Symbolizing contours

Доступно с лицензией Production Mapping.

There are typically many contour values in a database. This makes it difficult to render the contours based on their values because there would be several unique values. However, contours are predictable, and therefore, a repeating pattern of symbols can be assigned and still have meaning. The default pattern of the five repeating symbols used can be customized. This repeating pattern can also help with validating the contours. When you notice the color of the lines is out of order, this may be an indication that a contour line is missing or the elevation value is populated incorrectly.
