ArcGIS Pro SDK support for linear referencing?

Does the ArcGIS Pro SDK support linear referencing?  Specifically, some of the functionality exposed by the ArcObjects IMSegmentation interface.

Methods such as:

  • GetSubcurveBetweenMs (gets the geometry defined on a route between measure m1 and m2)
  • GetPointsAtMs (gets the points from a route where a specific measure occurs)
  • SetMsAsDistance (sets the measures on a route based on distances)

So far, the closest I've found has been the CIMMarkerPlacementAtMeasuredUnits, which "Represents marker placement at geometry M values."

Is there other support in the SDK , and I'm just looking in the wrong place?

If that's the case - where should I look?

Thank you - Dale

Think I found it. The IGeometryEngine interface in the ArcGIS.Core.Geometry namespace has a GetSubCurve() method. That ought to work.

Bet the others are in here, too.

Thanks all - Dale

If you search the ArcGIS Pro help, then select the SDK portion over on the left, you will get a number of hits from the SDK help...

check the help topic access as well, it is pretty good.  Just make sure you have the SDK portion of the help selected

Hi Dale,

GetSubCurve() is not exactly what you want, but you can probably make it work. We will add the three methods that you have listed above. I'm sure other people will make use of them too.

Thank you for the feedback.

Hi Annette -

 

From IMSegmentation, we'll need:

  • GetSubcurveBetweenMs 
  • GetPointsAtMs
  • SetMsAsDistance 
  • MMax
  • MMin
  • MMonotonic
  • SetAndInterpolateMsBetween

 

When you folks implement these - are you interpolating between the known coordinate/measures, or is there more complicated geometry going on? We will be using projected coordsys...

 

So...if you have a route points at measure 0 and 100, and you need coordinate at measure 50, are you taking the coords at the 0 and 100 points and interpolating? Or is it harder than that?

 

As a stopgap until yours are available, we are thinking about writing our own, is why I ask.

 

Thank you - Dale

We are interpolating between known coordinates/measures. Nothing harder than that.

Looks like we'll also need to implement GetNormalsAtM()

Hi Dale,

We have put all the requested methods into ArcGIS Pro 2.3 which will be released early 2019. 

Thanks again for the feedback.

Take care,

Hi Annette,

The IMSegmentation methods in ArcObjects were really helpful. I was disappointed that they weren't in the Pro API yet. I'm glad to hear that they will be in there soon. Looking forward!
