Hi Everyone,

I am looking for a way to create new layers from the existing layer on the basis of fields.

I have a feature layer of "AdminBnd" having the three fields - 'city', 'village' & 'location'. I want to create three separate layer based on fields. The layer name should be combinations of base layer + field name, for example 

Layer1: AdminBndcity

Layer2: AdminBndvillage

Layer3: AdminBndlocation

please refer the snapshot of the layer

There isn't enough information here to know what you are seeking. Can you clarify and/or post a sample dataset?

What do the input features represent? What do you want the output features to represent?

Hi MapGrrl,

Thanks for the response.

As I mentioned above, I want to create new layers from the existing layer on the basis of fields. Scenario is given below.

1) I have a polygon layer having the three fields.

2) Automatically create layers on the basis of layer.

Hope the requirement is clear now. Please let me know if any info is needed.

Thanks & Regards,

Sunita

Sorry, this still is not helpful. It's not clear what is represented in your original data. Does each feature in the original data have a value for each admin field, or do some features only have a village OR city OR location? 

What should the new polygon features represent?

It would be really helpful to see at least a sample of the original data table, or a screenshot showing the values in the data. 

Or, are you trying to create data from scratch?

Also, just FYI, Esri India hosts a lot of these boundary layers, which can be used in almost any ArcGIS Software. Here's a link to their profile and items:
