Kan een individuele wijk worden geëxtraheerd uit een shapefile?

Question

<\/HEAD>Hallo! Ik ben vrij nieuw in GIS en ben nog mijn weg aan het vinden. Ik probeer de intersect-tool te gebruiken om de kruising tussen twee feature-lagen te vinden, maar ik wil graag de kruising van één wijk met zijn overlappende stroomgebied in kaart brengen. De originele shapefile bevat afgebakende counties en ik wil er één uit de originele shapefile extraheren om de intersect-tool op te gebruiken. Elke county is een polygoon en heeft een GlobalID.<\/P> <\/P> Kan iemand mij hiermee helpen? <\/P><\/DIV><\/BODY><\/HTML>

Hello Jamie!

Welcome to the wonderful world of GIS!  So it sounds like you would like to export a feature class containing only one specific county polygon from the greater county polygon layer.  I'll outline this workflow as it pertains to ArcGIS Pro although the workflow is essentially the same within ArcMap.

In order to export a single county polygon, you would first want to do a select by attributes on your county polygon layer.  You can find information about how to select by attributes at the URL below. You will want to open the Select Layer by Attribute pane first, this can be done by clicking the Map tab, going to the Selection group and clicking Select by Attributes.  Next you will want to set the selection type to New Selection.  Finally you will want to create a clause.  In your case, this will look something like Where County_Name is equal to "_____".  The blank space there would then be filled with the desired county.  You mentioned that the counties have global ID's so you could also do something like Where Global_ID is equal to "____".  After authoring the clause, run the tool.

This will select the desired county.  Next, right click the counties layer in the Contents pane, go to Data, and Export Features.  This will open the Feature Class to Feature Class tool.  Simply specify an output name and location and your golden!

Hopefully this helps you out!
