ArcGIS Data Reviewer checks

Available with Data Reviewer license.

Checks are tools that allow you to evaluate your data based on specific conditions. Some checks allow you to search for conditions, such as polygon slivers or cutbacks, while other checks allow you to search for features that have spatial relationships with each other. For example, you can find buildings that have been mistakenly placed on water features.

The following tables describe the Data Reviewer checks that support constraint and validation workflows:

Attribute checks

Check name	Description	Workflow
Domain	Finds attribute values that do not comply with coded value or range domains that are associated with an attribute field	Validation
Query Attributes	Finds records based on a WHERE clause run against row attributes	Validation
Subtype	Finds features with improper or null subtype values	Validation
Table to Table Attribute	Finds features or rows that contain attribute values that meet a relationship you define to values in another feature class or stand-alone table	Validation

Event checks

Check name	Description	Workflow
Event on Event	Finds linear referenced events that overlay other events based on a relationship you define	Validation
Invalid Events	Finds linear referenced events that do not have an associated route, contain invalid measure values, or have gaps or overlaps within the same route or across multiple routes	Validation

Feature integrity checks

Check name	Description	Workflow
Cutbacks	Finds segments where the angle between segments in a polygon or polyline is below a specified minimum value	Constraint
		Validation
Duplicate Vertex	Finds vertices from the same feature that are collocated or within a specified tolerance of one another	Constraint
		Validation
Evaluate Part Count	Finds features with a part count that is within a specified value	Constraint
		Validation
Evaluate Vertex Count	Finds polyline or polygon features that have a vertex count within a specified tolerance	Constraint
		Validation
Invalid Geometry	Finds features that contain invalid geometry	Validation
Nonlinear Segment	Finds polyline or polygon features that contain nonlinear segments such as arcs and curves	Validation

Polygon checks

Check name	Description	Workflow
Evaluate Polygon Perimeter and Area	Finds parts, segments, or entire polygons for features whose area or perimeter is within a specified range	Constraint
		Validation
Unnecessary Polygon Boundaries	Finds polygon features that share a common boundary and contain identical attribute values	Validation

Polyline checks

Check name	Description	Workflow
Evaluate Polyline Length	Finds polyline segments, parts, or features that have a line length within a specified tolerance	Constraint
		Validation
Monotonicity	Searches z-enabled or m-enabled polylines for vertices that are not strictly increasing or decreasing in value or are trending based on specified conditions	Constraint
		Validation
Polyline or Path Closes on Self	Finds paths or lines in polyline features that close themselves	Constraint
		Validation
Unnecessary Nodes	Finds polyline features that share a node and have matching attribute values	Validation

Spatial relationship checks

Check name	Description	Workflow
Duplicate Feature	Finds features of the same geometry type that are collocated and share attributes	Validation
Feature on Feature	Finds features that have a specific relationship, either from two feature layers or within the same feature layer	Constraint
		Validation
