Esri EADP19-001 Exam - Topic 5 Question 11 Discussion

An ArcGlS user receives two shapefiles that are defined with the same projection and represent features in the same study area. When they are displayed together in ArcMap. the difference of their locations in coordinate space is so large that they are barely visible when viewed at their full extent.How can the user determine whether the projections of the shapefiles are correctly defined?
A) by comparing the shapefiles to a correctly projected dataset that has a large enough extent to encompass the study area.
B) by systematically changing the spatial reference of the data frame until the shapefiles correctly align.
C) by using the Spatial Adjustment toolbar to move the shapefiles to the same part of coordinate space.
D) by examining the metadata of both shapefiles to determine the projection processes applied to the data1.

Wait, how can they have the same projection but be so far apart?

Not sure if the metadata will always help, though.

Comparing to a known dataset is the best way to go!

I think changing the spatial reference is a good idea too.

Just check the metadata for the projections!

I feel like using the Spatial Adjustment toolbar is more about fixing alignment issues rather than checking projections. I’m not sure if that’s relevant here.

Changing the spatial reference of the data frame sounds familiar, but I’m not confident if that’s the best approach for this situation.

I remember we talked about checking the metadata to see if the projections were defined correctly. That might help clarify things.

I’m not entirely sure, but I think comparing the shapefiles to a known dataset could be a good way to check their alignment.

Active Directory seems like a logical choice here, since it's a common identity management system. But I'll double-check the other options just to be sure.

I'm a little confused by the wording of these options. Can business strategy really be a "secondary consideration in compensation design"? That doesn't sound quite right to me.

Okay, let's think this through. The question is asking for the committee's first recommendation, so I'd focus on the options that seem most immediate or urgent.
