3.2.2. Digitizing Pipe Points

3.2.2.1. General

TDH has no wizard to correctly build pipe_points (normal or feed).

3.2.2.2. Digitizing pipe_point_normal

• Make sure that the automatic snapping tool is activated for all layers.

• Select the vw_pipe_point_normal layer in that layer panel and then select the edit mode.

• In digitizing mode the cursor will automatically snap to the nearest object in the map canvas. When left clicking a point is created at the selected cursor position.

• This will make the vw_pipe_point_normal feature attributes window appear and you can start adding data:

Select the kind of the pipe_point_normal you want (preselected is ‘NULL’) in the dropdown list:

• armatures.valve_without_motor

• armatures.emptying

• armatures.venting

• armatures.shaped_piece.reduction

• armatures.shaped_piece.t_piece

• armatures.installations.condenser

• armatures.pipe_point.geometry_point

• armatures.pipe_point.change_of_material

• armatures.pipe_point.sleeve

Add other mandatory attributes. You can also add attributes in the other sections (Ground observations, Characteristics, Organisations, etc.).

• When finished, then click the OK button.

• Save the information of this layer by selecting the Floppy icon in the menu bar.

You can re-edit your point object selecting the edit mode and then click with the info cursor on the object you want to edit.

3.2.2.3. Digitizing pipe_point_feed

• Select the vw_pipe_point_feed layer in that layer panel and then select the edit mode.

• In digitizing mode the cursor will automatically snap to the nearest object in the map canvas. When left clicking a point is created at the selected cursor position.

• This will make the vw_pipe_point_feed feature attributes window appear and you can start adding data:

Select the kind of the pipe_point_feed you want (preselected is ‘NULL’) in the dropdown list:
