Import SHP

Feature Description

ArcGIS Shapefile (*.shp) is a unique data format of ArcGIS software, used to store spatial data and attribute data. It is a common vector data format. The Import SHP tool is used to import *.shp data into a SuperMap iDesktopX datasource for use, without the need for other data format conversion operations, thereby improving data management efficiency.

Parameter Description

Parameter Name Parameter Interpretation Parameter Type
Select File Enter the path information of the data to be imported. String
Character Set Select the character set type of the file to be imported. The default is ASCII. Charset
Result Datasource Specify the datasource where the result dataset will be stored. Datasource
Result Dataset Specify the resulting dataset name. String
Group Supports importing data into a specified group. If no group is selected, the data is imported directly under the datasource. String
Encode Type The encoding type of the dataset to be generated. EncodeType
Import Schema Set the import mode when a dataset with the same name exists. ImportMode
Import Null Dataset Used to set whether to import empty datasets. It is unchecked by default. If the dataset to be imported is empty, this checkbox must be checked to import it; otherwise, it will not be imported. If the dataset to be imported is not empty, checking or unchecking this checkbox will still allow the dataset to be imported. Boolean
Import 3D Dataset If checked, the Z values in the source data will be retained after import, and the data will be imported as a 3D dataset. If unchecked, 3D data will be imported as 2D data. It is unchecked by default. Boolean
Import M Values When the source dataset contains M values, checking this option will retain the M values in the imported dataset. If unchecked, the M values will be discarded. It is unchecked by default. Boolean
Create Spatial Index Set whether to create a spatial index for the imported dataset. It is checked by default. If checked, a spatial index will be created for the dataset according to the index types supported by the dataset, which can improve the efficiency of spatial query and access. Boolean
Import Attributes Used to set whether to import attribute information. It is checked by default. If checked, attributes will be imported along with the spatial data; otherwise, only the geometry will be imported without attributes. Boolean
