Utility Trace Type
An enumeration of the various types of traces that may be performed with a utility network.

Types
A connected trace. Finds all features connected to a given set of starting points, ignoring traversability.
A downstream trace. For subnetworks with sources, downstream is defined as paths that do not lead to a source. For subnetworks with sinks, downstream is defined as paths that lead to a sink.
An isolation trace. The isolation trace requires that at least one UtilityTraceFilter barrier is set in the UtilityTraceConfiguration. Typically this filter identifies those features that isolate the section of network (e.g., valves).
Detects loops in the network. The loops trace finds areas of the network where flow direction is ambiguous where resource can flow in either direction. Loops are expected with mesh networks but usually indicate error conditions in radial networks.
Discovers the shortest path. This trace returns the shortest path based on cost or distance, which is calculated using a numeric network attribute such as shape length.
A subnetwork trace. Finds all features within the current subnetwork.
An upstream trace. For subnetworks with sources, upstream is defined as paths that lead to a source. For subnetworks with sinks, upstream is defined as paths that do not lead to a sink.
