Use the edge-matching process on one layer at a time. You might edge match
the roads on the two maps first.
You can avoid using edge matching by digitizing a complete map in one
session, rather than breaking the map into smaller sections. If you must digitize
a map in sections, allow a 3-5% overlap along the edges of a map tile and
digitize both linear and point features on each tile that are common to both
tiles of the map.

To match map edges
1 Open a drawing and attach the maps you want to match at edges.
2 Define a query to retrieve the objects to match:
■ Click Home tab ➤ Data panel ➤ Define Query.
■ Define a location condition with a buffer fence option. When defining
the buffer fence, select the edge to match and specify a suitable buffer
fence width.
■ You can also add a property condition to select objects on a specific
layer.
3 Click Tools tab ➤ Map Edit panel ➤ Clean Up.
