[GPlates-discuss] Troubles with network topologies

[Thomas Schaap]

Hi again,


Okay, of course as soon as I sent the email I worked it out. For those interested - the shapefile containing all the vertices already had the FeatureID field filled out with the same value for every vertex. This happened because I had derived this shapefile from another shapefile which had just the single feature ID assigned by GPlates in a different session. The network topology tool then got confused because every point I was drawing between had the same feature ID.


Basically I was working in circles and got lost along the way. Sorry for the email spam! Hope this prevents someone else from making the same mistake.


Cheers,

Tom

Subject: [GPlates-discuss] Troubles with network topologies


Hi Everyone,


I'm having issues creating network topologies in GPlates. I have previously created them by importing the vertices as a shapefile and then connecting the dots in GPlates. It was working perfectly until all of a sudden I can't seem to do it anymore. Now when I connect the dots and create the topological network feature, it doesn't appear on the screen and I get a warning on the console:


[Warning] Multiple features for feature-id =  "GPlates-aa8e83e0-b224-48ad-849c-0787fa89cca2"


I suspect I may have messed something up with the shapefiles as I was producing them in ArcGIS, but I'm not sure where I went wrong. Any advice?


Thanks,
Tom
