This section outlines a typical workflow in Networks Editor, demonstrating how individual features are used together to create, edit, and share data.

Example of a Networks Editor Workflow

1.Create a version or switch to an existing version so that the changes are not made immediately in the original database, but are only incorporated into it after validation.
 

2.Edit Layers and Import survey points or construct auxiliary points.

3.Create and edit features:

•Create Feature

oCreate Multilines

oCreate a Route/Trench

oCreate Annotations

•Edit Features

oEdit Attributes

oEdit Geometry

oSplit/Merge Features

oEdit Associations

oEdit Cross Sections

oEdit Relationships

oConnecting Terminals

oChange multiple lines

4.Check topology to eliminate any existing errors (dirty areas).

5.Update subnetworks so that the subnetwork geometry and statistical attributes are up-to-date again after changes to the assets and topology.

6.Write back a clean version with the changes made to the original database (default version).

7.Share Information with customers, colleagues, and partners.
