to a circular curve

• Editing fabric using a Cadastral Packet – adding a new parcel

Parcel Editing Events

• Sample Code

• Document

Demo: Testing/Running/Viewing New sample code

New API in 10.4

• ICadastralFabricUpdate

• Document

New API in 10.4

• Code snippet:

Making custom functionality with Add-ins

• Batch report Close Points, with option to Merge

• Easier and Quicker entry of multiple Line Points

• Adding a spiral

• Flipped bearings on line re-sequence (counter-clockwise parcels)

• Getting misclose information on selected lines within a construction
