A GeoTable is a flexible table definition provided by the software. The software creates feature classes with a very simple schema. The schema consists solely of the Geometry, the unique ID and feature type. The software provides a dynamic join of this data to our trademarked GeoTable. The join is then managed so that it will be automatically updated on a change to the GeoTable definition for each element type.

GeoTables allow for a dynamic view on the data. The underlying data will represent the data for the current scenario, the current timestep and the unit definition of the GeoTable. By using these GeoTables, the software provides ultimate flexibility for using the viewing and rendering tools provided by the ArcMap environment.

Note that the GeoTable settings are not hydraulic model-specific, but are stored on your local machine - any changes you make will carry across all hydraulic models. This means that if you have ArcMap display settings based on attributes contained in customized GeoTables, you will have to copy the AttributeFlexTables.xml file (located in the C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Bentley\ Bentley SewerGEMS CONNECT\10 folder) for these display settings to work on another computer.

Using GeoTables, you can:

• Apply ArcMap symbology definitions to map elements based on Bentley SewerGEMS CONNECT data
• Use the ArcMap Select By Attributes command to select map elements based on Bentley SewerGEMS CONNECT data
• Generate ArcMap reports and graphs that include Bentley SewerGEMS CONNECT data

To Edit a GeoTable:

1. In the FlexTable Manager list pane, expand the GeoTables node if necessary. Double-click the GeoTable for the desired element.
2. By default, only the ID, Label, and Notes data is included in the GeoTable. To add attributes, click the Edit button.
3. In the Table setup dialog that appears, move attributes from the Available Columns list to the Selected columns list to include them in the GeoTable. This can be accomplished by double-clicking an attribute in the list, or by highlighting attributes and using the arrow buttons (a single arrow button moves the highlighted attribute to the other list; a double arrow moves all of them).
4. When all of the desired attributes have been moved to the selected columns, click OK.
