Swipe Feature

Shifting the feature is done if there is a feature whose placement does not match the actual conditions in the satellite image. The feature shift can be done if the entire feature will be shifted entirely.

1. Enter into editing mode by right-clicking on the layer (Irrigation Area or Irrigation Channel) Edit Features Start Editing.

2. In the Editor toolbar click Edit Tool click feature and drag to the actual location in the satellite image.

3. If the editing process is complete in the Editor toolbar click Editor Save Edits Stop Editing

Edit Vertices

Edit Feature is used to fix vectors, both lines and polygons. Basically, editing vertices is done by pulling the vertices in a shp. So when this tool is used, the nodes that have been created during digitization will reappear and can be drawn according to the reference (satellite image). These node points can be added as needed.

1. Enter into editing mode by right-clicking on the layer (Irrigation Area or Irrigation Channel) Edit Features Start Editing.

2.    Click the channel or irrigation areafunctionality to be fixed in the Editor toolbar click Edit Vertices  ️drag the vertice to the path that matches the satellite image. To add a vertex, right-click on the line to which you want to add a vertex️ select Insert Vertex.

3. If you have finished editing the vertices, click anywhere outside the line segment being edited, then the vector will change according to the changes that have been made.

4. If the filling process is complete in the Editor toolbar click Editor Save Edits Stop Editing

Reshape Feature

Reshape is used to change the shape of a line or polygon. The new path that will be formed continues to start and end at the outerline or line of the shp. An overview of the reshape can be seen in the following sketch.

1. Enter into editing mode by right-clicking on the layer (Irrigation Area or Irrigation Channel) Edit Features Start Editing.

2. Click the section where the channel vector or functional irrigation area will be repaired in the Editor toolbar click Reshape Feature Tool  ️ start doing vector repairs by clicking on the initial location of the outer line

or the line to be repaired then do the digitization following the appearance in the satellite image to complete the digitization then connect the digitization to the outer line or line in the shp that is in accordance with the satellite image to end the reshape feature tool.

3. As with the previous digitization, the Ctrl+Z combination can be used in this step to use the Undo function.

4. If the filling process is complete in the Editor toolbar click Editor Save Edits Stop Editing.

Split

Split is used specifically for cutting vector lines, in this case irrigation canals. Cutting is intended to divide one line into 2 lines with cutting locations as needed.

1. Enter into editing mode by right-clicking on the layer (Irrigation Area or Irrigation Channel) Edit Features Start Editing.

2. Click the segment to be vectored (irrigation canal) in the Editor toolbar click

Split 

3. A point-shaped pointer will appear to cut the line specify the cutting location by clicking on the line.

Merge Vector in One shp

Merge is used to merge2 or more features into one feature only. This feature can be used to combine several features that have the same value, for example: irrigation channel levels (primary, secondary and tertiary) are combined into one feature. This merge feature can be used to combine both lines (irrigation channels) and polygons (irrigated areas).

1. Enter into editing mode by right-clicking on the layer (Irrigation Area or Irrigation Channel) Edit Features Start Editing.

2. Click Edit Tool in the Editor toolbar.

3. Hold down the Shift key on the keyboard while selecting the features to be combined

4. After the features are selected, click Editor on the Editor toolbar click Merge Select one main feature, where other features will be merged into the main feature Click OK.

Merge Vector Multiple shp

Data creation for both types of irrigation building data and irrigation area data should be made in one shp, however, regional data are not always depicted in one data. Irrigation canals, for example, are often constructed according to their level (primary, secondary and tertiary) or separate irrigation areas according to the name of the irrigation area. For this reason, the Merge tool feature in ArcToolbox is needed to combine 2 or more shp.

1. Enter the feature class or shp by clicking Add Data in the Standard toolbar.

Add Data can also be done by right-clicking Layers on the Table of Contents

️ Add Data

2. Browse the feature class or shp of irrigation canals or irrigation areas that are still separate.

3. Click ArcToolbox which can be found in the Standard toolbar drop down data toolbox group Data Management Tools General double click Merge.

4. A dialog box appears as below. Set the input datasets as data shp in the amount of 2 or more setting the Output Datasets to the destination folder and giving it a name according to the conditions previously mentioned Adjust the order of the fields if needed click OK.

5. The output file will be automatically added to the Table of Contents, then re-check the vector results and attribute data that have been generated.
