PART III: Process Summary Details
Record your notes about the exercise (important things you learned or might want to refer back to in the future) and details about any processes you ran that are not already outlined in the lab instructions.


• use arc python for multiple tool operations
• type import archly upon start up to initiate arc python, then type archly. and select tool
• always use parenthesis and quotes and separate things with comma. spaces don't matter
• update tool is similar to union tool, but update will dissolve boundary lines between two
layers.
