Summary
Appends parcels from an input parcel fabric to a target parcel fabric. If the input parcel fabric is a parcel fabric layer with selected polygons, the corresponding parcel features will be appended.
Usage
Parcel types in the input parcel fabric should match the parcel types in the target parcel fabric. The parcel type names, however, can be different.
The schema of the input parcel fabric should match the schema of the target parcel fabric. User-added attribute fields should exist on the same parcel feature classes for both the input and target parcel fabric.
Duplicate parcel fabric records are not created. Record geometry in the target parcel fabric will be updated with the geometry of matching records from the input parcel fabric.
If the input parcel fabric layer has selected polygons, all corresponding parcel features and parcel records will be appended. This includes any connection lines that are connected to parcel points.
If the input parcel fabric has missing parcel lines or points, the parcel polygons will still be appended. Parcels can be built after data has been appended.
Parcel lines and points cannot be appended as stand-alone features using this tool. Use the Append tool to append parcel line or point features.
Duplicate parcel points are not created. Matching parcel points will be merged into a single points during the append process.
Syntax
AppendParcels(in_parcel_fabric, target_parcel_fabric)
| Parameter | Explanation | Data Type |
in_parcel_fabric | The input parcels that will be appended to the target parcel fabric. The input parcel fabric can be from a file geodatabase, an enterprise geodatabase or a feature service. | Parcel Layer |
target_parcel_fabric | The target parcel fabric to which the parcels will be appended. The target parcel fabric can be from a file geodatabase or an enterprise geodatabase. On an enterprise geodatabase, parcels are appended to the default version. | Parcel Layer |
Derived Output
| Name | Explanation | Data Type |
| updated_parcel_fabric | The updated parcel fabric. | Parcel Layer |
Code sample
The following Python window script demonstrates how to use the AppendParcels tool to append a parcel fabric layer (Parcels) with selected parcels to a target parcel fabric in immediate mode.
import arcpy
arcpy.parcel.AppendParcels('Parcels', "C:/Parcels/Database.gdb/County/TargetFabric")Environments
