¿Cómo simbolizo por categoría y cantidad?

Question

<\/HEAD>Tengo polígonos de propiedades protegidas en un área de 5 condados. Idealmente, debido a problemas de escala, me gustaría simbolizar estos mediante un solo punto en el centro de cada polígono; cuyo color corresponde a la categoría de propiedad (es decir: pública, privada, municipal, etc.) y cuyo tamaño corresponde a la superficie en acres (número de acres en la propiedad protegida). ¿Es esto posible? <\/P><\/BODY><\/HTML>

If you want to standardize across regions for example, I prefer to use a manual classification scheme, rather than on that is calculated from the statistical or distribution parameters (ie std dev, natural breaks, quantiles etc).  Also look at your ranges, 0-65 then 65-172 etc etc.  the sizes of the symbols is one thing, whether the increments makes sense to the observer is totally separate issue.

Thank you. That worked great for when the ownership categories are in different layers.

In an effort to try to standardize the acreage classification across the categories, I merged the layers. Is there a way to symbolize from one layer by both ownership category (color) and acreage (point size). When I try to use quantity by category in the merged layer it places graduated symbolized points by acreage in the center of polygons colored to symbolize the categories.

Is there a simpler way to do this? Should I just manually classify the acreage so its the same across each category?

Thanks for the help.

I think you're looking for the Multiple Attributes option. Value Field = ownership category, Variation by Symbol Size = acreage.
