Selections, Joins and Relates

Module 3 of 7 · ArcGIS Pro Fundamentals · 3 lectures (1 h 10 min) · 7 lab walk-throughs (1 h 8 min)

Overview

In this module we will learn how and why to select data, which is one of the fundamental skills underlying most spatial analysis. Learning how to select data lets you separate your data into categories for comparison, such as examining nocturnal vs. diurnal wildlife behavior. Selecting lets you identifying sites that meet spatial constraints, such as protecting areas near roads and riparian areas.

Please view the lectures, then work through the lab exercises. If you want it, the original Powerpoint file is available below.

All the lab exercises are presented in the document Selections, Joins and Relates: Lecture Notes and Lab Exercises. Remember, the lab exercises are where you really learn the material, so take advantage of them! I'm here and excited to answer any questions you have, or help out if you get stuck on anything. Walk-through videos of all the lab exercises are on the lab exercise videos page.
