Identify the use and effects of scale on a map
large scale maps "Large Details on the map" The Geographic area covered is small More detail is shown on the map 1:100
Small Scale Maps "Small details on the map" Larger geographic area show less detail 1:1,000,000
Identify the steps necessary to label features
- Click the Feature Class in the Contents Pane
- Click Label Tab in Ribbon
- Select field
- Click Label
Visual Variables, Qualitative Data
Shape, Color, Size

• Web Maps or web Layers
data properties
Data Source > Type, path,Geometry and other visceral data about feature class
Extent > Where the feature class exists in the map frame
Spatial reference > Projected Coordinate (Web Mercator) and Geographic Coordinate (WGS 1984) systems
Domain, Resolution and tolerance
Identify basic editing workflows that are necessary to create or modify features
- Prepare to edit (Click List by editing in the contents pane)
- Choose the feature template
o Target Layer
o Symbology
o Default attribute values
o Construction Tools - Choose Construction Tool
- Create Feature
- Add Attribute data
- Save edits
Change Color/Size/Symbol on Vectors from Ribbon
- Appearance > Symbology
Quantile
Observations equal in each class, good for ordinal data
Which ArcGIS App would it be if they mention Realtime Data. And view data + Map?
Dashboard

ArcGIS Pro consists of the following files
Databases Folders Maps Styles Toolboxes Layouts
Accessing Metadata in ArcPro
- Right Click a layer in the Contents Pane
2. Select View Meta Data
Identify the correct procedures necessary to create a file geodatabase and a feature class with default settings
Right click a GDB and click New > Feature class Walk thru the naming, geometry type, etc.
Identify the steps necessary for adding data
From Living Atlas : Catalog > Portal
From Geodatabase : Expand GDB then Either right Click feature class and “Add to Map” or drag and drop
From Folder: Connect to folder then Either right click feature class and “Add to Map” or drag and drop
Add Data from Ribbon: Map Tab > Layer Group > Add Button
Given a scenario, choose the appropriate method to share content from
Map or Layer package > If data is going to be used for input analysis
Web Maps or Web Layers> Large set of workers with many devices
Map Series> If working on ArcPro on a LAN
Best Color Schemes for Diverging Data
Show cold/hot
Recall the purpose of item details, item descriptions, and metadata
- Avoid using datasets with incomplete metadata
- Domains > Required Picklists
- Subtypes > Autopopulated values from other attributes (Ex: Type: Residential Street then speed = 25
- Topology: Keeping it snapped
- Archiving Data so you can see it change over time
Web Map or Web Layer definition
Can be used on mobile devices or ArcGIS pro.
Can build Web Apps
Create a Choropleth Map
