In this first (of four) short blogs I’ll be experimenting with the basics of symbolising line features. It might seem simple, and it often is when you only have a single non-overlapping line to symbolise, but what if you have multiple coincident lines? Then the problem becomes more complicated but simplicity remains the key for clarity.<\/p>\n
During our time working at home during the pandemic, I used a GPS receiver to capture all of the morning and evening walks we enjoyed with our dog, Wisley. In total, that’s 730 routes captured, and using ArcGIS Pro there’s a multitude of ways to slice and dice the routes, and ways in which we can symbolise them.<\/p>\n
In this first short video I explore how we might symbolise each line so they stack into a coherent whole. I also emphasise how definition queries remain a great way of highlighting certain aspects of data, which we can symbolise using different colours (hues) that relate to the selection.<\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"youtube","start_time":"0","end_time":"","youtube_video_url":"
