Intro to GIS Chapters 8-11

The Update geoprocessing operation will:

Append the new layer on top of an existing layer

A spatial join represents which of the following?

Appending attributes from one layer to another based on the spatial relationship of the layers

Matching multiple addresses at once describes:

Batch geocoding

A region of spatial proximity computed around a feature or set of features:

Buffer

In a spatial join, which join type (or match option) would be used to find the nearest first aid station to a hiking trail?

Closest

A process used to determine which locations on a network are nearest (via network distance) to a different set of locations is:

Closest Facility

The component of a network that describes how features properly link up with one another is:

Connectivity

Using the Summarize Within tool to count the number of fast food restaurants in each county will append what new attribute field to the counties layer?

Count of Points

Using credits from ArcGIS Online, the Summarize Nearby tool in ArcGIS Pro can create _______________, which represent how far one could travel by vehicle on a road during a certain amount of time.

Drive-time polygons

An online utility that allows for geocoding one or more addresses is:

Geocoding Service

Which of the following Select Layer By Location relationships would you use to select parcels that are completely or partially on the floodplain?

Intersecting the source layer feature

What role does parsing play in the geocoding process?

It breaks up the address string into its component pieces.

How is a service area different from a simple buffer?

It is constrained by the edges of the network unlike a regular buffer.

In ArcGIS Pro, a road like Mahoning Avenue would be stored in a feature class as:

Multiple records, each making up a line segment of Mahoning Avenue

The Symmetrical Difference geoprocessing operation will:

Preserve all the features of one layer and all of the features of a second layer except for the areas that they have in common

The Global Moran's I test detects:

Spatial autocorrelation

In a spatial analysis operation, "source" refers to:

The layer that serves as the starting point

Spatial autocorrelation refers to:

The measure of the degree of clustering of objects and their data values

When two polygons are overlaid, what happens to the attribute tables?

The new object has one attribute table containing attributes from both inputs.

Why would linear interpolation cause an address to be matched to an incorrect location?

The range of addresses in the reference dataset does not match the real-world range of addresses.

TIGER/Line files are created and maintained by:

U.S. Census Bureau

The end result of a point-in-polygon overlay is:

A new point layer with the polygon attributes joined to the points that fall within that polygon

What is the end result of a geocoding operation?

A set of points, each showing the location of the matched address.

What makes a spatial query different from a regular Select By Attributes query?

A spatial query is based on location rather than attributes.

Splitting an address into its component pieces for geocoding is:

Address parsing

Which of the following geoprocessing tools will extract the features of one layer based on the geometry of features in a second layer?

Clip

In a network, a link between two intersections is considered a(n):

Edge

Geoprocessing options that control activities in a map document are:

Environment settings

In a service area, the location for which you are determining the area of service is referred to as:

Facility

An address locator style is used in geocoding for which of the following?

It establishes the criteria for how the geocoding is going to be performed.

In a network, a node that connects two line segments is considered a(n):

Junction

The ArcGIS Pro extension used for network operations is the:

Network Analyst

Linear interpolation is used in geocoding by:

Providing an estimate of where the point should be plotted along a line segment.

The goal of Dijkstra's Algorithm is:

To find the shortest path between an origin and all other nodes in a network

What type of problem-solving technique is used when examining a utility network?

Trace

Which of the following geoprocessing tools will retain all the features of both layers?

Union

The non-transportation networks used in ArcGIS Pro for solving utility-related problems (such as water pipelines or power networks) are:

Utility Networks

Which of the following geoprocessing tools will combine one or more layers with an already existing feature class?

Append

Which of the following geoprocessing tools will retain all the features from the first layer along with the features it has in common with the second layer?

Identity

Address Locators can be shared using ArcGIS Online by creating which of the following?

Locator Package

Impedance refers to:

The cost of traveling the length of a network edge

The Getis-Ord General G statistic allows you to determine:

The degree of clustering for high or low values

Hot spot analysis is used to:

Determine spatial clusters of high values and low values

The closest facility tool in ArcGIS Pro:

Determines which of several facility locations on a network is nearest to the starting incident

In terms of spatial autocorrelation, the opposite of a clustered pattern would be:

Dispersed

What type of overlay operation will result in a line layer where the lines have the attributes of the polygons through which they pass?

Line-on-polygon overlay

Which of the following attributes would you not expect to find in a streets layer, like the TIGER/Line files?

Number of houses per street

The Traveling Salesman Problem involves:

Rearranging the order of stops

The answer to a query such as "Which culverts are contained within the county boundaries?" can be found by using which method?

Which tool in ArcGIS Pro could be used to find how many schools are within 1 mile of each library?

Summarize Nearby

Which of the following spatial analysis questions could be answered with the Summarize Within tool in ArcGIS Pro?

What is the total number of historic bridges in each county of a state?
