Hello Everyone,    I'm trying the to emulate the map in the attachments (Map1).  My workflow is the following:  1- I choose "Stereographic" Projected Coordinate System.  2- I created a copy from the projected coordinate system to modify it.    My question here is: how can I convert the location of Ankara (42 N 32 E) to meters so I can adjust the parameters accordingly? What are the values of "Central Meridian" and "Latitude of Origin" should I set to center the projection on Ankara city as in the attached map?          ... View more

Hi Everyone,  I have been struggling over the last few days to emulate an old American map for a city.

Arcgis Pro provides a feature called Delineate Built-Up Areas but I failed to merge my buildings into different block as shown in the original map in the attachments.  Second One: I tried to make the streets completely fit with the buildings so they do not intersect with each other but I could not find the tool suitable for this task.  It would be very much appreciated if any one can recommend solutions for these two problems. I attached screen shots from the original map and the one I'm trying to create. As shown in the attachments, I'm trying to make the multiple buildings in each block as a Built-Up are in a way that it's edges completely fit with the roads.   Regards,  ... View more
