Attribute rules and dictionary symbology in ArcGIS Pro help streamline geologic map compilation in GeMS

January 1, 2020

Attribute rules and dictionary symbology are functionality available in ArcGIS Pro that can dramatically streamline the compilation of geologic maps in GeMS - the Geologic Map Schema that is the standard delivery schema mandated for projects funded by the Cooperative Geologic Mapping Program. Testing of the functionality produced attribute rules and a symbol dictionary that support two compilation workflows, one for digitizing an existing analog map, the other for compiling new field mapping.
