User:Jcreer/SMS Archived Workflow Templates

This page contains templates that are not longer in use in the SMS Workflows.

GIS Conversion

1. Convert shapefile to feature objects.
Select the GIS | Shapes → Feature Objects command. Use the GIS to Feature Objects Wizard to create feature objects on a map coverage.

2. Convert raster to 2D scatter points.
This process requires the active GIS data contain point layers. Right-click on the raster object and select the Convert to | 2D Scatter Points command.

3. Convert raster to smoothed raster.
Right-click on the raster object and select the Convert to | Smoothed Raster command.

4. Convert raster to trimmed raster.
This o Right-click on the GIS object and select the Convert to | Trim Raster command.

5. Convert raster to flood depths.
This process requires a water surface elevation dataset be available in the project. Right-click on the raster object and select the Convert to | Flood Depths command.

SMS GIS with ArcObjects Workflow

1. Enable ArcObjects®.
Switch to the GIS module. Select the Data | Enable ArcObjects command.

2. Import GIS data using ArcObjects®.
Select the Data | Add Data command. Use the Select Data dialog to locate and open the GIS files such as such as Shapefiles, MIF/MID files, LIDAR files, or raster files.

3. Add GIS properties.
Right-click on the GIS object and select the Join Table to Layer command. Use the Select Table to join to dialog to specify table information to add to the GIS object. If it appears, use the Join dialog to specify which attribute field in the GIS object will receive the table data.

4. Manage GIS layer properties.
Right-click on the GIS object and select the Properties command. Use the Layer Properties dialog to specify layer properties.

5. Convert ArcObjects®.

1. Convert to feature objects. Select and make active the map coverage that will receive the feature objects from the GIS object. Switch to the GIS module. Select the Mapping | ArcObjects → Feature Objects command. Use the GIS to Feature Objects Wizard to map to convert the ArcObjects® to the map coverage. 2. Convert to geodatabase. Select the Mapping | Feature Objects → Geodatabase command. Save the geodatabase file.

SMS Import Hydrologic Data Workflow

1. Select feature object that requires hydrologic data.
One method to create a scatter set is to import existing topographic data. Topographic data is often in a text file. Use the File Import Wizard to open the topographic data.

2. Open the attributes dialog.
One method to create a scatter set is to import existing topographic data. Topographic data is often in a text file. Use the File Import Wizard to open the topographic data.

3. Add or import hydrologic data.
One method to create a scatter set is to import existing topographic data. Topographic data is often in a text file. Use the File Import Wizard to open the topographic data.
