# Street Data Processing Tools When you purchase commercial street data with the intent of using it in ArcGIS Network Analyst, you'll need to create a network dataset if one isn't already provided. Creating a good network dataset takes time and requires a fairly thorough understanding of the process. For this reason, we have tried to simplify the process for many ArcGIS users by writing a set of tools that automatically creates a network dataset from two popular street data products: HERE™ NAVSTREETS™ and TomTom® MultiNet®.
The tools process shapefile data from TomTom® MultiNet® or HERE™ NAVSTREETS™ into a file geodatabase network dataset. The tools import the street feature classes into the file geodatabase and add the appropriate fields to these feature classes for modeling overpasses/underpasses, one-way streets, travel times, hierarchy, and driving directions. They also create feature classes and tables for modeling turn restrictions and signpost guidance. The tools can also processes advanced logistics attributes from data vendors and model them as restrictions and attribute parameters in the network dataset. If historical traffic data, such as TomTom Speed Profiles® or HERE Traffic Patterns™, is also provided, these tools can carry over this information to the network dataset so you can generate the best routes based on a particular time and day of the week. The historical traffic data can be based on TMC codes or LINK_IDs.
Separate versions of the toolbox are provided for use in ArcMap and ArcGIS Pro. (Note that network datasets created using the ArcMap version of this tool can still be used in ArcGIS Pro. The tool must be run in ArcMap, but the resulting network is compatible with both products.)
Requirements for the ArcGIS Pro version of the tool:
Requirements for the ArcMap version of the tool:
Please see the README.md files in the for-ArcMap and for-ArcGIS-Pro folders for instructions specific to the tool you plan to use.
