Submission Details

  • This is a Connect Assignment.
  • You will submit everything on Connect.
  • The deadline is 2:00 PM on November 19.

Select By Attributes Tool

You can find the Select By Attributes tool in the attribute table of a specific feature layer.

Note that you should click the tool button in the feature layer that you want to subset or select. Otherwise, you will need to manually adjust the Input Rows.

SQL Expression

After you interactively constructed the query, you can access the corresponding SQL expression by turning on the SQL mode.

Structured Query Language (SQL) is a language used to manage data in a relational database management system.

Buffer

The black geometries are buffered, resulting in the orange geometries.

The green lines represent equal distances.

Clip

The orange circle is clipped by the black circle.

The orange geometry is then modified.
