I have a point file that has two fields with values that represent its neighboring point. We will call them Up for the point above it and down for the point below it for this.  For example Up field is 1205 and the down field is 1201. For the next point in that sequence the up field is 1201 and the down field is 991. For the next point the up is 991 and the down is 977. The down field always indicates correctly the next point in the sequence however the numbers are not sequential. Also to add to the problem, they are string values and they may include a letter such as 981a however there is always a matching value for that in the next point in the opposite field. The final issue is that sometimes the sequence stops which would represent the end of one line feature and a new sequence begins that would represent the beginning of a new line feature.  I would like to build a new field that can properly sequence these points so that I can convert this point file to a line file. Ideally I would like to do this in a way that I can incorporate it into a larger model. I really appreciate any help you can provide or other suggestions on how to approach the problem.

Thanks.

It might be possible to navigate through your point feature using a dictionary, where the value of the point (down) becomes the key for the next point (up).  From your sample data, the points starting and ending a line segment, do not match other points. That is, the starting point's up value does not have a match in the down column, and the ending point's down value does not have a match the up column.

In my test, I converted your shape file to a file geodatabase feature.  To the feature, I added fields for line segment and segment order.  The name for the line segment is the up value for the starting point. Here's a debug printout:

OID	UP	DOWN	LINE	ORDER

Here's the code I used:

import arcpy
import numpy as np

sourceFC = r'C:\Path\to\example.gdb\example'

# use OID@ token
sourceFieldsList = ["JOINT___UP", "JOINT___DO", "OID@"]
updateFields = ["OID@", "LineSeg", "SegOrder" ] # LineSeg is text, SegOrder is long int

valueDict = {r[0]:(r[1:]) for r in arcpy.da.SearchCursor(sourceFC, sourceFieldsList)}

up = [] # values of JOINT___UP (the up point list)
do = [] # values of JOINT___DO (the down point list)

for k in valueDict:
    dn, id = valueDict[k] # k = key = JOINT___UP, dn = JOINT___DO, id =  OID@, LineSeg, SegOrder
    up.append(k) # up point values
    do.append(dn) # down point values

# https://stackoverflow.com/questions/41125909
# determine line start : up point doesn't have matching value in down point list
lineStart = np.setdiff1d(up,do)
# determine line end : down point doesn't have matching value in up point list
lineEnd = np.setdiff1d(do,up)

updateDict = {}
for ln in lineStart:
    # print "New line: {}".format(ln)
    seg_order = 1
    # key, next point, oid, line_seg, seg_order
    # print "\t{}\t{}\t{}\t{}\t{}".format(ln, valueDict[ln][0],valueDict[ln][1], ln, seg_order)
    updateDict[valueDict[ln][1]] = (ln, valueDict[ln][0], ln, seg_order)
    pt_next = valueDict[ln][0]

    while True:
        next_pt = pt_next
        seg_order += 1
        # print "\t{}\t{}\t{}\t{}\t{}".format(next_pt, valueDict[next_pt][0],valueDict[next_pt][1], ln, seg_order)
        updateDict[valueDict[next_pt][1]] = (next_pt, valueDict[next_pt][0], ln, seg_order)
        pt_next = valueDict[next_pt][0]    
        if valueDict[next_pt][0] in lineEnd:
            break

print # for debugging
print "OID\tUP\tDOWN\tLINE\tSEGMENT"
for k in sorted(updateDict):
    print "{}\t{}\t{}\t{}\t{}".format( k, updateDict[k][0],updateDict[k][1],updateDict[k][2],updateDict[k][3])

with arcpy.da.UpdateCursor(sourceFC, updateFields) as cursor:
    for row in cursor:
        row[1] = updateDict[row[0]][2] # line segment (starting point's JOINT___UP value)
        row[2] = updateDict[row[0]][3] # segment order
        cursor.updateRow(row)‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

This will update the feature with a line segment name and a segment order.  From there you should be able to use the Points to Line tool.

PointsToLine_management (Input_Features, Output_Feature_Class, {Line_Field}, {Sort_Field}, {Close_Line})

Hope this helps.

UPDATE:

The while block (lines 35-42 above) should be replaced with the following code.  A line segment with only one point (because of a data entry error) would cause an error.

    while pt_next not in lineEnd:
        next_pt = pt_next
        seg_order += 1
        # print "\t{}\t{}\t{}\t{}\t{}".format(next_pt, valueDict[next_pt][0],valueDict[next_pt][1], ln, seg_order)
        updateDict[valueDict[next_pt][1]] = (next_pt, valueDict[next_pt][0], ln, seg_order)
        pt_next = valueDict[next_pt][0]‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

Additionally, because of some issues with data entry errors, it is possible to not have a dictionary key for some rows.  The code below (replacing lines 49-53 above) will print a warning message when a KeyError is encountered.

with arcpy.da.UpdateCursor(sourceFC, updateFields) as cursor:
    for row in cursor:
        try:
            row[1] = updateDict[row[0]][2] # line segment (starting point's JOINT___UP value)
            row[2] = updateDict[row[0]][3] # segment order
            cursor.updateRow(row)
        except KeyError:
            print "Unable to process row: {}".format(row[0])
            row[1] = 'ERROR'
            row[2] = -1
            cursor.updateRow(row)‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

A lot to digest for one paragraph!  Sometimes it helps to step back and state your requirement/need instead of asking for help with a solution because there might be a better overall approach.

Do you need to have the sequences renumbered, or is the main need to take the series of points and turn them into a line?

If you can share some examples of your data, that is most helpful, even if you make up some data that resembles the structure of your actual data.

Assuming your data looks like this (I added PRE_ORDER_ID and PRE_LINE_ID as columns indicating the desired final output):

import pandas as pd

data = [
    [30, 56, 1, 1],
    [78, 45, 5, 1],
    [45, 59, 6, 1],
    [59, 64, 7, 1],
    [12, 48, 3, 1],
    [56, 12, 2, 1],
    [48, 78, 4, 1],
    [82, 10, 3, 2],
    [84, 99, 5, 2],
    [79, 95, 1, 2],
    [95, 82, 2, 2],
    [10, 84, 4, 2],
]
df = pd.DataFrame(data, columns=['UP', 'DOWN', 'PRE_ORDER_ID', 'PRE_LINE_ID'])
df

...then you should be able to do something like this:

# determine if the point is a start, end, or neither
for index, row in df.iterrows():
    df.at[index,'START'] = row['UP'] not in df['DOWN'].values
    df.at[index,'END'] = row['DOWN'] not in df['UP'].values
    
counter = 0
line_counter = 1
pos_counter = 1
cur_index = 0
while counter < 100: # I'm paranoid about while loops, so change when you're comfortable
    df.at[cur_index,'LINE_ID'] = line_counter # record line number
    df.at[cur_index,'LINE_POS_ID'] = pos_counter # record position number
    if df.at[cur_index,'END']: # if it's an end point
        pos_counter = 0 # reset position counter
        line_counter += 1 # increment line counter
        cur_index = df.loc[df['START'] & df['LINE_ID'].isnull()].index[0] # set index to next available start point
    else:
        down_val = df.at[cur_index,'DOWN'] # find next point
        cur_index = df.loc[df['UP']==down_val].index[0] # set index
    pos_counter += 1
    counter +=1

...resulting in:

	UP	DOWN	PRE_ORDER_ID	PRE_LINE_ID	START	END	LINE_ID	LINE_POS_ID
0	30	56	1	1	True	False	1.0	1.0
1	78	45	5	1	False	False	1.0	5.0
2	45	59	6	1	False	False	1.0	6.0
3	59	64	7	1	False	True	1.0	7.0
4	12	48	3	1	False	False	1.0	3.0
5	56	12	2	1	False	False	1.0	2.0
6	48	78	4	1	False	False	1.0	4.0
7	82	10	3	2	False	False	2.0	3.0
8	84	99	5	2	False	True	2.0	5.0
9	79	95	1	2	True	False	2.0	1.0
10	95	82	2	2	False	False	2.0	2.0
11	10	84	4	2	False	False	2.0	4.0

...which you can use the last two columns to determine line ID, and position ID within the line.

Thank you Darren, I've uploaded an example file. Admittedly I'm having a little trouble running this. This is 100% due to my poor python skills. I'm using 2.7 in ArcMap 10.6.  I don't believe I am indexing the dataframe correctly for 'UP' and 'Down' (I modified them to match their names in the shapefile) however I very well could be completely wrong. I really appreciate your help with this.

Darren,

I was able to populate my array finally using arcpy to convert a Numpy Array to a pandas DataFrame like so:

import arcpy
input = "C:\Users\cstallings\Desktop\From_James\Import_Excel_to_Database\Example_points_for_sequence_from_two_fields.shp"
arr = arcpy.da.TableToNumPyArray(input, ('JOINT___UP', 'JOINT___DO'))
data = pd.DataFrame(arr)
df = pd.DataFrame(data, columns=['JOINT___UP', 'JOINT___DO',])

I'm sure this is not the proper way but it did populate the DataFrame.

after running your suggested code it appears that some values came back NaN that i believe should not for example:

>>> df
    JOINT___UP JOINT___DO  START    END  LINE_ID  LINE_POS_ID
0         1118       1113   True  False      1.0          1.0

I'm way over my head at the moment but I think I'm pretty close to getting the values needed and populating new attribute fields from them.

Thank you again for your help!

It looks like, for some reason, the start point for the last line segment (line 57: 

867        655        630  False  False

...did not get identified as a START. You can set it individually by: 

df.at[867,'START'] = True

...or try to figure out why the last line segment didn't get identified as a START.

Thank you for your help Darren,

I think I will have to figure out why some segments didn't get identified as a start or a stop as there are a few in there. Lines 2 and 3 have duplicate Line_POS ID's (they could possibly actually have duplicate Line_ID's causing multiple Line_POS_ID's) Of the 874 points in the sample file, I have 64 without a LINE_D or Line_POS_ID and 51 with duplicate Line_ID & LINE_POS_ID.

To assist in my understanding your question...

I am assuming the number in the up/down fields does not refer in any way to the OID. Could you explain the meaning of data such as L-60 and L-24A?  Would these be line start/stop?  Also, 630A and 666C?  Would these be points used in multiple lines?  Or would a line go L-60, 630A, 666C, 635, L-24A? And the next L-24A, 1083 ...etc?

Hi Randy,  The up and downs do not refer to an OID they are somewhat random however they are set based on an joint of a line as part of a separate asset management system. They are all unique for the line system so none of them overlap. The L and C do not correlate with a start and a stop unfortunately. The one thing that is consistent is that  for every up there is a matching down and vise versa with the exception of the start and end of a line segment. I hope that helps.

It might be possible to navigate through your point feature using a dictionary, where the value of the point (down) becomes the key for the next point (up).  From your sample data, the points starting and ending a line segment, do not match other points. That is, the starting point's up value does not have a match in the down column, and the ending point's down value does not have a match the up column.

In my test, I converted your shape file to a file geodatabase feature.  To the feature, I added fields for line segment and segment order.  The name for the line segment is the up value for the starting point. Here's a debug printout:

OID	UP	DOWN	LINE	ORDER

Here's the code I used:

import arcpy
import numpy as np

sourceFC = r'C:\Path\to\example.gdb\example'

# use OID@ token
sourceFieldsList = ["JOINT___UP", "JOINT___DO", "OID@"]
updateFields = ["OID@", "LineSeg", "SegOrder" ] # LineSeg is text, SegOrder is long int

valueDict = {r[0]:(r[1:]) for r in arcpy.da.SearchCursor(sourceFC, sourceFieldsList)}

up = [] # values of JOINT___UP (the up point list)
do = [] # values of JOINT___DO (the down point list)

for k in valueDict:
    dn, id = valueDict[k] # k = key = JOINT___UP, dn = JOINT___DO, id =  OID@, LineSeg, SegOrder
    up.append(k) # up point values
    do.append(dn) # down point values

# https://stackoverflow.com/questions/41125909
# determine line start : up point doesn't have matching value in down point list
lineStart = np.setdiff1d(up,do)
# determine line end : down point doesn't have matching value in up point list
lineEnd = np.setdiff1d(do,up)

updateDict = {}
for ln in lineStart:
    # print "New line: {}".format(ln)
    seg_order = 1
    # key, next point, oid, line_seg, seg_order
    # print "\t{}\t{}\t{}\t{}\t{}".format(ln, valueDict[ln][0],valueDict[ln][1], ln, seg_order)
    updateDict[valueDict[ln][1]] = (ln, valueDict[ln][0], ln, seg_order)
    pt_next = valueDict[ln][0]

    while True:
        next_pt = pt_next
        seg_order += 1
        # print "\t{}\t{}\t{}\t{}\t{}".format(next_pt, valueDict[next_pt][0],valueDict[next_pt][1], ln, seg_order)
        updateDict[valueDict[next_pt][1]] = (next_pt, valueDict[next_pt][0], ln, seg_order)
        pt_next = valueDict[next_pt][0]    
        if valueDict[next_pt][0] in lineEnd:
            break

print # for debugging
print "OID\tUP\tDOWN\tLINE\tSEGMENT"
for k in sorted(updateDict):
    print "{}\t{}\t{}\t{}\t{}".format( k, updateDict[k][0],updateDict[k][1],updateDict[k][2],updateDict[k][3])

with arcpy.da.UpdateCursor(sourceFC, updateFields) as cursor:
    for row in cursor:
        row[1] = updateDict[row[0]][2] # line segment (starting point's JOINT___UP value)
        row[2] = updateDict[row[0]][3] # segment order
        cursor.updateRow(row)‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

This will update the feature with a line segment name and a segment order.  From there you should be able to use the Points to Line tool.

PointsToLine_management (Input_Features, Output_Feature_Class, {Line_Field}, {Sort_Field}, {Close_Line})

Hope this helps.

UPDATE:

The while block (lines 35-42 above) should be replaced with the following code.  A line segment with only one point (because of a data entry error) would cause an error.

    while pt_next not in lineEnd:
        next_pt = pt_next
        seg_order += 1
        # print "\t{}\t{}\t{}\t{}\t{}".format(next_pt, valueDict[next_pt][0],valueDict[next_pt][1], ln, seg_order)
        updateDict[valueDict[next_pt][1]] = (next_pt, valueDict[next_pt][0], ln, seg_order)
        pt_next = valueDict[next_pt][0]‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

Additionally, because of some issues with data entry errors, it is possible to not have a dictionary key for some rows.  The code below (replacing lines 49-53 above) will print a warning message when a KeyError is encountered.

with arcpy.da.UpdateCursor(sourceFC, updateFields) as cursor:
    for row in cursor:
        try:
            row[1] = updateDict[row[0]][2] # line segment (starting point's JOINT___UP value)
            row[2] = updateDict[row[0]][3] # segment order
            cursor.updateRow(row)
        except KeyError:
            print "Unable to process row: {}".format(row[0])
            row[1] = 'ERROR'
            row[2] = -1
            cursor.updateRow(row)‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍
