We will be customizing this database to fit the goals of our mapping project.
#Troubleshoot labeling manager arcgis download#
You will download the ESRI geologic mapping geodatabase and style sheet that contains all potential point, line, and polygon styles used for creating geologic maps, as well as appropriate labeling styles. This is important so that the symbology for field observations and the communication of uncertainty is consistent when looking at maps produced by different authors. We will be following the USGS style guide for making geologic maps. Making a geologic cross sectionĤ.1 Installing the Cross Section Tools toolboxĤ.3 Extracting a segmented surface profileĤ.4 Projecting point and line features into the cross sectionĥ.1 The layout window and basic page designįor this section, you will set up your mapping document as well as the database structure for your geologic map that will be used for the remainder of the mapping exercise.
