An overview of the Cartographic Production toolset

This toolset contains a tool that allows you to generate a masking feature by erasing an area from an input area of interest (AOI) polygon.

Tool nameDescription

AOI Mask

Generates a masking feature by erasing an area from an input area of interest (AOI) polygon. The masking feature is the difference between the erase and the AOI features. The tool writes an ID value from the AOI polygon and the erase feature class name to a new mask feature in an output feature class. You can use the masking feature to hide parts of layers that render beneath it and outside the erase features. Use this tool to generate aeronautical cartographic data like range rings.
