Right click a connection to open it. Now select a poly-line table and right-click to import from it.

 

You should now specify which fields in your dataset hold each piece of information:

 

 

Allow loops should normally be left unchecked since loops are not allowed when doing routing.

- If unchecked and there are loop links in data: They will be reported as errors in network_report.txt

- If checked and there are loop links in data: They can be exported in one of the topology checking functions.

 

Finally set output folder, before:

 

Click the Execute-button

 

After you have imported a network, it gets automatically added to the list of networks.

 

If you started by cleaning the data, there should be no issues listed in the file "network_report.txt", which has been generated in the output folder.

 

 

Specific notes about importing from Folder connections

 

SHP files should have a PRJ file.

Some SHP files may require that you specfiy the codepage, if the autodetection isn't possible.

SHP files should be 2D ("PolyLine"), rather than 3D ("PolyLineZ / PolyLineM")
