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.

California State Park roads and trails. The data are stored in an ESRI geodatabase and employ subtypes, each with coded value domains. Subtypes are based on a road and trail classification similar to the US Census Bureau TIGER files. This layer currently includes 5 subtypes based on the RouteClass field: 0-Unknown, 5-Local Road, 6-State Park Road, 7-State Park Trail, 8-Other Agency Trail, and 9-Non-system Route. Each is a geodatabase subtype with it own field domains. See the Document "Data Model for Cal State Parks Road & Trail GIS Layers" for details.

The Blighted Property Dashboard displays the seven (7) types of blighted property 311 citizen service requests and associated statistics. The information presented in the left sidebar represents the number of open and in-progress 311 calls for each subtype of a blighted property 311 service request. By default, the "Property Needs to be Condemned or Torn Down" subtype is displayed in the map window. Users can turn on/off any of the other blighted property subtypes by opening the Contents pane. The data herein is collected by the City of Baton Rouge and Parish of East Baton Rouge, Louisiana and includes data dating to April 2012.The Blighted Property web map at https://ebrgis.maps.arcgis.com/apps/mapviewer/index.html?webmap=46f8fe2832ee44f494e5290c76c63d16 is the underlying basis for the dashboard.

See full Data Guide here.Connecticut Critical Habitats is a polygon feature-based layer with a resolution of +/- 10 meters that represents significant natural community types occurring in Connecticut. This layer is a subset of habitat-related vegetation associations, described in Connecticut's Natural Vegetation Classification, that were designated as key habitats for species of Greatest Conservation Need in the Comprehensive Wildlife Conservation Strategy. These habitats are known to host a number of rare species including highly specialized invertebrates with very specific habitat associations. Some key habitats are broken into subtypes based on natural variations in plant species dominance and/or vegetation structure. These differences are apparent in the subtype names. Connecticut Critical Habitats can serve to highlight ecologically significant areas and to target areas of species diversity.

This layer can be used to perform various spatial analyses that pertain to Critical Habitats, to aid in determining site management and conservation priorities, prioritizing field surveys, and to further document the distribution and abundance of State-listed and/or rare vertebrate and invertebrate species within the significant habitats. Use this layer appropriately with data maintaining similar resolution. Not intended for maps printed at a resolution greater or more detailed than 1:2000.

This data set comes from the National Institute of Forests (INAB) in Guatemala. Through various joint efforts and in coordination with the Inter-institutional Group for Forest Monitoring and the GIZ, INAB obtained 308 high resolution RapidEye (RE) images to cover the entire country. These images, with a spatial resolution of 5 meters multispectral, were used to detail 16 classes of forest, 21 subtypes of forest, and 16 subtypes of forest by density. For broadleaf, coniferous, and mixed forest, detailed densities (sparse and dense) were differentiated for the first time in Guatemala.Mangroves were identified at the species level thanks to the database of Project Mangrove, 2012 MARN-CATHALAC, which has registers of four species. For the purposes of this map, un-forested zones were simply designated “No Forest”."

Stormwater collection/conveyance point features in Fuquay-Varina (e.g. inlets and outlets, and stormwater manholes/junction boxes). Please note that many of the stormwater point features represent privately owned and maintained stormwater features, and these are essential for mapping and understanding the stormwater drainage network sub-systems at the neighborhood level. Please pay attention to the Subtype field to identify the different categories of public vs. private; inlet vs. outlet; and manhole types of stormwater features. Directionality (start vs. end vertices) of these line features reflects real world flow direction. The GIS data in the area of Downtown Fuquay-Varina has a lot of old and erroneous stormwater features. A project is currently underway to correct much of this inaccurate stormwater data. Please note that ALL public utility data layers can be downloaded in a single .mpkx (ArcGIS Pro map package file), updated every Friday evening. This .mpkx file can be opened directly with ArcGIS Pro version 3+. Alternatively, you can extract the file geodatabase within it by renaming the file ending .mpkx to .zip and treating it like a zip archive file, for use in any version of ArcGIS Pro or ArcMap software. You can also use QGIS, a powerful, free, and open-source GIS software.The Town of Fuquay-Varina creates, maintains, and serves out a variety of utility information to the public, including its Potable Water System, Sanitary Sewer System, and Stormwater Collection System features. This is the same utility data displayed in our public web map. This utility data includes some features designated as 'private' that are not owned or maintained by the Town, but may be helpful for modeling and other informational purposes.

This application is intended for informational purposes only and is not an operational product. The tool provides the capability to access, view and interact with satellite imagery, and shows the latest view of Earth as it appears from space.This website should not be used to support operational observation, forecasting, emergency, or disaster mitigation operations, either public or private. In addition, we do not provide weather forecasts on this site — that is the mission of the National Weather Service. Please contact them for any forecast questions or issues. Using the Maps​What does the Layering Options icon mean?The Layering Options widget provides a list of operational layers and their symbols, and allows you to turn individual layers on and off. The order in which layers appear in this widget corresponds to the layer order in the map. The top layer ‘checked’ will indicate what you are viewing in the map, and you may be unable to view the layers below.Layers with expansion arrows indicate that they contain sublayers or subtypes.Do these maps work on mobile devices and different browsers?Yes!Why are there black stripes / missing data on the map?NOAA Satellite Maps is for informational purposes only and is not an operational product; there are times when data is not available.Why are the North and South Poles dark?The raw satellite data used in these web map apps goes through several processing steps after it has been acquired from space. These steps translate the raw data into geospatial data and imagery projected onto a map. NOAA Satellite Maps uses the Mercator projection to portray the Earth's 3D surface in two dimensions. This Mercator projection does not include data at 80 degrees north and south latitude due to distortion, which is why the poles appear black in these maps. NOAA's polar satellites are a critical resource in acquiring operational data at the poles of the Earth and some of this imagery is available on our website (for example, here ).Why does the imagery load slowly?This map viewer does not load pre-generated web-ready graphics and animations like many satellite imagery apps you may be used to seeing. Instead, it downloads geospatial data from our data servers through a Map Service, and the app in your browser renders the imagery in real-time. Each pixel needs to be rendered and geolocated on the web map for it to load.How can I get the raw data and download the GIS World File for the images I choose?The geospatial data Map Service for the NOAA Satellite Maps GOES satellite imagery is located on our Satellite Maps ArcGIS REST Web Service ( available here ). We support open information sharing and integration through this RESTful Service, which can be used by a multitude of GIS software packages and web map applications (both open and licensed).Data is for display purposes only, and should not be used operationally.Are there any restrictions on using this imagery?NOAA supports an open data policy and we encourage publication of imagery from NOAA Satellite Maps; when doing so, please cite it as "NOAA" and also consider including a permalink (such as this one) to allow others to explore the imagery.For acknowledgment in scientific journals, please use:We acknowledge the use of imagery from the NOAA Satellite Maps application: LINKThis imagery is not copyrighted. You may use this material for educational or informational purposes, including photo collections, textbooks, public exhibits, computer graphical simulations and internet web pages. This general permission extends to personal web pages.About this satellite imageryWhat am I seeing in the Global Archive Map?In this map, you will see the whole Earth as captured each day by our polar satellites, based on our multi-year archive of data. This data is provided by NOAA’s polar orbiting satellites (NOAA-20 from June 2024 to April 10, 2025 and NOAA-21 from April 11, 2025 to today). The polar satellites circle the globe 14 times a day taking in one complete view of the Earth every 24 hours. This complete view is what is projected onto the flat map scene each morning. What is global true color imagery? The global ‘true color’ map displays land, water and clouds as they would appear to our eye from space, captured each day by NOAA-21.This ‘true color’ imagery is created using the VIIRS sensors onboard the NOAA-20 and NOAA-21 polar orbiting satellites. Although true-color images like this may appear to be photographs of Earth, they aren't. They are created by combining data from the three color bands on the VIIRS instrument sensitive to the red, green and blue (or RGB) wavelengths of light into one composite image. In addition, data from several other bands are often also included to cancel out or correct atmospheric interference that may blur parts of the image. Learn more about the VIIRS sensor here.About the satellitesWhat is the NOAA-20 satellite? Launched in November 2017, NOAA-20 is NOAA's newest polar-orbiting satellite, and the first of the Joint Polar Satellite System (JPSS) series, a collaborative effort between NOAA and NASA. As the backbone of the global satellite observing system, NOAA-20 circles the Earth from pole to pole and crosses the equator about 14 times daily, providing full global coverage twice daily - from 512 miles away. The satellite's instruments measure temperature, water vapor, ozone, precipitation, fire and volcanic eruptions, and can distinguish snow and ice cover under clouds. This data enables more accurate weather forecasting for the United States and the world.

Gravity Sewer Pipe Lines in Fuquay-Varina. These line features primarily represent gravity sewer mains. Directionality (start vs. end vertices) of these line features should reflect real world flow direction. The mapping of sewer service lines began recently -- those features are currently rather limited in this dataset. There are also some privately owned and maintained pipes that are mapped for modeling and informational purposes, which also started only recently, most often from as-built utility data from large development projects since 2015. Please pay attention to the Subtype field to identify the different categories of gravity sewer lines. Please note that ALL public utility data layers can be downloaded in a single .mpkx (ArcGIS Pro map package file), updated every Friday evening. This .mpkx file can be opened directly with ArcGIS Pro version 3+. Alternatively, you can extract the file geodatabase within it by renaming the file ending .mpkx to .zip and treating it like a zip archive file, for use in any version of ArcGIS Pro or ArcMap software.

Much like a biological artery, an arterial road carries a large volume of traffic between areas in urban centers.3 – Secondary Road (Collector) – A low- or moderate-capacity road that is below the interstate and major road levels of service. Secondary roads tend to lead traffic from local roads or sections of neighborhoods to activity areas with communities, major roads, or occasionally directly to expressways or freeways.4 – Local Roads – A road intended only for the traffic of local residents and visitors. "Frontage Road" and "Service Road" are under this classification.5 – Alley – A narrow road that runs between or behind buildings. Usually located along the back lot lines of properties.
