Set Up Responder Map Layers

In ArcMap, you can set up Responder map layers that graphically depict on the map the location of incidents, hazards, and crews. Map layers are set up on a client machine. Once they have been set up, you may save the map layers as a system stored display or system document that may be accessed by all other client machine users. The following steps should be performed in order:

Create Responder Group Layer

Create Spatial Views or Create Definition Queries or Create Join Layers

Using Spatial Views or Definition Queries will provide performance enhancement over using Join Layers.

Create XY Event Layers or Create Query Layers

Using Query Layers will provide performance enhancement over using XY Event Layers.

Create Symbology
