Densify

Densifies ( adds vertices to polyline at a user-specified tolerance ) the features of a polyline layer.

Inputs:

A polyline feature layer
Curves simplification method
- Using deviation distance
- Using deviation angle
Maximum segment length
Deviation value (Have no impact if there are no curve segments in the polylines - in most of the cases can be set to 0

Outputs:

New polyline feature class
- The output feature class will contain all the features of the original data set
- If the "Densify selected" option is used, only selected polylines will be densified, the rest will preserve their original shape.
- The attributes of the input data set are preserved.

Notes :

The Deviation value parameter has no impact if there are no curve segments in the polylines - in most of the cases can be set to 0 (default)
The function uses the standard ArcObjects methods which are fast and efficient.
For more information see Densify and DensifyByAngle methods in ArcObjects Developer Help.

Parameters

Expression	Explanation
<input_dataset>	A Polyline feature class or feature layer
<out_feature class>	A String - the full name of the output feature class (A feature class with the same full name should not exist)
<max_segment_length>	A Double representing the Maximum segment length
<deviation_value>	A Double representing the Deviation value (Has no impact if there are no curve segments in the polylines - in most of the cases can be set to 0)
