gray image showing the words for symbology A significant aspect of managing each map layer is the ability to set a wide array of layer properties in the Properties dialog box. To display as LANDFIRE displays on the viewer:

ArcMap:

  • Right click the layer in ArcMap
  • Click on Properties
  • Click on Symbology
  • Select Unique Values
  • In Value Field use the dropdown to select the desired field
  • To display your data in the same way that the map viewer does, select the "Name or Label" field

 

ArcPro:

  • Right click on the layer in ArcPro and select Symbology
  • A dialog box will open, under Primary Symbology select Unique Values from the dropdown list
  • Below that box, you will see Field 1, use the dropdown to select the desired field for display
  • To display your data in the same way that the map viewer does, select the "Name or Label" field

 

It may also be helpful to review the "Setting layer properties" on the ArcMap web page or ArcPro web Page prior to working with LANDFIRE products.
