Import S-57 To Geodatabase (Maritime)

Available with ArcGIS Maritime license.

Summary

Imports an S-57 file into an ArcGIS Maritime geodatabase.

Usage

• A New Edition (EN) base file can be imported.

• Multiple Revision (ER) files, also known as updates, must be imported at the same time as the base file. Individual ER files cannot be imported at a later time.

• The Target Workspace parameter value must contain a Maritime schema.

  Tip:

  Choose the Maritime workspace .xml file to create a Maritime database based on the S-57 product you want to use. For example, NAUTICAL_ENC_TEMPLATE_GX_EXTCLSID.xml provides the schema for an ENC product. The default file location is <installation_location>\ArcGIS Maritime\Product Files\<version>\S-57, provided the Maritime product files are installed.

• It is recommended that you import to an edit version when using an enterprise geodatabase.

• The default file for the Product Configuration File parameter is the .xml file that corresponds to the product database to which you are importing. The file is located at <installation_location>\ArcGIS\Pro\Resources\Maritime\.

• This tool does not reproject data. Verify that the projection of the input base cell matches that of the target workspace.

Code sample

ImportS57ToGeodatabase example (stand-alone script)

The following code sample demonstrates how to import an S-57 file.

# Import arcpy module
import arcpy

# Tool variables
base_cell = r"C:\Data\Import\US1AK90M\US1AK90M.000"
target_workspace = r"C:\Data\Import\NIS_1.gdb"
update_cells = [r"C:\Data\Import\US1AK90M\US1AK90M.001", r"C:\Data\Import\US1AK90M\US1AK90M.002"]
product_config = r"C:\Data\Import\ENC_Product_custom.xml"
