Trying to generate a map for my fire department using the same parameters as this attached map, however FireRunBook, isn't an exact match. I'd like to generate a street index with address points, and have an area map page, then the detailed map pages following. Any ideas on tool/perhaps is it not ArcGIS? Any guidance would be helpful.
I would look into MapLogic software which generates a street index quite easily. My organization still favors this software over ESRI software which does not currently generated the street indices (Someone can correct me if I'm wrong and explain how this can be done with ESRI software).
Hi Michael; The Fire Run Book does have a Street Index Tool but doesn't generate the output in the same format as Stefan's example. The Python script would need to be modified. You can check it out on the solutions page. Hope it helps. -Walt
Do you know how to access the Local Government toolbox? Is this an additional download that does not come with the standard ArcGIS Desktop install? If not, where on ESRI's website(s) would I download this toolbox?
Yes, the Create Street Index Report tool is part of the Local Government toolbox and is included in the Fire Run Book download. You'll find it under the Map Book toolset. You can download it from here: http://solutions.arcgis.com/local-government/help/fire-run-book/
It does a similar job as the VBA-based indexing tool I posted way back in the days before VBA was retired and data driven pages were on the scene. I'm glad Adam stepped up and created this version because a job change and lack of time prevented me from updating my original tool. Thanks, Adam!
