Working with Thematic Map

This chapter provides help on creating thematic map in Spectrum Spatial Analyst application.

Spectrum Spatial Analyst allows you to apply themes on maps. Thematic mapping allows you to analyze your data and display it in a variety of ways on a map.

A map that contains one or more Thematic Layers is termed a thematic map. A Layer on the map that has had its visual style altered to represent data associated with that map layer. For example, a Layer might contain suburb boundaries and have associated information about the total population of each suburb. A Thematic can be applied to this Layer so that each suburb is displayed in a different color depending on how large the population of the suburb is?
