OpenFileGDB Creation Options

Source: R/gdb_opts.R
gdb_creation_opts.Rd

Construct a layer-level gdal_creation_opts() object for the OpenFileGDB driver. Typed arguments cover the common layer options; advanced coordinate-precision grid options (XORIGIN, XYSCALE, XYTOLERANCE, Z*/M*) may be supplied through ....

Usage

gdb_creation_opts(
  fid = NULL,
  geometry_name = NULL,
  geometry_nullable = NULL,
  configuration_keyword = NULL,
  target_arcgis_version = NULL,
  create_multipatch = NULL,
  create_shape_area_and_length_fields = NULL,
  time_in_utc = NULL,
  column_types = NULL,
  feature_dataset = NULL,
  layer_alias = NULL,
  documentation = NULL,
  ...,
  .set_defaults = FALSE
)

Arguments

fid

Value for FID (name of the OID column). GDAL default "OBJECTID".

geometry_name

Value for GEOMETRY_NAME. GDAL default "SHAPE".

geometry_nullable

Value for GEOMETRY_NULLABLE (logical -> "YES"/"NO"). GDAL default "YES".

configuration_keyword

Value for CONFIGURATION_KEYWORD. One of DEFAULTS/ MAX_FILE_SIZE_4GB/MAX_FILE_SIZE_256TB. GDAL default "DEFAULTS" (UTF-8 text, up to 1 TB).

target_arcgis_version

Value for TARGET_ARCGIS_VERSION (GDAL >= 3.9). One of ALL/ ARCGIS_PRO_3_2_OR_LATER (the latter required to create Integer64/Date/Time fields). GDAL default "ALL".

create_multipatch

Value for CREATE_MULTIPATCH (logical -> "YES"/"NO"); write MultiPolygon layers as MultiPatch.

create_shape_area_and_length_fields

Value for CREATE_SHAPE_AREA_AND_LENGTH_FIELDS (logical -> "YES"/"NO"); auto-populated Shape_Area/Shape_Length fields. GDAL default "NO".

time_in_utc

Value for TIME_IN_UTC (logical -> "YES"/"NO").

column_types

Value for COLUMN_TYPES ("field_name=fgdb_field_type,...") forcing FileGDB field types.

feature_dataset

Value for FEATURE_DATASET (FeatureDataset folder for the new layer; created if it does not exist).

layer_alias

Value for LAYER_ALIAS (layer-name alias).

documentation

Value for DOCUMENTATION (XML documentation string).

...

Additional NAME = value options passed through verbatim alongside the typed arguments. They are coerced and validated against the driver metadata in the same way, and take precedence over a typed argument that sets the same option.

.set_defaults

Logical. If TRUE, options left unset (NULL) are filled with the driver's documented GDAL metadata defaults (via the relevant gdal_vector_driver_*_opts_defaults()); user-supplied values always take precedence. Defaults to FALSE.

Value

A layer-level gdal_creation_opts() object for the OpenFileGDB driver.
