Adding point events to a route from a reference offset location

Characteristics of a route, such as crashes and traffic count sites, can be represented as a point event offset from an existing point feature class. The Point Events tool provides an interface to add point events into the geodatabase. The reference offset data is translated to routes and measures for storage.

注注:

If the event ID field in the event layer is not a String data type (minimum 32-character length), the Roadway Characteristics Editor (RCE) will not provide an event ID and will not support editing of that event. It’s important to model internal events with an event ID. Also see Overview of the Roadway Characteristics Editor deployment guide.

步骤:
  1. Open a web browser and browse to the Roadway Characteristics Editor.
  2. On the Edit tab, in the Edit Events group, click Point Events.
    Adding point events
    The Add Point Events dialog box appears.
  3. Click the Network (LRM) drop-down arrow and select the network that will serve as a source LRM for defining the input measures for the new point events.
  4. Type the route ID on which the new event measure will be provided in the Route ID text box, or use the Select a Route on the Map tool Select a Route on the Map to pick the route from the map.
    Selecting routes
  5. In the Location section, click the Method drop-down arrow and choose Route Intersections Offset.

  6. For intersection Location, use the Select a Location on the Map tool Select From Measure on the Map to pick a point feature that participates in the layer selected for offsetting on the map.
  7. Provide the Offset value for the reference offset using any one of these options.
    • Select the direction of the offset using the Direction drop-down arrow, type the offset value, and select the units.
    • Type the value and select the units.
    • Use the Select an Offset Location on the Map tool Select a Route on the Map to pick a location along the route on the map.

    A red cross symbol is placed on the new offset location along the route on the map.

  8. Provide the Start Date and End Date for the events.
  9. Click Next.
  10. Follow steps 9 through 11 from the Adding point events by route and measure topic to enter and save the attributes for the events.
