TIME AWARE HCA-MCA CALCULATION (METHOD 2)

Time Aware HCA-MCA Calculation (Method 2)

Summary

Time Aware HCA-MCA Calculation (Method 2) calculates ‘time aware’ HCA-MCA ranges by copying the results of a prior HCA-MCA analysis into the Gas HCA Tool project geodatabase, and then dynamically segmenting the current output of the HCA-MCA Calculation (Method 2) tool with HCA-MCA ranges from the prior analysis, with the output time aware HCA-MCA range features segmented by determination date. HCA and MCA ranges from the prior analysis are persisted in the time aware features output from this tool; HCA and MCA segments from the current analysis are only persisted in the time aware output features to the extent they are not covered by prior HCA and MCA ranges (i.e., they are newly identified HCA/MCA ranges). An HCA range in the current analysis takes precedence over an MCA range from the prior analysis.

Usage

Input Current HCA-MCA Range Features – This tool uses as input the HCA Range features created by a current HCA-MCA analysis using the HCA-MCA Calculation (Method 2) tool. Unless otherwise specified, the tool defaults this parameter to the HCA_RANGE_M2 feature class in your selected Gas HCA Tool project geodatabase.
Input Previous HCA-MCA Range Features or Records – This tool uses as input the HCA Range features created by a previous HCA-MCA analysis performed using the HCA-MCA Calculation (Method 2) tool, or an equivalent tool. There is no default value for this parameter. You may use the HCA_RANGE_M2 feature class from a Gas HCA Tool project geodatabase created for a prior HCA-MCA analysis, or you may use existing HCA-MCA range features or records from your pipeline database. Your input previous HCA-MCA range features/records must contain the following attribution for the tool to run:
- - Previous HCA-MCA Range Centerline Identifier Field – A field that uniquely identifies the centerline feature on which each previous HCA-MCA range feature/record occurs. This field will be mapped to and compared with ORIGINAL_ROUTE_ID field in the centerline features stored in the Gas HCA Tool project geodatabase (in the CENTERLINE feature class, by default). When using a data source that conforms to the HCA_RANGE_M2 schema, this parameter defaults to the RouteID field.
  - Previous HCA-MCA Range Begin Measure Field – A field that defines the begin measure values of your previous HCA-MCA range features/records. When using a data source that conforms to the HCA_RANGE_M2 schema, this parameter defaults to the BeginMeasure field.
  - Previous HCA-MCA Range End Measure Field – A field that defines the end measure values of your previous HCA-MCA range features/records. When using a data source that conforms to the HCA_RANGE_M2 schema, this parameter defaults to the EndMeasure field.
  - Previous HCA-MCA Range Unique Identifier Field – A field that uniquely identifies each of your previous HCA-MCA range features/records. When using a data source that conforms to the HCA_RANGE_M2 schema, this parameter defaults to the EventID field.
  - Previous HCA-MCA Range Type Field – A field that defines the range type of your previous HCA-MCA range features/records. Acceptable values are ‘HCA’ and ‘MCA.’ When using a data source that conforms to the HCA_RANGE_M2 schema, this parameter defaults to the RangeType field.
  - Previous HCA-MCA Range Determination Date Field – A field that stores the determination (discovery) date of your previous HCA-MCA range features/records. When using a data source that conforms to the HCA_RANGE_M2 schema, this parameter defaults to the DeterminationDate field.
Output Time Aware HCA-MCA Range Features – This parameter defines the destination of the output time aware HCA-MCA range features. Unless otherwise specified, the default destination for the output time aware HCA-MCA range features is the HCA_RANGE_M2_TA feature class in your selected Gas HCA Tool project geodatabase.
Output Previous HCA-MCA Range Features – This parameter defines the output destination for your copied previous HCA-MCA range features. Unless otherwise specified, the default destination for the previous HCA-MCA range featuresis the HCA_RANGE_M2_H feature class in your selected Gas HCA Tool project geodatabase.
