Hey everyone I was tasked with creating a local government Network Dataset for our facility. I have fully built the network and it is able to route around our facility with no issue. A restriction we have in our facility are vehicle gates, some with badge access and some that are manual gates. There is a restriction set up to only allow routing through gates with badge access.
My goal is to have the badge access gates show up in the directions. The gates are a points that are added as a junction to the Network, they are set to connect at any vertex along the edge feature (roads) and the edge feature is set to allow any vertex. However when the Route goes through the gate it does not say the gate name it passes through. The gate junction is set up to support directions and the base name field is filled out.
From my research it seemed the best course for me to take was to add the Gates as a Spatial landmark so when the route passes by the gate it would input a predetermined text block into the directions. However it does not do that, the shapefile I use for the spatial landmarks is exactly that same as the junctions shape file, so it does intersect with the edge feature (roads). I have not tested it with a shapefile that does not intersect with the edge feature (roads)
I followed pretty much everything outlined in this help page: https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/3.0/help/analysis/networks/how-to-create-a-usable-network-dataset.htm
Does anyone know what I should do differently to allow the gates name to show up in the directions?
