the newly instantiated polyline object

append_extra_metadata(meta_dict)

Append a given dictionary of metadata to the existing metadata.

area()

Returns the area in the xy plane of a closed convex polygon.

Returns a mean x,y,z based on sampling polyline at regular intervals.

property citation_title

Citation block title equivalent to self.title.

closest_segment_and_distance_to_point_xy(p)

Returns the index of the closest segment to a point, and its distance, in the xy plane.

Parameters

p (pair or triple float) – the point

Returns

(int, float) where the int is the index of the line segment that the point is closest to; and the float is the distance of the point from that bounded segment, in the xy plane; units of measure are the crs xy units

classmethod convex_hull_from_closed_polyline(original, title, mode='crossing')

Returns a new closed convex polyline being the convex hull of an original closed polyline.

create_interpretation_and_feature(kind='horizon', name=None, interp_title_suffix=None, is_normal=True)

Creates xml and objects for a represented interpretaion and interpreted feature, if not already present.

create_xml(ext_uuid=None, add_as_part=True, add_relationships=True, title=None, originator=None)

Create xml for polyline and optionally adds as part to model.

Parameters

ext_uuid – the uuid of the hdf5 external part

denormalised_xy(norm_x, norm_y, mode='perimeter')

Returns a denormalised x,y pair being point norm_x,norm_y (in range 0..1) under mapping onto convex polygon.

Parameters

• norm_x (floats) – normalised values, each in range 0..1, identifying a location in a unit shape

• norm_y (floats) – normalised values, each in range 0..1, identifying a location in a unit shape

• mode (string) – ‘square’, ‘circle’, or ‘perimeter’; if square, norm_x and norm_y are coordinates within a unit square; if circle or perimeter, norm_x is the square of a radial fraction between the centre of the polygon and the perimeter; if mode is circle, norm_y is simply the polar coordinate bearing of the point relative to the polygon centre, with values 0..1 corresponding to 0..2pi radians; if mode is perimeter, norm_y is a fractional distance along the length of the closed polyline projected onto the xy plane

Returns

x, y (floats) –

the location of a point within the area outlined by the polyline, which must be closed

and project to a convex polygon in the xy plane

Notes

this method is the inverse of normalised_xy(), as long as a consistent mode is selected; each mode gives a reversible mapping but there are some variations in density which could introduce slightly different biases when working with stochastic locations; density distortion with square and circle modes tends to increase as the polygon shape becomes less square (and aligned) or circular respectively; perimeter mode is believed to yield least density distortion generally; for circle and perimeter modes, the normalised x value is treated as the square of the fractional distance to the boundary in order for a rectangular distribution of normalised values to map to an even density of denormalised locations

equidistant_points(n, in_xy=False)

Returns array of shape (n, 3) being points equally distributed along entire polyline.

extract_property_collection(refresh=False)

Returns a property collection for the polyline.

Parameters

refresh (bool, default False) – if True, the property collection is refreshed from the current state of the model; if False and the property collection has already been cached for the polyline, then the cached copy is used

Returns

a PropertyCollection holding those properties in the model where this polyline is the supporting representation

Notes

polyline properties may have indexable element of ‘nodes’ or ‘intervals’; for interval properties, the number of elements depends on whether the polyline is closed or not

first_line_intersection(x1, y1, x2, y2, half_segment=False)

Finds the first intersection of (half) bounded line x,y 1 to 2 with polyline.

Returns

segment number & x, y of first intersection of (half) bounded line x,y 1 to 2 with polyline, or None, None, None if no intersection found

Note

first primariliy refers to the ordering of segments in this polyline

classmethod for_regular_polygon(model, n, radius, centre_xyz, crs_uuid, title)

`Returns a closed polyline representing a regular polygon in xy plane.

Parameters

• model (Model) – the model for which the new polyline is intended

• n (int) – number of sides for the regular polygon

• radius (float) – distance from centre of polygon to vertices; units are crs xy unites

• centre_xyz (triple float) – the centre of the polygon

• crs_uuid (UUID) – the uuid of the crs for the centre point and the returned polyline

• title (str) – the citation title for the new polyline

Returns

a new closed Polyline representing a regular polygon in the xy plane

notee:

z values are all set to the z value of the centre point; one vertex will have an x value identical to the centre and a positive y offset (due north usually); this method does not write to hdf5 nor create xml for the new polyline

classmethod from_scaled_polyline(original, scaling, title=None, originator=None, extra_metadata=None)

Returns a scaled version of the original polyline.

Parameters

• original (Polyline) – the polyline from which the new polyline will be spawned

• scaling (float) – the factor by which the original will be scaled

• title (str, optional) – the citation title for the new polyline; inherited from original if None

• originator (str, optional) – the name of the person creating the polyline; inherited from original if None

• extra_metadata (dict, optional) – extra metadata for the new polyline; inherited from original if None

Returns

a new Polyline

Notes

the scaling factor is applied to vectors radiating from the balanced centre of the original polyline to its coordinates; a scaling of 1.0 will result in a copy of the original; if extra_metadata is not None, no extra metadata is inherited from original

classmethod from_trimmed_polyline(original, start_seg, end_seg, start_xyz=None, end_xyz=None, title=None, originator=None, extra_metadata=None)

Returns a trimmed version of the original polyline.

Parameters

• start_xyz (triple float, optional) – the new start point; if None, start of start_seg is used

• end_xyz (triple float, optional) – the new end point; if None, end of end_seg is used

• title (str, optional) – the citation title for the new polyline; inherited from original if None

• originator (str, optional) – the name of the person creating the polyline; inherited from original if None

• y (floats) – location of a point inside the polyline, which must be closed and project to a convex polygon in the xy plane

• mode (string) – which mapping algorithm to use, one of: ‘square’, ‘circle’, or ‘perimeter’

Returns
