You can aggregate all currently active zones to one zone.
1. If required, set at least two zones active, which you want to aggregate to one zone, via
- the spatial selection (Setting network objects active/passive via the spatial selection) and/or
- filter criteria (Using filters to set network objects active or passive).
The selected zones are active.
2. In the Network window, click the Zones button.
3. Press F7.
The Aggregate zones window opens.
|
Tip: Alternatively, open the Aggregate zones window. To do so, right-click the Zones button and from the shortcut menu, choose Aggregate active zones. |
4. Select option All active zones.
5. Confirm with OK.
|
Note: If all zones are active, you must confirm a query with OK. |
If an assignment result exists, a query opens.
6. Confirm with Yes.
7. Confirm another query with Yes or Yes for all.
The Edit zone window opens.
8. Enter the desired data (Properties and options of zones).
|
Note: By default, the type of the aggregated zone is set to 0 and the distribution type for connectors to absolute. |
9. Confirm with OK.
|
Note: If you close the window with Cancel, your modifications will be discarded. |
The new aggregated zone is inserted.
|
Notes: The centroid of the new zone is automatically set to the geometric centroid of the centroids of the original zones. You can specify the zone boundary later (Managing boundaries of polygonal network objects). The demand data and the AddValues of the original zones are added up. All connecting nodes (nodes via which the zone is connected to the network) are transferred. |
