Final
Quiz Solution
1.) In which of the following
situations would you need to map a network drive to \\depsuna\workspace?
a.) You received some GIS data on a
CD-ROM from a contractor and need to get it into ArcMap
c.) You exported a map to PDF and you
want to attach it to an email
2.) Which of the following are suitable folder names for GIS data
in \\depsuna\workspace?
c.) bigelow_lab_project
d.) baxter_state_park
3.) MEDEP uses Citrix software to connect to GIS. Which of
these statements about that setup are true?
b.) Users can connect to ArcMap from any
state office with WAN connections
4.) Which of the following ArcMap tools or buttons will change
the extent of the data frame?
c.) zoom in
d.) zoom out
5.) Which statement correctly represents the relationship between
features, layers, and data frames?
a.) data frames are made up of layers
which are made up of features
6.) What are the two ways you can activate a data frame?
a.) Right-click it in the Table of
Contents and choose 'Activate'
b.) Click on the data frame in the
Layout View
7.) Which of the following are GIS feature types?
a.) points
b.) lines
d.) polygons
8.) In which folders under \\depsuna\workspace\data_layers would
you find the following GIS data?
a.)
soils geology
b.)
rivers hydrography
c.) census data demographics
d.) MEDEP
regions political
e.) MEDEP air monitoring
stations dep_monitoring
9.) What are the differences between a selection layer and a
layer created with a definition query?
A selection layer is a static snapshot of a selection. It will
not change if the data are updated. The user cannot add or remove
features from the selection in the selection layer. A definition
query is based on an attribute query. Every time the layer is
redrawn, the query is run again, so it is a 'live' subset of
data. If the data are updated, features can be added or removed
from the query automatically.
10.) A layer has 381 features and 3 fields. If you add 2
new fields to it, how many records will there be in the layer's
attribute table?
381 - there is always one
feature for every one
record. Adding fields just means you know more about each
feature/record.
11.) What are the differences between automated labels and labels
created with the 'Draw' toolbar?
Those created with 'Draw' are scale-dependent (if created in the Data
View, that is), automated labels (by default) are not. Automated
labels cannot be moved by the user, 'Draw' labels can. Automated
labels cannot overlap.
12.) If you are required to make a map with scale 1 inch = 2000
feet, what would your scale be?
1:24,000
(multiply the feet by 12 so that both sides are in the same units
1 inch = 24,000 inches)
13.) True or False: When switching between data and layout
view, your scale should remain the same.
False - the scale in the layout view is based on the size of your
layout page, data view scale is based on looking at it on a 15" monitor.
14.) If you add a legend to your map and the layers you want are
not in the legend, what is wrong?
You had the wrong data frame activated.
