description agement system - A database management system with the ability to access data organized in tabular files that can be related to each other by a common field. An RDBMS can recombine the data items from different files, providing powerful tools for data usage. RDBMS services include validation rules, relationships, and topological associations. * Rematching - A re-geocoding of a subset of addresses (which can included all or fewer than the original set of addressed) of features in a geocoded feature class. Rematching is done when partial or unmatched records result when geocoding address with errors such as misspellings or other data entry errors. * Scale - The distance ratio measured on a map to that distance measured on the ground between the same two points. For example if one cm on a map equals 1,000,000 cm in the real world the map scale would be 1:1,000,000. This scale of 1:1,000,000 on the map would be considered small scale compared to a map with a scale of 1:1,000 * Select feature tool - The Select Feature tool lets you select features with the mouse by pointing at them or by dragging a selection box over them. Features that fall partly or wholly inside the box you define will be selected. Features will be selected from all of the currently active themes
