WMS:Cleaning

The Clean command in the Feature Objects menu is used to clean up feature object data. Specifically, it prompts for a snapping tolerance and minimum dangling arc length, and then uses these parameters to do the following:

• A check is made to see if any nodes are within tolerance of other nodes. If so, the nodes are snapped together.

• A check is made to see if any arcs intersect. If so a node is created at the intersection and the arcs are split.

• A check is made for dangling arcs (arcs with one end not connected to another arc) with a minimum length. If any are found they are deleted.

All objects of the active coverage will be cleaned.

Alternatively, a check is made to see if any arcs, vertices, nodes, or points are selected in the active coverage. If any intersecting arcs are selected, you have the option of intersecting only the selected arcs. If any points, nodes, or vertices are selected, you snap the selected points, nodes, and vertices to a snapping point that is selected after the Clean Options dialog is closed.
