Parallel geoprocessing in ArcGIS Desktop.

You will need to edit the Python script supplied to support concurrent geoprocessing of multiple processes. To make these edits you will need an understanding of how to script geoprocessing using Python. Be aware this is just an example of an approach to parallelization of geoprocessing, there may be no benefit in the approach in your particular environment or task. # Author: ESRI # Date: August 2009 # Purpose: This script demonstrates a methodology for parallel geoprocessing in ArcGIS Desktop. # The input is split into parts which are processed by separate subprocesses, # their outputs are appended into the final result. In this specific case, the # geoprocessing undertaken is address geocoding, but any feasible geoprocessing # can be done by simple modification of this script. # Look for the comment line "Begin code block for GP process of interest" try: import arcgisscripting, os, subprocess, sys, time, traceback gp ...
