ADERSHEET (Rubber Sheet command)
Use this command to get two or more data sets from different sources to align
geographically: for example, when stretching a new subdivision map into a
preexisting parcel map.
To rubber sheet two maps (page 935)
Click Tools tab Map Edit panel Rubber Sheet.
WARNING Use rubber sheeting only when it is absolutely necessary because it
can severely compromise the accuracy of your data.
NOTE This command is for drawing objects only. To edit geospatial features, see
Extracting Feature Geometry (page 715).
Respond to the prompts:
Base point 1:
Specify a point.
Reference point 1:
Specify the new location for the first point.
Base point 2:
Specify another point. When you finish specifying points, press Enter. Keep
in mind that the more points you enter, the more accurate the results will
be.
Select objects by <Area>/Select:
Enter a to select all objects in the polygon, or enter s to select objects
individually.
Objects wholly within the original polygon are modified to fit the new shape
and location of the polygon.
