III. c. i. Create an intersection between the easement and parcels
Estimated time:
1 minutes
In order to evaluate the cost of the easement, we must know where our path crosses property. This is determined by an intersection function in ArcGIS. We are going to intersect the easement buffer layer with the parcels layer.
In this exercise, you will:
- Explore ArcToolbox
- Implement Analysis Tools
- Create an intersection
