Extract Data

With this tool, you can select and download data for a specified area of interest. Layers that you select will be added to a zip file or layer package.

Layers to Extract

The layers in your table of contents from which you can extract features. Layers that are checked are extracted and included in a resulting zip file or layer package.

Study area

The area that defines which features will be included in the output zip file or layer package. You can choose from the following:

The current visible extent of your map ( Same as display).
One of the layers in your table of contents.
Draw an area to define the study area.

All features completely within the map extent will be extracted. For features that cross or intersect the map extent boundary but are not completely within the extent, you have two options:

Select features—Entire features that cross the boundary of the study area will be extracted.
Clip features—Only those portions of features that are within the study area will be extracted.

Output data type

Format of the data that will be extracted and downloaded. Layer packages will always include file geodatabases.

Output file name

This is the name of the item that will be added to your My Contents. The item name is based on the chosen Output data format. If the item already exists you will be asked to confirm if you want to overwrite it.

Using the Save result in drop-down box, you can specify the name of a folder in My Contents where the result will be saved.
