Use the UniqueValueRenderer to display feature data that falls into distinct categories based on attribute values. For example, if you have parcel data with land use types of residential, agriculture, and retail, you can use a different symbol to represent each unique land use type.
Each unique value can define a unique category, represented with a single symbol, or values can by combined by grouping so that more than one value is symbolized with the same symbol. Grouping is implemented by utilizing IUniqueValueRenderer::ReferenceValue. Also, headings can be used to organize categories in the table of contents and legend, see IUniqueValueRenderer::Heading.
Unique value renderering is typically based on a single attribute field, however up to 3 fields can be used. When more than one field is used, the combinations of the unique values from each field are used to define the categories. So, for example if two fields are used which store the values A and B; and X, Y, and Z respectively, then the initial categories will be defined as A|X, A|Y, A|Z, B|X, B|Y, and B|Z.
