==Network Data==
Network analysis requires detailed data representing the elements of the network and its properties.<ref>{{cite web |title=What is a network dataset? |url=https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/latest/help/analysis/networks/what-is-network-dataset-.htm |website=ArcGIS Pro Documentation |publisher=Esri}}</ref> The core of a network dataset is a [[Vector graphics|vector]] layer of polylines representing the paths of travel, either precise geographic routes or schematic diagrams, known as ''edges''. In addition, information is needed on the [[network topology]], representing the connections between the lines, thus enabling the transport from one line to another to be modeled. Typically, these connection points, or ''nodes'', are included as an additional dataset.<ref>{{cite web |title=Network elements |url=https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/latest/help/analysis/networks/network-elements.htm |website=ArcGIS Pro Documentation |publisher=Esri |access-date=17 March 2021}}</ref>
Both the edges and notes are attributed with properties related to the movement or flow:
