Editing the Event Geodatabase in ArcMap

Description After the creation of the incident geodatabase, a GISS follows a general method of work steps to populate the GDB with point, line and polygon features. Those steps include creating, editing, attributing, and doing analysis (e.g., calculate acres). These are the main data components, in the general order of processing:

Fire Polygon ● Create and/or edit the fire polygon ● Add attributes ● Calculate fire polygon acres

Fireline ● Create from fire polygon ● Split and/or attribute

Division and Branch Breaks ● Create point features ● Rotate

Other point features ● Create, attribute ● Calculate coordinates

Other line features ● Create, attribute

This how-to document covers ArcMap tools used to create and edit point, line and polygon feature data.

Target Audience GIS Specialists

Objectives Detail the methods used to edit the event geodatabase feature classes in ArcMap.

Remove an island Remove an island by deleting the island’s vertices (use when the island is small and not very close to the fire polygon’s perimeter)

1. Using the Edit Tool from the Editor toolbar double click the fire polygon containing the island. (An Edit Vertices toolbar will appear and your cursor will change from the black Edit Tool to a white Modify Sketch Vertices tool.)

2. Using the Modify Sketch Vertices tool, select all the vertices that make up the island by stretching a box around the island. (If you could not select all of the island’s vertices due to the fire polygon vertices being nearby, then select a group of the island’s vertices.)

3. Press the delete key on your keyboard to delete the selected vertices. (Repeat for another group of vertices if you could not select all of them at once.)

4. Save your edits.

Remove an island using the Edit Sketch Properties window (use when the island is large or very close to the fire polygon’s perimeter)

1. Using the Edit Tool from the Editor toolbar double click the fire polygon containing the island. (An Edit Vertices toolbar will appear and your cursor will change from the black Edit Tool to a white Modify Sketch Vertices tool.)

2. Select the Edit Properties button from the Edit Vertices toolbar. An Edit Sketch Properties box will appear.

3. In the Edit Sketch Properties box, look for the “Part” that contains the vertices of the island. Confirm that you found the correct part by right clicking on the Part number and selecting Flash. If you have selected the correct Part, then the vertices of the island will flash.

4. Once you have found the correct Part, right click on the Part number and select Delete. 5. Save your edits.


11/15/2017

Add the perimeter of a spot fire to the fire polygon by digitizing or tracing 1. Double click on the fire polygon to show its vertices and bring up the Edit Vertices

toolbar. 2. Select the Continue Feature Tool from the Edit Vertices toolbar.

(Using the Continue Feature Tool will add the shape of the spot fire to the existing fire polygon feature, resulting in a multipart feature with a single record in the attribute table.)

3. Digitize the perimeter of the spot fire, double clicking or press F2 to finish the sketch. a. If you have a line or polygon feature, such as from a GPS unit, you can select the

Trace tool from the Editor toolbar (after having selected the Continue Feature Tool) and trace the line or polygon to add it to your fire polygon.

4. Save your edits.

Rotate point symbols (division breaks, branch breaks, spot fires) 1. First, create the point feature to be rotated. 2. Select the point to be rotated. 3. Open the Attributes window from the Editor toolbar. 4. Type the degrees of rotation into the Angle attribute field. (The rotation by angle option

is set up in the layer files, but if it needs to be set for a feature class, it is done in the Layer Properties dialog box. To do this go to the Symbology tab, click on the Advanced button and click on Rotation.)
