Extracts the input features that shares the same spatial extent of the clip
What is Clipping
100
For a common point symbol, these are the three most commonly changed symbol properties.
What are color, size, outline?
100
This symbology classification choice separates objects and then changes their symbol color based on a value field.
What is categories?
100
This product is the most common output from a GIS.
What is a map?
100
This common GIS operation selects a subset of features based on its spatial relation to other features.
What is Select By Location?
200
This property of an attribute field restricts the number of characters that can be entered.
What is length?
200
This map element serves as a look-up table for symbol choices on the map.
What is a legend/key?
200
This symbol classification scheme gradually changes colors based on a value field.
What is graduated colors?
200
These six parts compose a geographic information system.
What is hardware, software, user/people, methods, data, network?
200
This tool takes all input feature classes and merges them together, creating a new output layer with the features split at their computing intersection.
What is Union tool?
300
This common GIS operation selects a subset of records based on values of specific attributes.
What is Select By Attributes?
300
This color should be used sparingly on a map, as it is considered to be the weakest color and is hard to detect.
What is yellow?
300
This visualization (often shown as a bar graph) shows how often a value is represented in a dataset.
What is a histogram?
300
This is the art and science of map making.
What is cartography?
300
This tool creates a new shapefile that shows an area of inclusion at a set distance from an object.
What is Buffer tool?
400
This ArcGIS function restricts the data that will be displayed from a GIS dataset without removing the information from the GIS dataset.
What is a definition query?
400
This type of file does not store any GIS data, rather, it saves symbology choices and relates it to a file that stores GIS data.
What is a layer file?
400
This classification scheme creates an equal width in each class.
What is equal interval?
400
This type of scale shows a small geographic area.
What is a large scale?
400
This tool removes portions of one set of features based on where it intersects with a second set of "cookie cutter" features.
What is Intersect or Clip tool?
500
These operators "glue" together complex selections of attributes. Examples of these operators are: AND, OR, NOT.
What are Boolean operators?
500
For a typical vector symbol, these two parts of the symbol can be assigned colors separately.
What is the fill and the outline?
500
This process converts total values to percentage values based on dividing the total being mapped in a class by the total population.
What is normalization?
500
This mathematical model (having two dimensions) serves as a basis for mapping the Earth.
What is an ellipsoid? or What is a coordinate system?
500
This tool aggregates features based on a specific attribute. The output is a new shapefile.
