coverage model?
Connectivity
Which of the following is true about the vector data model?
-The model uses points, lines, and polygons to represent simple spatial features.
-The representation of spatial features using the vector data model depends on map
scale.
-The model uses x-, y-coordinates to store the geometry of spatial features.
Select the following statements that are true about a GIS database:
-Real world data is represented as separate thematic layers
-Data from different thematic layers are combined through analysis

Multipart features are used to represent multiple geographic objects that represent parts
of the same entity
True
A geological map showing bore holes, faults, and rock outcrops that emit radon (in that
order) could be captured into the GIS as:
Points, lines, and areas.

Which of the following is true about a line feature?
, - A line feature is made of line segments (arcs).

- The shape of a line is defined by arcs connected by vertices.
Choose all of the statements that are true about attribute tables:
-An attribute table is associated with each thematic layer in a vector data model.
-A single row in the attribute table corresponds to each feature
-Each feature is given a unique numeric identifier within the attribute table.
