Create a Strip Map Tiling Page

Feature Description

Creating a strip map tiling page refers to generating a series of continuous bounding rectangles with specific lengths and widths along given linear features. These rectangular areas can be defined as tiling pages for strip maps and are commonly used in linear engineering projects such as road networks, power grids, oil pipelines, and river lines.

Note: The orientation of the resulting tiling pages is consistent with the node sequence of the source vector line data.

Parameter Description

Parameter Name Default Value Parameter Interpretation Parameter Type
Source Dataset The source vector dataset to be calculated, which must be a line dataset. DatasetVector
Obstacle Dataset (Optional) The obstacle dataset, which represents design segmentation points within the map sheet (e.g., administrative boundaries). When a generated rectangle encounters an obstacle, it will be truncated, and the calculation will restart. Supported types are point, line, and region. Its coordinate system should be consistent with the source dataset. DatasetVector
Target Datasource The datasource where the dataset storing the analysis results is located. Datasource
The Name of the Resulting Dataset The specified name for the result region dataset. String
The Length of the Rectangular Page The length of the generated rectangular page along the line. It must be greater than 0. The unit is consistent with that of the source dataset. When the source dataset uses a planar (projected) coordinate system, the unit is meters by default; for a geographic (latitude/longitude) coordinate system, the unit is degrees by default. double
The Width of the Rectangular Page The width of the generated rectangular page, perpendicular to the line. It must be greater than 0. The unit is consistent with that of the source dataset. When the source dataset uses a planar (projected) coordinate system, the unit is meters by default; for a geographic (latitude/longitude) coordinate system, the unit is degrees by default. double

Newly generated fields in the result table:

  • "ObjectID": Represents the SmID of the source dataset.
  • "PageNumber": Represents the sequence of the generated result rectangles along the line direction (starting from 1).
  • "Angle": Represents the angle of the resulting tiling rectangle page (calculated counterclockwise from the due east direction).
