1. Module 3012
assignment 3
Video clips on selecting features using a
buffer and clipping features to exact
shapes, using the “toolboxes”

2. This presentation contains two
YouTube video clips
• Clip 1: Selecting features which are on or near
another feature, using a buffer or search
distance
• Clip 2: Clipping one set of features by the
outline of another set, using one of the tools
in the ArcMAP toolboxes.

3. Clip 1: follows this slide
• It is assumed you have worked through the
first two sets of video clips.
• This video shows how to select features which
are both on or near another feature. This can
give more control over your selection
• Clip 2 follows clip 1 and you can go straight to
it by clicking the advance button below
without watching clip 1

4. Clip 2: follows this slide
• In this video you will see how to use area
features on one layer to clip out features on
another layer as if you had used a biscuit
cutter. You will have to use the ArcMAP
toolboxes for the first time for this.
