CORRECT ANSWERS 2026
What are Domains in ArcGIS Pro?
Used to constrain the valid values for a particular field. Attribute
domains allow you to set a list of options that help prevent errors being
introduced when users add or edit attribute values.
What are Subtypes in ArcGIS Pro?
Subset of features that share the same attributes. For example, a local
street subtype could be defined so that whenever this type of street is
added to the feature class, its speed limit attribute is automatically set
to 35 miles per hour.
What is Topology?
Connectedness, adjacency, and proximity between features. Topology
allows you to define the spatial relationships that you want protected in
your GIS data.
What are the purposes of Archiving versioned data?
Allows you to record and access changes to data. Archiving allows
temporal analytical capabilities by documenting data changes over
time.
Archiving can help answer the following questions:
,How have features changed shape over time, such as a wastewater
network being reworked to accommodate a city's continued growth?
How have attributes changed, such as zoning or parcel ownership?
You are creating a streets dataset. You want to constrain the Types
field to local roads, highways, and off-ramps. Which data behavior
would you use?
Domains
You are creating a map for a report on a controversial topic. The
report and map will face significant scrutiny. You have found a dataset
that supports the report's thesis. Based on the dataset's metadata
(shown in the following table), which course of action is most
appropriate?
Keep looking. This dataset may be a copy of a dataset from a more
reputable source, such as a university.
Which three statements describe common editing tasks with spatial
data?
Choose three.
Modify an existing feature.
Convert features to raster.
Create a new feature.
Delete a feature.
Transform the coordinate system.
Modify an existing feature.
Create a new feature.
Delete a feature.
, When people say that metadata is "data about data," what do they
mean?
Metadata is data that describes data.
How is location identified in a GIS?
x,y coordinates
With GIS data, which format is appropriate for recording a geographic
location?
42.944, -122.172
Vector data can be which three items?
Choose three.
Matrices
Polygons
Cells
Lines
Points
Points
Lines
Polygons
ArcGIS Online provides which four data products and services?
Choose four.
Registries
Demographic data
Deriving coordinate systems
Extracting metadata
