Append Parcels (Parcel Tools)

Summary

Appends parcels from an input parcel fabric to a target parcel fabric. If the input parcel fabric is a parcel fabric layer with selected polygons, the corresponding parcel features will be appended.

Usage

  • Parcel types in the input parcel fabric must match the parcel types in the target parcel fabric.

  • Attribute fields in the input parcel fabric that do not exist in the target parcel fabric will not be appended to the target parcel fabric. The schema of the input parcel fabric must match the schema of the target parcel fabric for user-added attribute fields to be appended to the target parcel fabric.

  • Duplicate parcel fabric records will not be created. Record geometry in the target parcel fabric will be updated with the geometry of matching records from the input parcel fabric. Record attributes in the target parcel fabric will be updated with record attributes from the input parcel fabric.

  • If the input parcel fabric layer has selected polygons, all corresponding parcel features and parcel records will be appended. This includes any connection lines that are connected to parcel points.

  • If the input parcel fabric has missing parcel lines or points, the parcel polygons will still be appended. Parcels can be built after data has been appended.

  • Parcel lines and points cannot be appended as stand-alone features using this tool. Use the Append tool to append parcel line or point features.

Parameters

Label Explanation Data type

Input Parcel Fabric

The input parcels that will be appended to the target parcel fabric. The input parcel fabric can be from a file, enterprise, or mobile geodatabase, or a feature service.

Parcel Layer

Target Parcel Fabric

The target parcel fabric to which the parcels will be appended. The target parcel fabric can be from a file, enterprise, or mobile geodatabase, or a feature service.

Parcel Layer

Replace Point Method

(Optional)

Specifies how coincident points between the input and target parcel fabric will be handled. Coincident points represent the same location and may exist as duplicates after the append is completed.

  • Keep coincident points—Coincident points in the input and target parcel fabric will be kept and not merged. This is the default option.

  • Keep input points—Coincident points in the input and target parcel fabric will be merged. The attributes of the points in the input parcel fabric will be preserved.

  • Keep target points—Coincident points in the input and target parcel fabric will be merged. The attributes of the points in the target parcel fabric will be preserved.
