numeric rather than alphabetic. Use COMPARE_NUM=YES to enable.
ATTR_TO_DELETE - specifies the name of an attribute to delete from matching features. You can
include multiple instances of this attribute to delete multiple values. To remove the feature label rather
than an attribute, use <Feature Name> for the attribute name.
•
ATTR_TO_RENAME - specifies the name of an attribute to rename from matching features and what
to rename it to. You can include multiple instances of this attribute to rename multiple attributes. For
example, to rename the attribute, CTY to be COUNTY, add the parameter
ATTR_TO_RENAME="CTY=COUNTY" to your command.
•
ATTR_TO_COPY - specifies the name of an attribute to copy the value of an existing attribute or
label to. You can include multiple instances of this parameter to copy multiple attributes. For
example, to create a new attribute named DISP_LABEL from the feature label, use
ATTR_TO_COPY="DISP_LABEL=<Feature Name>" or to create a new attribute named DEPTH
from the value of an attribute named Z, use ATTR_TO_COPY="DEPTH=Z".
•
CASE_SENSITIVE - specifies whether or not text comparisons are case sensitive or not. Use
CASE_SENSITIVE=YES to enable, by default comparisons are not case sensitive.
•
DELETE_FEATURES - specifies whether or not to mark all matching features as deleted. Use
DELETE_FEATURES=YES to enable.
•
DELETE_DUPLICATES - specifies whether or not to mark matching features that are duplicates (i.e.
same coordinates, label, attributes, type, and style) as deleted. Use DELETE_DUPLICATES=YES to
enable. Note that this only removes duplicate features that are within the same layer. Duplicates in
different layers will not be deleted.
•
MARK_DUPLICATES - specifies whether or not to add a DUPLICATE=Y attribute to matching
features that are duplicates (i.e. same coordinates, label, attributes, type, and style). Use
MARK_DUPLICATES=YES to enable. Note that this only marks duplicate features that are within
the same layer. Duplicates in different layers will not be marked. All features in the duplicate set will
be marked with the DUPLICATE=Y attribute except the first one. All of the duplicates will also get a
DUP_ID attribute that uniquely identifies the group of duplicates.
•
IGNORE_ATTRS - specifies when deleting or marking duplicates that only the geometry of the
features should be considered and not any attribute values. Add IGNORE_ATTRS=YES to make the
attributes be ignored. You can require some particular attributes to be equal using the
DUPLICATE_ATTR parameter.
•
DUPLICATE_ATTR - specifies the name of an attribute to that must have the same value in both
features being compared when looking for duplicates. You can include multiple instances of this
attribute to require multiple attributes to be equal. Special attribute names, like <Feature Name>, are
recognized for the attribute name. For example to require the name and an attribute named ROAD_ID
to be equal, add DUPLICATE_ATTR="ROAD_ID" and DUPLICATE_ATTR="<Feature Name>" to
your command. This would only be used in conjunction with IGNORE_ATTRS=YES otherwise all
attributes are required to be equal.
•
COORD_OFFSET - specifies the offset to apply to any coordinates for the features that match the
specified criteria. The offset should be in the units of the layer the features are being matched from.
The offset should be specified as a comma-delimited list of the X and Y offsets, such as
COORD_OFFSET="100000.0,200000.0".
•
COORD_SCALE - specifies the scale factors to apply to any coordinates for the features that match
the specified criteria. Each coordinate will be multiplied by these scale factor. The scale factors
should be specified either as a single value (the most common scenario) or as separate scale factors
for the X and Y values, like COORD_SCALE=1.00005 for a single value, or
COORD_SCALE=1.0045,1.0052 for separate X and Y coordinate scales.
•
ROTATE_ANGLE - specifies the angle in degrees by which to rotate matching features by clockwise
around some point. The ROTATE_ABOUT parameter specifies what point the feature coordinates are
rotated about.
