Question1: An ArcGIS user is creating a processing environment that will be used repeatedly. To confirm results, the user wants to visualize the output of Intermediate processes during testing. The user is working with large data sets and wants to preserve already-complete steps and focus on one problem at a time.
Which geoprocessing approach should the user consider?

Question2: An ArcGlS user created a geoprocessing script in which the output layer's symbology property is set to an existing layer file. The user intends to share the tool with another ArcGlS user.

Question4: An ArcGIS has created a definition query on a parcel feature in a personal geodatabase to only show areas classified as residential. The user's company has decided to update all personal geodatabase to file geodatabases.
When the ArcGIS user updates the source data to point to the parcel feature class in the file geodatabase they receive the following error.
"One or more layers failed to draw:
Parcel: An invalid SQL statement was used. [Select Shape FROM Parcel WHERE [Parcel] B residential] Parcel: An invalid SQL statement was used" What is the correct SQL statement for the file geodatabase?

Question5: An ArcGIS user is writing a Python script that will update the geometry of all the features of an input layer using a process that requires system tools to examine the geometric properties of each feature.
Which approach should be used to evaluate each feature's geometry and pass it to a system tool?

Question6: An ArcGIS user plans to distribute a series of map documents where the amount of time the map file can be viewed is limited. Which format should the user create to specify a timeout period for these maps?

Question7: An ArcGIS user receives a model to buffer the weekly crime point features. The users organization has established a standard for symbolizing all buffers using a layer file. The user copies and runs the model on a local machine. The resulting output buffer uses default symbology.
Why do the output buffers use the default symbology?

Question8: The ArcGIS user is given data for the Arctic and is asked to perform various types of analysis using the data.
The data extends from the North Pole south to 70 degrees North Latitude Data layers may contain points lines, or polygons, and include ice surveys from NOAA depth contours: continental margins, locations of known and suspected oil reserves, endangered species habitat, and territorial boundaries for nations having Arctic coastline.
Which map projection should be used for the data to allow the most accurate buffering of those areas, in order to comply with the U.S court decision that ships may not approach closer than 20 nautical miles to a seal rookery?

Question9: An ArcGlS user has a point feature class and needs to determine whether there are anyspatial outliers. For this project, a spatial outlier is defined as any feature that is greater than one standard deviation from the mean center of the features.
Which Spatial Statistics geoprocessing tool should be used to accomplish this task?

Question10: An ArcGIS user creates a map showing the level of human Impact on the natural landscape. Major habitat types are shown with unique colors, and the level of disturbance for each habitat Is shown with a graduated symbol.
What is this type of map symbology?

Question11: An ArcGIS user wants to make a map displaying the data using an equal number of features in each classification. Which classification method should the user employ to accomplish this?

Question12: Refer to the exhibits.


An ArcGIS user is attempting to create a relationship class between the two tables shown in the exhibit using POSTAL_CODE and Zip Code as the origin primary key and destination foreign Keys, respectively. However when the user tries to set the keys zip Cede does not appear in the drop-down list of candidate keys What should the user do to successfully create the relationship class?

Question13: An ArcGIS user is tasked with publishing an image service out of a collection of rectified satellite imagery.
Building the Image service definition results In a rotated dataset with large areas of NoData on the comers.
The ArcGIS user needs to recompute the footprints to remove the large areas of NoData on the edges. Which method of recomputing footprints accomplishes this?

Question14: An ArcGIS user needs to create a map of flood zones for an insurance company. The user has a choice of four elevation data sets to perform the analysis

Question15: Using street data for a large metropolitan area, which analysis method shows the nearest hospital to a traffic accident?

Question16: An ArcGIS user in a county office receives a large volume of data In shapefiles, coverages and table formats.
The user is responsible for converting the data to a standard feature class format and writing it into a central enterprise geodatabase. The data must be simultaneously available for editing and spatial analysis tasks.
How should the Windows Task Scheduler be used to achieve these goals?

Question17: The ArcGlS user is given data for the Arctic and is asked to perform various types of analysis using the data.
The data extend from the North pole south to 70 degrees North Latitude Data layers may contain points, lines, or polygons, and Include ice surveys from NOAA depth contours continental margins, locations of Known and suspected oil reserves, endangered species habitat and territorial boundaries for nations having Arctic coastline.
Given known petroleum reserves in the Arctic, plus areas reserved for endangered species habitat the user must determine the area In square miles that is available for oil extraction development for the United States.
Which protection is best suited for this analysis?

Question18: An ArcGIS user adds two feature classes with different coordinate systems in ArcMap. one at a time. The user starts editing data from the second feature class and is warned about editing the feature class because the coordinate system is different from the data frame.
Where do the edits occur?

Question19: An ArcGlS user has high-resolution single-band data and another raster datasetthat is multiband with lower resolution. Which process is used to convert the single-band data to multi-band, while retaining its resolution?

Question20: A geometric network has been removed from a feature dataset.
What must happen to the geodatabase to avoid synchronization failing?

Question21: A representation layer has been defined using the option to save changes to the geometry of the supporting feature. If the geometry of the feature is modified using the tools from the Representation toolbar, what will be modified?

Question22: While attempting to geocode schools within a 20-mile of a museum, an ArcGIS user realizes that the table they are trying to geocode only contains the names of the schools. The table tails to include the school addresses.
Which type of table should the user link to their address locator in order to efficiently display the locations of the schools?

Question23: Four emergency response facilities need to be placed so that the greatest number of people in a community can be reached within five minutes.
Which analysis method is used to make this determination?

Question24: An ArcGIS user is given a geodatabase containing polygon and point features.

Question25: Given an elevation surface, a raster of forest stands, and a point feature class of saw mills, which analysis is used to determine the optimal route from each forest stand to the nearest saw mill?

Question26: An ArcGlS administrator is creating a custom toolbar containing tools commonly used throughout the administrator's organization. The tools include browsing, querying, and editing tools. All tools will be located on a single custom toolbar.
How can this custom toolbar be designed to maximize efficiency?

Question27: An ArcGIS user wants to symbolize the intersections of highways and streets so that the road casing symbols can be blended together to represent connectivity, but not blended in other situations to represent disconnectivity (e.g. where a highway passes under a surface street) What should be used to ensure that the road casings connect correctly?

Question28: When is an ArcGlS user required to change the format of data before working with it in ArcMap?

Question30: An ArcGIS user wants to create a tool that reads a Web data source from the U.S. Geological Survey site and create a feature class of earthquakes over magnitude 1 that have occurred in the last seven days. The data source URL is a .txt file directly usable as x, v event data, once downloaded.
The goal is to have a repeatable process to be run on demand overwriting the output each time with minimal user input and easy to understand for other users to whom the tool is provided What should the user do to read and process the data?
