Point Intersection

Creates a point feature class with the intersection points of two polyline layers or a polyline layer and the boundaries of the polygons from a polygon layer.

Inputs:

A polyline layer
A polyline or a polygon layer

Outputs:

A point layer - a point in each intersection between polylines from different layers .

Notes:

The two layers should have spatial references with the same Geographic Coordinate Systems
If you need a point intersection of the boundaries of two polygon layers, convert one of the layers to polyline first.

Sources: A polygon and a polyline datasets

Parameters

Expression	Explanation
Function Name	PointIntersection
<input dataset>	A String representing the input layer. Must be of Polyline type.
<reference dataset>	A String representing the reference layer. Must be of Polyline or Polygon type
<output dataset>	A String - the full name of the output layer.
{TransferSourceAtt}	A Boolean indicating whether the attributes of the source layer to be transferred to the resulting points.

Running the function

ETGWPath used in the table below is the full path to ETGWRun.exe (E.G. "C:\Program Files\ETSpatial Techniques\ETGeo Wizards\ETGWRun.exe")

Language	Syntax
Python	subprocess.call([ETGWPath, "PointIntersection", "input dataset", "reference dataset", "output dataset", "TransferSourceAtt"])
.NET using ETGWRun.exe	StartInfo.FileName = ETGWPath StartInfo.Arguments = "PointIntersection" "input dataset" "reference dataset" "output dataset" "TransferSourceAtt"
.NET using ETGWOutX.dll	PointIntersection(input dataset,reference dataset, output dataset, TransferSourceAtt)
ArcPy	arcpy.PointIntersection(input dataset, reference dataset, output dataset, "TransferSourceAtt")

Notes:

<> - required parameter
{} - optional parameter
See examples for Python , .NET or ArcPy
The argument separator for StartInfo.Arguments is space. If a string might contain a space, you need to double quote it.
