Updating nautical symbology (Maritime Charting)

The Update tool adds the required fields (RuleID, Override, and Text string) to the feature classes selected, and if they do not exist, it then updates the values accordingly. ArcGIS for Maritime : Création de diagrammes’s NIS, chart, and ENC schemas are preconfigured with INT1 specification. Since the geodatabases are preconfigured, using the Update tool is not necessary. When creating national symbology, editing the representation rule, or adding a representation rule on a specific layer, it will require the use of the Update tool on the geodatabase. In an enterprise environment, where some users are restricted from making schema changes, it is recommended that an administrator run this tool with the appropriate symbology first.
