Multi-Ring Buffer Map: Polygon Entities

Aim:

To create a Multi-Ring Buffer Map using the chosen polygon attributes.

Procedure:

Step 1: Map Input

Identify the polygon component for the location dataset. For this session,  water bodies were digitized from the given topographic map of Nellore & Cuddapah Districts.

Step 2: Map Processing

• ·         Locate the Multi-Ring Buffer tool in toolbox. In this session “Multi-Ring” tool in Proximity toolset was chosen.
  
• ·         Define the Tool Input “Polygon” and  the linear Distances that will be computed as buffer distance (0.5, 1 and 2 Kilometers respectively) and specify the target output location
• ·         Click “Ok” to generate the map output

Step 3: Map Display

Create Custom Map Layout with the necessary map elements and Export map to Jpeg format

Conclusion:

Multi-Ring Buffer maps for the chosen polygon  attributes are generated using ArcGis 10.1.
