GDB Esri File Geodatabase Import Options Dialog

The File Geodatabase Import Options dialog can limit the import to features within the specified spatial range.

Specify the import options in theFile Geodatabase Import Optionsdialog.

Spatial Limits

File geodatabases may contain more objects than you wish to import. Use the North, South, East, and West fields in the Spatial Limits section to limit the import to objects within a specific range. The actual file limits cannot be known until the file is imported. Therefore by default, the North, South, East, and West fields are populated with the largest possible range.

Inclusivity

The Inclusivity option controls whether or not objects that intersect the Spatial Limits are imported. Select the Inclusivity option to import objects that are at least partially within theSpatial Limits. Clear theInclusivityoption to import only objects completely within theSpatial Limits.

Select Dataset Layers to Import

Select the layers you wish to import in the Select dataset layers to import list. Layers with a selected check box will be imported. Layers with a cleared check box will not be imported. Click Select All to select all layers. Click Clear All to clear all layers.
