CheckIntersectingFeatures (arcpy.na)

Récapitulatif

Returns a Boolean indicating whether the number of edge source features from the specified network dataset that are intersected by the features within the specified feature layer is less than or equal to the specified cutoff. The function is useful to restrict the number of features that can be loaded as line or polygon barriers into a network analysis layer.

Discussion

The function is used to restrict the number of features that can be loaded into sublayers, especially line and polygon barriers, of network analysis layers. While loading polygon barriers, the software needs to figure out the intersection between the polygon features and the edge sources from the network dataset. This process can be slow if the polygon features intersect many edge sources such as a state or county boundary. For example, while authoring a geoprocessing service that performs routing analysis, you might want to restrict the features that are loaded as polygon barriers. To have a reasonable service response time, you could restrict loading of polygon barriers if they intersect more than 5,000 edge source features from the network dataset. This function can be easily used to perform such a check.

Syntaxe

CheckIntersectingFeatures (network_dataset_path, feature_layer, {cutoff})

Paramètre	Explication	Type de données
network_dataset_path	A variable that references the catalog path of the network dataset. Each edge source in this network dataset will be considered while performing the check. The catalog path of a network dataset can be obtained from the dataSource property of a network dataset layer or a network analysis layer object. It can also be obtained from the catalogPath property of a network dataset Describe object.	String
feature_layer	A variable that references the Layer object containing the features that are intersected with the edge sources. Any selection set or definition query present on the Layer object is honored and can be used to specify only a subset of features.	Layer
cutoff	An integer value used as a cutoff while performing the check. (La valeur par défaut est 5000)	Long

Valeur renvoyée

Type de données	Explication
Boolean	If the specified features that intersect the edge source features from the network dataset are less than or equal to the cutoff value, the function returns a True; otherwise, it returns a False.

Exemple de code

CheckIntersectingFeatures example (workflow)

The example shows how to find the best route between some store locations considering weather conditions as slowdown areas. It illustrates how to use the CheckIntersectingFeatures function to test that the weather polygons to be used as polygon barriers do not intersect more than a specified number of edge source features from the network dataset. If the condition is not met, the script raises a standard error message.
