This activity is used to create a segment that holds the attributes and their values for a specific part of a linear asset.
Two or more segments can overlap on the linear asset and there can be parts of the linear asset that are not covered by segments. If there is a specific part that is not being covered by a segment the attribute values for that particular part of the asset is defined by the attribute values on the linear asset itself. When creating a segment, the technical class attributes and their values will be inherited from the linear asset. If the segment have an own technical class, it is possible to choose between inheriting all attribute values or only attribute values that has an entry.
This can be performed in Segments sub menu in Linear Asset page.
A linear asset to which the segment will be connected to should exist.
A segment is created.
