Hello! I'm working with a polygon layer of fire regimes that has been converted from a raster. I'm trying to isolate the layer to an existing polygon (ranger district boundary). When I try to use select by location and then create layer from selection, using "within" the ranger district as the location, the selection only grabs about 2/3 of the fire regime layer. Any ideas why?
Additionally, I'm trying to get an acreage total for each regime within the ranger district. I've added a field "acres", run the calculate geometry, and then summarize tool to get some numbers. The combined numbers I'm getting for acreage are way bigger than the total acreage of the ranger district. Is this due to overlapping polygons?
Anyway, trying to figure out if this is the best way to go about getting this information, or if I need to go a different route. Thanks!
