Bulk copying between GIS data sources

Moving data from one GIS vector…data source to another GIS vector data source…is completed using the bulk copy tool.…Bulk copy enables you to select the features…and any fields you want to copy…to the destination files or database.…Let's try that now.…Drag and drop, a new subdivision…and parcels into my drawing.…There's the brand new subdivision.…It's an SDF file.…There's the original parcels.…That's an SDF file, and we're going…to bulk copy these yellow subdivisions…into the pink parcels.…

So under data, bulk copy, the source…will be the subdivision layer.…We're going to check subdivision.…The target will be the parcels themselves.…Now, we have to make sure that the…schema is correct, that yes it is.…We'll hit continue. Subdivision, hit parcels.…We're not going to bother importing the feature ID.…That's automatic.…I usually skip the feat ID during a bulk copy.…ID matches? Yes it does. ID to ID.…Street name to street name.…Street no. to street no.,…and geometry to geometry.…

So that all matches up.…We can skip insert errors or coordinate system,…
