Importing and baselining existing AML data (Maritime Charting)

If you have existing AML data that needs to be imported into the geodatabase for further modifications, you need to first baseline your data within the geodatabase. The baselining process consists of the following steps:

1. Importing your AML cell into the production database (Desktop only)
2. Checking out the AML production database
3. Reconciling and posting to DEFAULT
4. Creating an edit version from DEFAULT
5. Preparing data for export to S-57 format
6. Exporting a New Edition dataset file

The following sections cover these steps in detail.

Importing your AML cell into the production database

The first step of the baseline process is creating your production database and importing your AML cell into the production database, which is performed using the New Nautical Product wizard. Both creating the production database and importing the AML cell are done by the wizard.

Before you can access the New Nautical Product wizard, you must have a product library set up and configured for the desktop production workflow. This means that a product class should be configured for the AML product you want to create and a series created.

注:

You need to set the required Nautical properties before launching the New Nautical Product wizard.

步骤:

1. Start ArcMap.
2. If necessary, open the Product Library window by clicking Customize > Production > Product Library on the main menu.

   A tree view of the product library appears.
3. If necessary, expand Product Library and Products.
4. Right-click the series for which you want to create a product and click New Nautical Product.

   The Overview area of the New Nautical Product wizard appears.

5. Review the content in the Overview area.
6. 单击下一步。
7. Click Import Existing Cell.
8. Click the ellipsis (...) button and browse to the location where your AML S-57 cell is stored.
9. 单击确定。
10. 单击下一步。
The summary shows the AML S-57 cell's header information stored within the metadata table.
11. Review the summary.
12. If necessary, click Back to go back to the creation method and make any corrections.
13. Click Finish.

    A progress dialog box appears with the status of the creation process.

The progress dialog box provides detailed updates of the overall process, which includes:
• Creating the product and instance tree nodes
• Creating the production database
• Importing the applicable AML schema into the production database
• Enabling versioning and archiving for the applicable production database items
• Importing the AML S-57 cell into the production database
• Checking the production database into the product library
14. Click OK when the process completes.

Once your S-57 product is created, it is checked in to the product library, and you need to check it out to begin working on it.

Checking out the AML production database

After the New Nautical Product wizard has successfully created the AML production database and imported the AML S-57 cell, you need to check out the production database from the product library. This process attaches the AML production database, which is either an ArcSDE geodatabase for SQL Server Express licensed for ArcGIS for Desktop or ArcSDE geodatabase for SQL Server Express licensed for ArcGIS for Server Workgroup, to your local SQL Express server.

步骤:

1. Start ArcMap.
2. In the Product Library tree view, right-click the AML product and click Check Out Product.
   注:

   You need to define a temporary file location to store the production database as it gets created.

   A progress dialog box appears with the status of the checkout product process.

3. Click OK when the process is complete.
4. In ArcMap, expand the Catalog window and expand your Database Servers.
5. If necessary, double-click the SQL Express instance name to connect to it.
6. Expand the SQL Express instance.

   注:

   You should see your AML production database listed.

7. Expand your AML production database and drag the Nautical feature dataset into the map document data view.

   注:

   If the Check Out process failed and you do not see your AML production database under the SQL Express instance, look within the temporary file location for the .mdf file. If the file is there, you can manually attach the .mdf to your SQL Express instance.

Reconciling and posting to DEFAULT

After successfully importing your AML data into the applicable production database, checking out your AML production database, and loading it into the map document data view, you need to reconcile and post the data into the DEFAULT version.

步骤:

1. Connect to the import version in ArcMap.
2. Click the Production Start Editing button on the Production Editing toolbar.
   注:

   The Manage Features and Create Attributes, Update Attributes, or Metadata Attributes windows automatically appear when you start an edit session using the Production Start Editing tool.

   提示:

   If the Create Attributes, Update Attributes, or Metadata Attributes window does not appear when you start an edit session, click the Show/Hide Attributes button on the Manage Features window.

3. Click the Reconcile button on the Nautical toolbar.
4. Click the Nautical Post button on the Nautical toolbar.

   The data stored in your production database is moved into the DEFAULT parent version.

Creating an edit version from DEFAULT

After posting to the DEFAULT version, you need to stop the edit session, connect to the DEFAULT version, and create an edit version from DEFAULT. Make sure you connect to your edit version before moving to the next step.

步骤:

1. 使用下列方法之一打开版本管理器对话框：
   • 在目录树中，右键单击地理数据库连接，指向管理，单击管理地理数据库，然后单击版本选项卡。
   • 在 ArcMap 中，单击“版本管理”工具条上的版本管理器按钮。

5. 选择版本所需的访问权限级别：私有、公有或受保护的。
6. 单击确定创建新版本。

Performing quality control on S-57 data

After the data has been edited, and prior to export to S-57 format, quality control procedures must be performed. This ensures that invalid or missing features are found and corrected prior to exporting.

ArcGIS for Maritime:Charting includes a batch job for each AML product to check that all mandatory attributes are populated based on the V2.1 specification.

The following steps outline using ArcGIS Data Reviewer for Desktop functionality to perform batch validation.

步骤:

1. Start ArcMap.

25. Click OK.

    Any errors that are found are written to the Reviewer table automatically.

26. If errors are found, open the Reviewer table to see the mandatory attribute errors.

Preparing data for export to S-57 format

Prior to exporting from the geodatabase to S-57 format, the AML data must be quality controlled by running the S58 quality control checks against it with the Reviewer Batch Validate tool to ensure proper attribute encoding. Once the quality control process is complete, the data is prepared for export from the geodatabase to S-57 format by running the Update Primitives tool and executing Nautical Post.

步骤:

1. Click the Production Start Editing button on the Production Editing toolbar.
   注:

   The Manage Features and Create Attributes, Update Attributes, or Metadata Attributes windows automatically appear when you start an edit session using the Production Start Editing tool.

   提示:

   If the Create Attributes, Update Attributes, or Metadata Attributes window does not appear when you start an edit session, click the Show/Hide Attributes button on the Manage Features window.

2. On the main menu, click Customize > Toolbars > Nautical S-57.
3. Click the Update Primitives button on the Nautical S-57 toolbar.

   A message appears asking if you want to clean unnecessary nodes. If the check box is checked, the Update Primitives tool removes any unnecessary VC nodes and merges the remaining vector edges together.

   注:

   It is recommended that you check the Clean unnecessary nodes check box if it's the first time you are using this tool after importing a cell.

4. Click OK to update the cell.

   The tool begins to run, and you see a progress bar. When the process is complete, you are prompted to view the log file.

5. Choose an option:
   • Yes—If you want to view the log file.
   • No—If you don't want to view the log files.
   注:

   The location of the log files generated by the tool is different depending on your operating system:

   • On Windows XP, log files are written to <Installation location>\Documents and Settings\<User Login>\Application Data\ESRI\Production10.2.2\Nautical\.
   • On Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows Server 2008, log files are written to <Installation location>\Users\<UserLogin>\AppData\Roaming\ESRI\Production10.2.2\NAUTICAL\.

   If the location doesn't exist, the tool creates the space for it. The log file is saved in XML format.

   注:

   If linear or point feature records hold conflicting P_QUAPOS and/or P_POSACC values during the Update Primitives process, the resulting spatial feature is listed in the log file describing the attribute conflict. For example, if two recently inserted BOYLAT and FOGSIG point features are spatially coincident but hold different values for P_QUAPOS, then the resulting vector isolated spatial feature will be listed in the log file showing the two different QUAPOS values. Since the vector isolated node feature is still created via Update Primitives, you can modify this feature with the correct QUAPOS value.

6. If you choose to view the log file, close it when you are finished reviewing it to complete the process.
7. Click the Nautical Post button on the Nautical toolbar.
   提示:

   If the Nautical Post button is disabled, you must first reconcile any changes or run Update Primitives.

   提示:

   If you have unverified features in your edit version, a message appears notifying you that there are unverified features found in your version. You must verify all features before clicking the Nautical Post button again. The Select Unverified Features tool can help you find these features and review them.

Exporting a New Edition dataset file

The final step of the baseline process is exporting a New Edition file that contains all your geometry upgrades from the Update Primitives process.

If you need to perform general editing tasks on your existing AML product, see Editing AML features and continue with the rest of the steps in those procedures before exporting.

步骤:

1. If necessary, open the Product Library window by clicking Customize > Production > Product Library on the main menu.

   A tree view of the product library appears.
2. Navigate to and check out the product you want to export with the Open check box checked on the Check Out Product dialog box.
3. Right-click the product and click Export Nautical Product.

   The ENC Export dialog box Export Information area appears.

4. Click the S-57 Export Type drop-down arrow and choose New Edition.
5. Click the ellipsis button (...) in the Export Location area and browse to the location where you want to store your package.
   提示:

   If you previously exported from the product library, the output location you chose appears in the Export Location area.

6. Optionally, skip the next section and click Next if you don't want to attach files.

Attaching files

You have the option to attach files to your package, such as a supporting text or image file.

步骤:

1. Click Add in the Attach Files area.

   The Insert File dialog box appears.

2. Navigate to the location where the files you want to attach are stored.
3. Choose the files you want to add.
   提示:

   Use the SHIFT or CTRL keys to select multiple files if necessary.

4. 单击打开。
提示:

If you previously exported from the product library, the output location you chose appears in the Export Location area.

5. 单击下一步。

Adding metadata

You can view and modify your product's metadata values. The metadata is divided into two sections you can modify:

• Product level—Contains the DSID (Dataset Identification) and DSSI (Dataset Structure Information) fields found in an S-57 file. DSID provides information regarding the dataset's source and product description information. DSSI provides information concerning the structure of the dataset.
• Instance level—Contains the DSPM (Data Set Parameters) fields that allow you to define the types of measurement units and data used with the S-57 cell.

Each node in the metadata view represents the DSID, DSSI, and DSPM S-57 field. The left side of the view shows the metadata fields and the right side shows the values. You can input new values in the fields that are not disabled.

The metadata options are different depending on the task you are performing. For example, if you are exporting a New Edition file, you can set the Vertical Datum; however, if you are exporting an Update file, you cannot change this value.

Product metadata (DSID and DSSI)

You can add a comment, edit the Issue Date for new editions, and edit the Update Application date for DSID. You can edit the ATTF and NATF lexical levels for DSSI.

步骤:

1. If necessary, click the cell next to Comment and type a comment for the Data Set Identification.
2. If necessary, click the ellipsis button (...) next to Update Application Date and select your product's S-57 update application date.
3. If necessary, click the ellipsis button (...) next to Issue Date and select your product's S-57 issue date.
