Comprehensive Guide to Digitizing and Managing Spatial Data Using ArcEdit

This guide provides a detailed overview of processes involved in digitizing spatial data with ArcEdit. It covers associating attribute data with spatial data, organizing and managing coverages, and maintaining a structured working environment. Readers will learn how to create, edit, and save coverages, including defining digitizing environments and selecting features. Additional insights on housekeeping tasks, editing arc vertices, and handling dangling arcs are included. Ideal for professionals seeking to enhance their skills in spatial data management.

Presentation Transcript

  1. Digitizing with ArcEdit

  2. Associating attribute data with spatial data

  3. INFO directory/file

  4. Moving or copying coverages • In Arc: prompt • Arc: copy <old_cov> <new_cov> • Arc: copy p32 z:\p32 • Arc: kill <cover> all • Arc: kill p32 all • House-keeping • Arc: lc • Arc: describe <cover>

  5. Using ArcEdit • Define the working environment • Define the digitizing environment • Define the drawing environment • Define the coverage to be created • Define the coverage to be edited • Define the feature type to be edited • Select the features to be edited • Perform the edits • Save the edits

  6. Working environment • To retrieve/save coverages in a folder ArcEdit: &workspace c:\workspace • To retrieve/save coverages onto your zip disk ArcEdit: &workspace z:\

  7. Digitizing environment • Define the type of digitizer ArdEdit: digitizer sgmg3 com2:9600:7bit:even • Define where coordinates are from ArcEdit: coordinate digitizer ArcEdit: coordinate digitizer p32 ArcEdit: coordinate mouse

  8. Drawing environment • What to draw and how to draw ArcEdit: drawenv arc label tic node ArcEdit: draw ArcEdit: drawe arc label ids tic ids ArcEdit: draw ArcEdit: drawe node on ArcEdit: drawe node error

  9. Create a new coverage ArcEdit: create p32 Tic ID: ArcEdit: create p32 p25 Tic ID:

  10. Edit an existing coverage ArcEdit: edit p32 ArcEdit: edit p32 label ArcEdit: edit p32 arc ArcEdit: edit p32 node

  11. Setting feature types ArcEdit: editfeature arc ArcEdit: editf label ArcEdit: editf tic ArcEdit: editf node

  12. Selecting features ArcEdit: select ArcEdit: select many ArcEdit: select box ArcEdit: aselect many ArcEdit: aselect box

  13. Edits ArcEdit: add ArcEdit: move ArcEdit: delete ArcEdit: undelete

  14. Example ArcEdit: &workspace z:\ ArcEdit: digitizer sgmg3 com2:9600:7bit:even ArcEdit: coordinate digitizer ArcEdit: edit p101 ArcEdit: drawe arc label tic ids ArcEdit: draw ArcEdit: editf label ArcEdit: add …. ArcEdit: select box …. ArcEdit: move …. ArcEdit: editf arc ArcEdit: select many ArcEdit: delete ArcEdit: add ….. ArcEdit: drawe node error ArcEdit:

  15. Editing arc vertices ArcEdit: editf arc ArcEdit: select ArcEdit: vertex add ArcEdit: ve move ArcEdit: ve delete

  16. Editing dangling arcs ArcEdit: editf arc ArcEdit: select dangle ArcEdit: delete

  17. CLEAN and BUILD ArcEdit: clean ArcEdit: build Also in Arc: Arc: clean <in_cov> {out_cov} {dangle_distance} {fuzzy_Tolerance} {POLY|LINE} Arc: build <cover> {POINT|LINE|POLY}
