• Adding calculated fields to a table
• Types of derived geometry fields based upon feature layers' geometry type (point, polyline, polygon)
• Setting the units of measurement for your derived geometry fields.

• This video GIS tutorial will demonstrate creating calculated fields in a feature layer's attribute table using the Calculated Field Expression builder.  

• Creating Drive Time Rings with Census Data
• Adding a calculated field to normalize field values
• Using the Data Explorer to visualize results
