Looking for a way to create new layers from existing layers by column attribute

[furry_ferret]

Hi all,

im looking for a way to create new layers from an existing layer via attributes stored in the table.

In the existing layer, i have a column with strahler numbers of a river network 1-6. I want to select each numbers from 1-6 and extract them as layers so i have 6 new layers strahler_1, strahler_2 and so on. By now i just selected by attribute and extracted them 1by1, but is there a way to create these 6 layers with only a few clicks?

thx

Probably the easiest method would be the Split by Attributes tool.

You just select an output workspace (geodatabase) and the field to group/split attributes by - 'Stahler'

Fantastic! The Layers get exported to the target folder and you just add them back to the map.

Thank you sir!
