    • Feature Identity—Attributes related to the identification of the feature, such as its long name (LNAM) and object identification value. Most of these attributes cannot be edited.
    • S-57 Attributes—S-57 attributes specific to the subtype of the selected feature.
    • Feature Extraction—Attributes that define how the feature is extracted from the database during export, such as the scale and conflation setting.
