Nodes

A node is a 0 dimensional point that represents the ends of Edges 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 please refer to Snapping.

     Note: Nodes are represented in the system Data Store 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.
