Adding Tiers to the Asset Package

TSmith

Got a question about adding tiers to a Utility Network. I believe I would have to convert an Asset Package to a UN, then add the tier, then go back to an asset package. 

Is there a supported workflow to add tiers or other network items to the asset package, prior to conversion? The "Add Tier" GP tool only takes a UN object as input.

 

Thanks for any pointers!

@TSmith, @gis_KIWI4 you can do it directly in the asset package. 

Here is a link to the asset package schema.

You'll need to add a row to the B_Tier table, then create a subnetwork definition for the tier by populating all the B_Subnetwork_* tables with the correct info.

Ideally you can model the subnetwork definition after an existing tier in your network. That is to say you can create duplicate rows in those tables from an existing tier, update the tier name to represent your new tier, then modify the properties you need.
