Bank Line Data Fields (InfoWorks)

River Lines can be used in the process of building a River Reach, Bridge or Inline Bank object in InfoWorks ICM or ICMLive Configuration Manager.

There are two types of line object available:

  • Cross Section Lines - used to build river sections of a River Reach or bridge sections of a Bridge
  • Bank Lines - used to update left and right bank profiles of the River Reach or the profile of an Inline Bank
Note: To view all data relating to this object, use the Object Properties Window. These data fields are read-only in ICMLive Operator Client. Network objects are configured in InfoWorks ICM Ultimate and ICMLive Configuration Manager. Please refer to the InfoWorks ICM help for more details.

This table describes all the bank line specific data used to define a bank line.

Fields that are common to the majority of objects can be found in the Common Fields topic.

Bank data

Bank line XYZ data is stored in the Bank data grid containing an entry for each vertex in the line.

Offset (cross chainage) values are automatically calculated from X and Y coordinates, but are not exported or imported when exporting to / importing from external files.
