ArcGIS Pro- Create Network Dataset- Dataset Filtering Capability
Hello Pro Team,
We're currently working on a Park District wide initiative to improve wayfinding within 30 parks. As part of this initiative we're using our trails centerlines as the network dataset. Our trail centerlines dataset is robust and comprehensive with all the trails across our parks showing both public and internal trail centerlines. Our authoritative dataset lives in an enterprise database and participates in a core transportation feature dataset.
In the process of trying to build a Network Dataset from our trails centerline data we noticed that there's no way to be able to query this data in the tool directly from the database. We're looking for only our public trails to participate in this network.
Many workflows suggest making cuts/copies of the data to create the appropriate definition query, that defeats the purpose of an enterprise dataset.
In the Create Network Dataset GP tool we would like to see an option to create a definition query on the selected dataset(s) and build the network from that selection.
Please let us know if you would like any further explanation or if you have any questions.
Thanks for your consideration,
Amanda Huber
