arcgis 10.1 - Planarize tool in ArcPy?



Is there a way to use the Planarize Tool (Editing tool) in a ArcPy script.


I want to create a script for a question I posted and with the help of the community resolved that problem. Please see the link:


Populate cross street name at intersections


I would like to automate this process but using the Planarize tool is a necessity in the process.



Answer



You can accomplish this function with the Feature to Line (Data Management) geoprocessing tool which will split lines when they intersect each other:


"Where input lines or polygon boundaries touch, cross, or overlap each other at locations other than their start and end vertices, they will be split at those intersections"
