Creating identity links

Identity links can be used to hold features in place at specified locations. Identity links can serve as "anchors" because they prevent the movement of features during an adjustment.

Identity links are only available when using the Rubbersheet adjustment method. Like displacement links, identity links are represented as graphic elements in the map.

Steps:

1. Click the New Identity Link tool on the Spatial Adjustment toolbar.
2. Position the pointer over the source location and click once.
3. Add additional identity links to locations to prevent the movement of features during an adjustment.
