Overview • Queries in feature classes • Attribute Query • Demonstration • Location Query • Demonstration • Query in Data driven Pages • Dynamic query • Demonstration • Questions
Queries in a feature class • Attribute Query • “A query that extracts data/features from a layer based on the value of its attribute data” • Query can be • Simple query • Compound query • Subquery
Simple Query • A query expression needs 3 components • Attribute Field Operator Field Attribute Value "AssessedAcres" >=0.19 • The result will show a set of selected features
Simple Query • Different types of operators can be used • Calculations can be done • "AssessedAcres" >=0.12*100 Or "Perimeter" >="Acres" *10
Compound Query • Multiple attribute and operators can be used to create compound query • Complex expressions can be created by using AND or OR "Perimeter" >=7361.83or"Acres" <=0.35
Subqueries • A subquery is a nested query • Supported just by geodatabase data sources only • Will NOT work with shapefiles "Entity" NOT IN (SELECT"ENTITY"FROMBLDTYPES2) • Demonstration
Location Query • A location query is based on their location relative to other features that meet certain conditions • Main types • Near • Intersect • Inside
Location Query • Three things needed for query • Layer that contains features you want to select • Location relationship that needs to be analyzed • Layer that contains related features • “Building types within 2000 ft of selected parcel” • Demonstration
Query in Data Driven Pages • Each layer can take advantage of the Data Driven Page setup • Layer has to have the page number from the index layer associated with the features • By setting the Page Definition by using page number, you can show or hide each feature on the map
