All Implemented Interfaces:

GPTool

public class CheckGeometry
extends AbstractGPTool

Generates a report of the geometry problems in a feature class. The Check Geometry tool is contained in the Data Management Tools tool box.

Usage tips:

• The Output Table will have a record for each geometry problem discovered. If no problems are found the table will be empty.
• The Output Table has the following fields:
• The PROBLEM field will contain one of the following:
• The problem identified by this tool can be addressed in the following ways:
• For multipoint features, only the null geometry and empty part problems apply.
• For point features, only the null geometry problem applies.
• To facilitate the review of the features which are reported to have geometry problems in ArcMap you can join the Input Features to the Output Table using the tool. Simply join using the input's ObjectID field, and the output table's FEATURE_ID field. You may also uncheck the Keep All option so that only features with geometry problems are displayed.

Constructor Detail

CheckGeometry

public CheckGeometry()

Creates the Check Geometry tool with defaults.

Initializes the array of tool parameters with the default values specified when the tool was created.

CheckGeometry

public CheckGeometry(Object inFeatures,
                     Object outTable)

Creates the Check Geometry tool with the required parameters.

Initializes the array of tool parameters with the values as specified for the required parameters and with the default values for the other parameters.

Parameters:

inFeatures - one or more feature classes or feature layers that will be checked for geometry problems. Valid input formats are shapefile and feature classes stored in a personal geodatabase or file geodatabase.

outTable - the table that will contain the list of problems that were discovered in the input features.
