Network Analyst Layer properties

Resumen

The Describe function returns the following properties for Network Analyst Layers.

A Network Analyst Layer returns a dataType of "NALayer".

A Network Analyst Layer contains information about the inputs and parameters used in the analysis of a network problem using the ArcGIS Network Analyst extension.

Propiedades

PropiedadExplicaciónTipo de datos
network
(Sólo lectura)

The Network Dataset object.

This object can be used to get all the properties, such as catalogPath, of the underlying network dataset used by the analysis layer.

Object
nameString
(Sólo lectura)

The name of the Network Analyst layer.

String
solverName
(Sólo lectura)

The Network Analyst solver being referenced by the layer. Each layer can reference only one solver. This property returns the following keywords:

  • Route Solver
  • Closest Facility Solver
  • Service Area Solver
  • OD Cost Matrix Solver
  • Vehicle Routing Problem Solver
  • Location-Allocation Solver

String
impedance
(Sólo lectura)

The network cost attribute used as the impedance during the analysis.

String
accumulators
(Sólo lectura)

A semicolon-separated list of network cost attributes that are accumulated as part of the analysis.

String
restrictions
(Sólo lectura)

A semicolon-separated list of restriction attributes that are applied for the analysis.

String
ignoreInvalidLocations
(Sólo lectura)

A Boolean expression indicating the way in which the solver considers invalid network locations within the Network Analyst classes.

A value of True indicates that the invalid locations are ignored by the solver. False indicates that the invalid locations are not ignored by the solver.

Boolean
uTurns
(Sólo lectura)

Indicates how the U-turns at junctions, which could occur during network traversal between stops, are being handled by the solver. This property returns the following keywords:

  • ALLOW_UTURNS
  • NO_UTURNS
  • ALLOW_DEAD_ENDS_ONLY
  • ALLOW_DEAD_ENDS_AND_INTERSECTIONS_ONLY

String
useHierarchy
(Sólo lectura)

Indicates if the Network Analyst Layer is using Hierarchy. This property returns the following keywords:

  • USE_HIERARCHY
  • NO_HIERARCHY

String
hierarchyAttribute
(Sólo lectura)

The name of the hierarchy attribute.

String
hierarchyLevelCount
(Sólo lectura)

The number of hierarchy ranges used to define the hierarchy attribute. The maximum value is 3.

Integer
maxValueForHierarchyX
(Sólo lectura)

A given hierarchy attribute can have values that define the hierarchy ranges. The maximum values for each range can be obtained from maxValueForHierarchyX property, where X indicates the hierarchy level. For example, the maximum value for the first hierarchy range (used to define the primary roads) can be obtained from the property maxValueForHierarchy1.

Use the hierarchyLevelCount property to determine the possible number of maxValueForHierarchy properties for a given hierarchy attribute. For example, if the hierarchyLevelCount property returns 3, then the Describe object will support MaxValueForHierarchy1 and MaxValueForHierarchy2 properties.

Integer
locatorCount
(Sólo lectura)

The total number of classes that are used to search through for determining a network location.

Integer
locators
(Sólo lectura)

The Network Analyst Locator object. This object can be used to obtain name, snap type, and the search query information for the classes that are used for finding network locations.

Object
findClosest
(Sólo lectura)

Indicates how the network source features are searched when locating network analysis objects. This property returns the following keywords:

  • MATCH_TO_CLOSEST
  • PRIORITY

String
searchTolerance
(Sólo lectura)

A space-separated string indicating the search tolerance and the units used when finding the network locations.

String
excludeRestrictedElements
(Sólo lectura)

Indicates if the network analysis objects can be located only on traversable portions of network sources This property returns the following keywords:

  • INCLUDE
  • EXCLUDE

String
solverProperties
(Sólo lectura)

The Network Analyst Solver object. This object can be used to determine the solver-specific properties in a Network Analyst layer.

Object
children
(Sólo lectura)

Returns a Python List of describe objects that reference individual network analysis classes (such as stops and routes) as layers.

This property cannot be used with the network analysis layer stored on disk as a layer file.

List
parameterCount
(Sólo lectura)

The total number of attribute parameters defined for all the network attributes of the underlying network dataset used by the Network Analyst layer.

Integer
parameters
(Sólo lectura)

The Network Attribute Parameter object. This object can be used to determine the attribute parameters used for the network analysis.
