ArcGIS Pro offers a plethora of tools designed to manipulate, analyze, and
visualize geographic information efficiently. Among its many features, the
concept of selection layers stands out as a powerful mechanism for
enhancing geospatial analysis. This article delves into the functionality,
applications, and benefits of using selection layers within ArcGIS Pro.
Understanding Selection Layers

Selection layers in ArcGIS Pro are temporary layers created from a
selection of features within an existing layer. These layers enable users
to isolate and work with subsets of data without altering the original
dataset. Selection layers are dynamic; they can be updated, edited, or
