Quality controlling your data
RivEX requires your river network to be topologically correct for it to successfully process. Various errors can occur when a network is created and/or updated.
RivEX provides a set of quality controls which you can run on your network. The output of a quality control is a dBase or text file identifying the polylines which failed the quality control. It is then up to you, the user, to correct your data.
•
Zero (null) length polylines
•
Self-intersecting polylines
•
Small polylines composed of two vertices
•
Double digitised polylines
•
