- All Implemented Interfaces:
- GPTool
public class MakeGridsAndGraticulesLayer
- extends AbstractGPTool
Creates a grouped layer of feature classes depicting grid, graticule, and border features using predefined cartographic specifications. Grid layers are ideal for advanced grid definitions which are scale and extent specific.
The Make Grids and Graticules Layer tool is contained in the Cartography Tools tool box.
Usage tips:
- This tool is designed for projected maps that will be printed or exported. It is not meant for creating grids or graticules that dynamically update as the user navigates the map.
- You must input an area of interest to determine the extent of the grid layer to be created.
- In the Make Grids and Graticules Layer dialog box, once the Grid Template (XML file) parameter is defined, hover over or click the context-sensitive area immediately to the left of the parameter name to display grid type, description, rotation type, and scale type information for the defined XML grid definition template.
- The grid template XML file specifies grid components depicting measurements or locations for a primary and ancillary coordinates systems. All coordinate systems specified must share a common geographic coordinate system. If you want to change the primary coordinate system to one that uses a different datum than the default, say for example you change the coordinate system from one that uses WGS 1984 to one that uses NAD 1983, you must change each default ancillary coordinate systems to NAD 1983 as well.
- The grid template XML file creates grid components for up to four ancillary coordinate systems. The number of ancillary grids is specified by the XML file. You cannot add or delete ancillary coordinate systems, but you can override the default values.
- The Primary Coordinate System must be a projected coordinate system.
- Ancillary coordinate systems can be either a projected coordinate system or a geographic coordinate system.
- The spatial reference of the Input Feature Dataset should have the same geographic coordinate system as specified by the grid template XML file.
- The spatial reference of the Input Area of Interest should have the same geographic coordinate system as specified by the grid template XML file.
- If you are accessing the tool from ArcMap checking the Configure data frame and layout using grid settings checkbox ensures that the data frame on the layout is adjusted to best fit the created grid. The data frame's coordinate system, scale, rotation, size, extent, and clipping may be altered to match the XML grid specification. This setting is only available when the tool is executed from ArcMap's layout view and is not being run in the background. The default is to have this check box unchecked, which will not change any of your data frame properties.

- Parameters:
inTemplate - the XML grid definition template stores the specification's graphic properties for each grid layer. In addition to the graphic properties, which cannot be altered before execution, the definition has specific default values, exposed as parameters, that can be modified before execution. template files are located in the \ArcGIS\Desktop10.0\GridTemplates directory. Additional grid templates can be obtained and shared using the ArcGIS Resource Center. the ArcGIS Production Mapping extension provides a grid designer that allows you to create new templates as well as modify existing ones.inAoi - the feature layer or x,y extent used to determine the extent of the grid layer created.- Feature layer—Indicates you can choose the layer to use for the area of interest. Only one selected feature will be used from this layer. For layers that have more than one feature, the tool will only create a grid layer based on the first feature. The first feature is based on object id. All remaining features are ignored.
- Extent—Indicates you can use one of the following as the area of interest:
inputFeatureDataset - the feature dataset that will store the features. Grid-specific feature classes will be created if they do not already exist. If they already exist, and a grid with the same name and type as the one being created also exists, it will be overwritten. a grid with the same name and type as the one created will always be overwritten, regardless of the GP environment.outputLayer - the grouped layer of feature classes depicting grid, graticule, and border features. Each grid layer can be composed of a mask polygon, a clip polygon, segments(line), gridlines(line), ticks(line), endpoints(point), points(point), and annotation feature classes.
