Maintaining accurate data is a concern of all GIS users. The geodatabase offers you the ability to create geographic features that represent the real world. As the real world changes, you must update these features and their attributes. When creating or updating data, you can add behavior to your features and other objects to minimize the potential for errors.After completing this course, you will be able to:Define the two types of attribute domains and discuss how they differ.Create attribute domains and use them when editing data.Create subtypes and use them when editing data.Explain the difference between an attribute domain and a subtype.

The Geodatabase to Shapefile Warning Tool examines feature classes in input file geodatabases for characteristics and data that would be lost or altered if it were transformed into a shapefile. Checks include:
1) large files (feature classes with more than 255 fields or over 2GB), 2) field names longer than 10 characters
string fields longer than 254 characters, 3) date fields with time values 4) NULL values, 5) BLOB, guid, global id, and raster field types, 6) attribute domains or subtypes, and 7) annotation or topology

The results of this inspection are written to a text file ("warning_report_[geodatabase_name]") in the directory where the geodatabase is located. A section at the top provides a list of feature classes and information about the geodatabase as a whole. The report has a section for each valid feature class that returned a warning, with a summary of possible warnings and then more details about issues found.

The tool can process multiple file geodatabases at once. A separate text file report will be created for each geodatabase. The toolbox was created using ArcGIS Pro 3.7.11.
