dynamic segmentation
A GIS function for modeling linear features in highway applications such as accident analysis and pavement management.
Dynamic Segmentation is a two-step process performed on a spatial data set comprised of linear features. First, a route system is created by associating adjacent line segments into one or more groups that have a definite linear sequence.
dynamic segmentation
The process of computing the locations of events on linear features at run time based on event tables for which distance measures are available.
Dynamic segmentation was also the only alternative for representing more than one event along a linear feature.

In linear referencing, the result of the dynamic segmentation process. A route event source serves an event table as a dynamic feature class. Every row in the table is served as a feature whose shape is calculated when needed.
event source This is a name assigned by the user to reference a DBMS table containing event data for use with the dynamic segmentation commands. This is similar to the relate name. See also relate.
is designed to integrate with popular GIS software for the direct spatial query and map display of assets, activities, and/or events associated with the network through the LRMs. The Exor Network Manager database supports dynamic segmentation, ...
The latter should be accompanied by "user beware" statements as necessary (e.g. transforming distances associated with dynamic segmentation in BC Albers will lead to errors in another projection; or areas associated with UTM are in error).
DXF files are ASCII records of all objects in a drawing file. DXF is used by GIS systems for exchanging map files. dynamic segmentation Points along a line that vary in value, e.g. pavement thickness along a road centerline.
