Crear un polígono complejo a partir de la capa de puntos utilizando solo puntos de límite en ArcGIS Desktop

Necesito convertir una capa de puntos en un polígono, utilizando los puntos de límite de una cuadrícula compleja para definir los bordes del polígono.

Necesito incorporar esto en un marco de ModelBuilder en ArcGIS Desktop 10.3. Será necesario iterar el proceso (si es posible) debido a la gran cantidad de datos entrantes.

La capa de puntos está cuadriculada sobre un segmento de río, y necesito determinar los puntos de límite de los ríos y conectarlos para crear una capa de polígono del segmento de río.

El casco convexo no parece funcionar con la forma en que los ríos serpentean, necesito un límite limpio y apretado, no una contención como lo hace el casco convexo. Tengo capas solo para los puntos límite, pero no sé cómo conectarlas para llegar a un polígono.

Este hilo de GeoNet tuvo una larga discusión sobre el tema de los cascos convexos / cóncavos y muchas imágenes, enlaces y archivos adjuntos. Desafortunadamente, todas las imágenes, enlaces y archivos adjuntos se rompieron cuando el viejo foro y galería de Esri fue reemplazado por Geonet o eliminado.

Aquí están mis variaciones en el guión del Estimador de casco cóncavo que Bruce Harold de Esri creó. Creo que mi versión hizo varias mejoras.

No veo una forma de adjuntar el archivo comprimido de la herramienta aquí, así que he creado una publicación de blog con la versión comprimida de la herramienta aquí . Aquí hay una foto de la interfaz.

Aquí hay una imagen de algunas salidas (no recuerdo el factor k para esta imagen). k indica el número mínimo de puntos vecinos buscados para cada punto límite del casco. Los valores más altos de k dan como resultado límites más suaves. Cuando los datos de entrada están dispersos de manera desigual, ningún valor de k puede dar como resultado un casco cerrado.

Aquí está el código:

# Author: ESRI
# Date:   August 2010
#
# Purpose: This script creates a concave hull polygon FC using a k-nearest neighbours approach
#          modified from that of A. Moreira and M. Y. Santos, University of Minho, Portugal.
#          It identifies a polygon which is the region occupied by an arbitrary set of points
#          by considering at least "k" nearest neighbouring points (30 >= k >= 3) amongst the set.
#          If input points have uneven spatial density then any value of k may not connect the
#          point "clusters" and outliers will be excluded from the polygon.  Pre-processing into
#          selection sets identifying clusters will allow finding hulls one at a time.  If the
#          found polygon does not enclose the input point features, higher values of k are tried
#          up to a maximum of 30.
#
# Author: Richard Fairhurst
# Date:   February 2012
#
# Update:  The script was enhanced by Richard Fairhurst to include an optional case field parameter.
#          The case field can be any numeric, string, or date field in the point input and is
#          used to sort the points and generate separate polygons for each case value in the output.
#          If the Case field is left blank the script will work on all input points as it did
#          in the original script.
#
#          A field named "POINT_CNT" is added to the output feature(s) to indicate the number of
#          unique point locations used to create the output polygon(s).
#
#          A field named "ENCLOSED" is added to the output feature(s) to indicates if all of the
#          input points were enclosed by the output polygon(s). An ENCLOSED value of 1 means all
#          points were enclosed. When the ENCLOSED value is 0 and Area and Perimeter are greater
#          than 0, either all points are touching the hull boundary or one or more outlier points
#          have been excluded from the output hull. Use selection sets or preprocess input data
#          to find enclosing hulls. When a feature with an ENCLOSED value of 0 and Empty or Null
#          geometry is created (Area and Perimeter are either 0 or Null) insufficient input points
#          were provided to create an actual polygon.

Aquí hay imágenes que acabo de procesar en un conjunto de puntos de dirección para tres subdivisiones. A modo de comparación, se muestran las parcelas originales. El factor k inicial para esta ejecución de la herramienta se estableció en 3, pero la herramienta repitió cada punto establecido en al menos un factor k de 6 antes de crear cada polígono (se usó un factor k de 9 para uno de ellos). La herramienta creó la nueva clase de entidad de casco y los 3 cascos en menos de 35 segundos. La presencia de puntos distribuidos de manera regular que llenan el interior del casco realmente ayuda a crear un contorno de casco más preciso que simplemente usar el conjunto de puntos que deberían definir el contorno.
