Frequently Asked Questions: DFIRM Tools – GIS Data ReViewer

Question


Why do I get the "The associated layer referenced by the error table in no longer in the map." message when trying to visit and error message?

Answer


The error table does not store spatial data for an error record. The record points to a feature class. If you remove a feature class from the Table of Contents to which an error record points, you will receive the error message above.

  1. Re-load the feature class to which the error record points.
  2. If the Location field in the error table is not visible, make it visible using the Toggle Column Visibility Tool.
  3. Check the path name showing in the Location field for the record to determine how to add the feature class.
  4. 4. If the feature class is a notepad feature class created using the Polygon, Polyline, or Point Notepad tools, use the Load Notepad Feature Class tool to load the notepad feature class(es) from the ReViewer session that holds the feature classes. Look at the Location field in the error table to see the path name — it will include the name of the ReViewer session in which it is stored.
  5. If the feature class is one of the DFIRM data layers, use the DFIRM Layer Data Loader to add the appropriate feature class back into the ArcMap project.
