Listen to Mom - Reclass your Veggies - Week 11

Raster data has become more 'friendly'; we mesh more often. Reclassifying raster data to allow analysis has opened more opportunities for a 'vector' guy. Are the poly's gone?

Map of Recreation Areas

Here are the proposed recreation areas that do not encroach on sensitive areas and are accessible by road. They are also in close proximity to water (but you might want to boil it). I used the Clip Tool to locate the Preserve areas that overlapped the recreation areas ( just for my assistance), then added a binary field to the Preserve layer and set it to 1. Then used Union to combine Preserve with buffer_union_single and Selected all records not having the Preserve bit set.The Tool output was as expected (love those spatial tools!). I had 79 features in the output layer. The smallest was 5656 sq meters, the largest 8055502.
