8. Coordination of GIS through dissemination of data and data products, education and outreach, adoption of standards, and building partnerships and the IndianaMap Steps For Identifying Features The identify tool is the simplest way to retrieve attribute data about a feature on the map. Click the Identify button on the Tools toolbar. Move the mouse over the map and click on the feature to be identified. The Identify Results dialog will be displayed. In the left panel are all the features the identify tool found in the location clicked. Click on a feature in the left panel to display its associated attribute data in the right panel. By default, the identify tool identifies features on the visible map layers. This behavior can be changed by using the drop down list at the top of the Identify Result dialog.

10. Coordination of GIS through dissemination of data and data products, education and outreach, adoption of standards, and building partnerships and the IndianaMap Steps For Selecting Features This tool allows you to select features on the map by clicking a single point. Any features of the active layer that fall within the selection tolerance will be selected. Please refer to the Identifying Features section to change the selection tolerance. Click on the layer you want to select feature from on the legend. This will make the layer active. Click the Select By Point button on the Selection toolbar. Move the mouse over the map and click a single point. Features of the active layer that fall within the selection tolerance will be selected and drawn using the selection symbology.

15. Coordination of GIS through dissemination of data and data products, education and outreach, adoption of standards, and building partnerships and the IndianaMap Steps For Searching for a Feature This feature enables the user to query attribute data to select or deselect features by value. For example, there is a point based map layer called “Location- County Seats”. Each of these cities has an attribute field that represents a population total for the city. Using an attribute based selection it is possible to query all of the cities that have a population greater than 100,000. Click on the layer associated with the features to be selected on the legend. This will make the layer active. Click the Select By Attributes button on the Selection toolbar. The Select By Attributes dialog will be displayed. Select the type of query to perform. Build a filter by setting the Logical Operation (ignored for the first filter), Field, Predicate and Value. For the example above you might set the field to “POP” (population), the predicate to greater than (>) and the value to 100000. Click the Add Filter button. You may add as many filters as you wish. For the second or above filter the logical operation is used between filters. Once you have added all of your filters click the Execute button. The number of features selected will display at the bottom of the Select By Attributes dialog.

17. Coordination of GIS through dissemination of data and data products, education and outreach, adoption of standards, and building partnerships and the IndianaMap Steps For Saving A Project While working on any project it is advisable to save regularly to guard against data lost and for later retrieval. When saving as a NEW project it is necessary to provide a NEW name for the project file. It is important to note that a saved project file does not contain any map data. The project file contains references to map data, as well as other information, such as layer symbology. Projects are stored on the hard drive with an.epf extension. Click the File on the Main Menu and Click “Save As” button. Create a new name for your project file Periodically click the Save button on the Main toolbar to save your work.

Click on Buffer on the popup window appears. Select either all or selected features that will be used for the buffer. Click on the next button. There are now three options:  Single buffer at a specified distance This will create a buffer from each vertix at the specified map unit distance as defined by the user.  Single buffer at a distance specified by an attribute This will create a buffer from each vertix at the specified map unit distance defined by a table attribute.  Multiple concentric rings This will create multiple concentric rings from each point with user defined quantity of rings at a user defined map units radius. Changing the colors required for each of the rings is also possible from this form. Click on the next button.
