The properties of a model include "Label" and "Name" fields. The "Label" is used by BAGIS-P, ModelBuilder, and ArcCatalog to identify the model. The "Name" is used internally by BAGIS-P and ArcMap. The "Name" field is more restricted than the "Label" field and cannot contain any underscores or spaces. It is acceptable to use underscores in the "Label" field to make your model easier to identify.
The method name is inherited from the model label. Every method adds an output column to the parameter geodatabase. This column name is also inherited from the model so choose the model label with care. Long field names are difficult to read from within ArcMap. Field names in a geodatabase are limited to a maximum of 64 characters, thus model labels should also have this maximum length. Model labels exceeding 64 characters will be truncated by BAGIS-P.
Model toolboxes should be saved in the same location as Public method definitions. That is:
BAGIS\methods\*tbx
There are separate toolboxes for different categories of methods: The BAGIS-P system toolboxes include:
Bagis_generic_methods.tbx
Bagis_topographic_methods.tbx
Bagis_vegetation_methods.tbx
Bagis_landuse_methods.tbx
Bagis_soil_methods.tbx
Bagis_climate_methods.tbx
When a public method is created from a model in BAGIS-P, BAGIS-P will interrogate the model for a list of the input parameters and make them configurable by the using in BAGIS-P. Parameter names that are set internally by BAGIS-P start with a prefix of "sys". See this table for a list of BAGIS-P system parameters. Your custom model may use these parameters if appropriate.
