Topology Model • Based on the Oracle 10g topology model • Two Topology modes: • Session topology, built on-the-fly as needed • Persistent topology, topological primitives are created only once • Primitives (nodes, edges, faces) are store in the DGN • Each primitive can be associated with one or more features • Both modes are supported with or without Oracle • Shared editing is easier • Analysis uses high performance topological algorithms • Features involved in topology and split/merge rules are defined in the Geospatial Administrator
Topology Maintenance • Place features like any other XFM features • Topology graph is maintained while editing • Use shared editing commands to move common primitives, e.g. moving a lot corner moves all the parcels with it • Split/Merge polygon command • Line Cleaning tools • Find dangles, gaps, duplicates • From “spaghetti” Line Work • Shapefile • DGN • DWG • Oracle Geometry • other
