CREATELLHATCH.AML - A Program for Creating Annotated Latitude and Longitude Hatch Marks
Sharon L. QiJennifer B. Sieverling , Terri L. Arnold
CREATELLHATCH generates an ArcInfo coverage of annotated latitude-longitude hatch marks along a boundary polygon coverage, for example, a state or a study area boundary. Unlike the ARCPLOT commands that create reference marks as graphical objects along a neatline quadrilateral, CREATELLHATCH creates reference arcs and annotation as coverage features along a polygon boundary of any shape. These features can be altered in ARCEDIT to meet user-specific requirements, for example, to create additional annotation subclasses. The user can specify the location of hatch marks: inside or outside the boundary, or both. This program runs completely within AML.
