Using ArcGIS Schematics extension, you created nice schematic diagrams that have required manual editing.
You now migrated your GIS network data into a utility network or trace network and recreated new network diagrams that are close to those you had built using ArcGIS Schematics excepted their layout.

We developed a couple of cool sample commands that should help you porting your schematic diagram’s layouts to your new network diagrams.

  • The 1st command allows you to export the geometry of each schematic feature present in your schematic diagrams to JSON files.
  • The 2nd one is to use to import those exported geometries onto the diagram features in your new network diagrams.

You can download a copy of these sample commands below.

Please be advised that these command source code files and binaries are provided as code samples without any code maintenance.

NOTE:  If you need to understand more about the differences between schematic diagrams and network diagrams and get guidance to help you in porting your Desktop schematic diagram configurations to Pro network diagrams, details are provided in Porting Desktop schematic diagrams to Pro network diagrams  ArcGIS blog.

@AnneYvonneBlin  Hi Anne Yvonne, Many years ago I worked with Rick Anderson regarding railroad schematics.  We are currently in the process of migrating to new servers, databases, and upgrading to ArcGIS pro.  I would like to use the tools in your post but don't seem able to download the zip files.  Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.  Regards, Ben Smith

Hello Ben

You should only have to click the 'Download attachment' button next to each zip/pdf file in the list above.

This doesn't work for you?

Thank you so much.  The .zip links appear as dead hyperlinks but the icons work without any issues.  Have a great day and thanks again!
