Nodes

A node represents a point that is attached to ends of an edge or an isolated point.

Nodes are integral to the snapping process and, in the case of the 'Edge Split Edges' snapping type, a new node can be created. For more information about snapping, please refer to Snapping.

Note: Nodes are represented in the system datastore as sys:node and have an ID and point geometry.

A node can use the following references:

Reference	Description
sys:edge_to_node	A sys:edge and a sys:node are related by sys:node_to_edge if the node is at the start or end of the edge.
sys:face_to_node	A sys:face and sys:node are related by the reference if the node is isolated and contained by the face.
sys:point_to_node	A feature and sys:node are related by the reference when a node represents the feature in the topology.
