Subject: GISList: cleaning polygons
Date:  07/31/2003 01:05:01 PM
From:  Bill Medina



Dear All:

I have a shape file that is the results of several intercepted ones in Arc
View. Some polygon are so small that I would like to merge them with the
adjacent one based on the greatest area. I do not know if there is a limit
of the number or size of polygons, but when I work with the theme sometimes
it leaves "empty holes" in the middle specially when intersecting it again.
Does any of you know any good tools to clean the shape file? I would like to
combine all adjacent polygons having the same attribute, I have tried Xtools
and Geoprocessing but things just get worse. I also tried to export shapes
as coverages in Arc GIS and then export them back to shapes but no success.
Other problem is that there are some donough holes...

A good advise will be really appreciated.

Thanks a lot,
William,
