The ArcMap Definition Query is a tool that not many people know about.  The tool takes the simple query interface and applies it to the visible extent of a data layer.  The example shown isolates New Zealand from a layer of countries.  Check it out and tell me what you think.

    The sound quality is terrible and you really need to try and speak more clearly. Other than that the content was good. Thanks

    Thanks for the heads up. I used the built in mic on my laptop. I wasn’t really that happy with it either. I am working to get an external mic and I will redo my videos then.

    Alright, I have a new video with much better sound quality. Try it out and let me know if there are any other issues.

    Thanks.
