Running a parcel fabric feature adjustment

This topic applies to ArcEditor and ArcInfo only.

A parcel fabric feature adjustment is run in ArcMap. Feature classes are associated with a parcel fabric in both ArcMap and the Catalog window. In ArcMap, features are associated with the current target fabric by clicking the Add button on the Feature Adjustment dialog box. In the Catalog window, features are associated with a parcel fabric by clicking the Add button on the Associations tab on the Parcel Fabric Properties dialog box.

NoteNote:

A parcel feature adjustment is only used to realign features that have become misaligned with parcel boundaries after they have been adjusted with least squares. A feature adjustment cannot be used to align features that were originally misaligned with parcel boundaries.

Steps:

    To run a parcel fabric feature adjustment, follow these steps:

  1. In an edit session in ArcMap, click the Parcel Editor arrow on the Parcel Editor toolbar and click the Feature Adjustment command.
  2. If you are working in manual mode using fabric jobs, the fabric job in which you are working needs to be closed. Features are adjusted outside fabric jobs.
  3. On the Feature Adjustment dialog box, choose the feature classes that will participate in the feature adjustment.
  4. NoteNote:

    The adjusted date of an associated feature class is set when the feature class is first associated with a parcel fabric. If a feature class is already listed as an associated feature class on the Feature Adjustment dialog box, the Set Date button is unavailable.

  5. Click the Adjust button to run the feature adjustment.
  6. The adjustment is applied to the chosen feature classes, and the Feature Adjustment dialog box is closed.
  7. Reopen the Feature Adjustment dialog box (Parcel Editor > Feature Adjustment).
  8. The adjusted date of the adjusted feature classes is set to the date of the most recent fabric least-squares adjustment that was run on the underlying parcels.
