Automatizace úkolů BA

Question

<\/HEAD>Mám různé úkoly, které vykonávám v práci a které zahrnují BA toolbar. Už mě unavují stále stejné klikání myší dokola a zajímalo by mě, jestli existuje způsob, jak některé z těchto úkolů skriptovat? První věc, kterou vždy udělám, když obdržím data, je 1. geokódování dat pomocí BA zip4 locator 2. Použití BA k vytvoření vrstvy zákazníků a vrstvy obchodů (nastavení poboček a nastavení zákazníků) 3. Použití nastavení zákazníků k přiřazení zákazníků k nejbližší lokaci. Používaje tyto kroky jako výchozí bod pro toto vlákno; jak mohu automatizovat některé z těchto úkolů? Měl bych použít model builder? Předem děkuji.<\/P><\/BODY><\/HTML>

Thanks so much Darren! I must admit, however, that I'm not much of a programmer and model builder is the extent of my programming in ArcMap so far. Could you break this down a little more for me?

I understand that if I've already created target groups that there is a targetgroup.xml file that is created in C:\My Output Data\Projects\...

Are you saying that in the bold text above that I can replace SegmentationClusters="'Top Tier';'Profesional Pride';Boomburbs" with the path to my .xml file?

Also, would I just save this as a stand alone python script and run it alone in something like IDLE? Like I said, I have some knowledge, but this would really be my first time working hands on with a python script. Thanks for teaching me.

Hi Brandon, As you have noted, the 'Target Groups' parameter does not exist within the 'Segmentation Penetration Map' gp tool. However, I have discussed this scenario with one of our developers and he suggested an alternative approach. You could create a Python tool that will accept the 'Target Group' XML file and 'Target Name' inside the 'Target Group.' In Python code, open the Target Group XML file, find the required target, read the segments inside that target and pass them to 'Segmentation Penetration Map.': arcpy.TargetMap_ba(SegmentationBase="Total Households", SegmentaionClusters="'Top Tier';'Professional Pride';Boomburbs", SegmentationLayer="US.ZIP5", SegmentationAnalysisResultFolder="C:/My Output Data/Projects/Default Project/Segmentation/Segmentation Analyses/Target Map", CreateReport="CREATE_REPORT", CreateFeatureClass="CREATE_OUT_FEATURECLASS") C:\My Output Data\Projects\Default Project\Segmentation\Target groups\Target Group\TargetGroup.xml We hope this is helpful and will keep an eye out for follow up questions. Thank you, Darren

Thanks Darren,

Yes, I've used the Iterate Field Values tool already in one of my models. I'm now looking to automate the creation of Target Penetration Maps, but the "Segmentation Penetration Map" Tool seems to be missing the ability for me to add my own target groups. I could use some help with that now.

For instance, in the Target Penetration Map Wizard, you can select a target group and it will map your core and Developmental segments. The toolbox won't let me choose a target group that already exists. Do you have any thoughts on that?
