Detailed Description

Translate a Digital Map With GeMS, Part C2 - How to translate point features and non-spatial information from another schema to GeMS

This tutorial is one of six originally presented as part of a short course at the 2021 Northeastern Section Meeting of the Geological Society of America by Ralph Haugerud, USGS, on how to use ArcMap and custom tools to create GeMS-compliant ArcGIS file geodatabases.
