I am using the parcel fabric and loading CAD data into a staging topology to check for errors as compared to the 6 topology rules.  Attached is example of error # 6  "Boundary Must Be Covered By (Polygon-Polyline)"  I am using a CAD drawing with a polygon and a polyline (See screen shot) and am running a geoprocessing script that creates a polyline feature class and a polygon feature class, then creates a topology and loads the respective polyline and polygon feature classes into the topology.  I validate the topology and I come up with "Must Not Intersect Or Touch Interior (Polyline)" line errors and "Must Not Intersect Or Touch Interior (Polyline)" point errors (See attached).  I am not getting what I was expecting to find and that was error #6.

1.“Must Not Self-Overlap (Polyline)”

2."Must Not Self-Intersect (Polyline)"

3. "Must Be Single Part (Polyline)"

4."Must Not Intersect Or Touch Interior (Polyline)"

5."Must Be Covered By Boundary Of (Polyline-Polygon)"

6."Boundary Must Be Covered By (Polygon-Polyline)"

any thoughts on how I could trigger this error to happen.  I ran it conventionally through arcmap and not the script that I created and I came up the slightly different results for the line errors though.

I appreciate the feedback

Thanks,

Dave

Hi Dave,

I would check the projections being used. It seems like the unexpected results could be the result of slightly different projections or spatial references.

Thanks,

Sam,

All the data is on the same projection.

Hi Dave,

Can you share the script you are running?

Thanks,

Sam
