Sample EGMP Practice Questions

Try these sample questions to test your EGMP exam readiness. Each question includes a detailed explanation. Start the interactive quiz above for the full 100+ question experience with AI tutoring.

1A utility company plans to edit feature services through ArcGIS Enterprise web feature layers and needs full multiuser web editing with named versions. Which versioning type should the geodatabase administrator choose?
A.Branch versioning
B.Traditional versioning
C.No versioning (non-versioned editing)
D.Historical archiving only
Explanation: Branch versioning is designed for the Web GIS model: it supports multiuser editing through web feature layers (feature services) and uses named versions managed via services-based architecture. It is the required choice for service-based web editing workflows.
2Which dataset types in an enterprise geodatabase can ONLY be registered as branch versioned (not traditional versioned)?
A.Network datasets and terrain datasets
B.Utility networks, parcel fabrics, and trace networks
C.Mosaic datasets and raster catalogs
D.Feature classes with attachments only
Explanation: Utility networks, parcel fabrics, trace networks, and the linear referencing system require branch versioning. These advanced datasets depend on the services-based, web GIS editing model that only branch versioning supports.
3A geodatabase design calls for a flat version tree so that reconcile operations remain predictable. Which statement best describes this best practice?
A.Only one version (DEFAULT) is ever created and no named versions are allowed
B.Each version is created from a different base table to isolate edits
C.All named versions are created as children of DEFAULT so DEFAULT is the common ancestor
D.Versions are chained sequentially so each child branches from the previous child version
Explanation: A flat version tree keeps DEFAULT as the common ancestor of all named versions. This simplifies reconcile and post, reduces conflicts, and keeps the state lineage shallow, which is an Esri best practice.
4An organization must distribute editable data to a remote office that is permanently disconnected from the central network. Edits must flow in both directions and synchronize by exchanging files. Which replication type fits?
A.One-way parent-to-child replication
B.Checkout/check-in replication
C.Branch version reconcile/post
D.Two-way replication in a disconnected environment
Explanation: Two-way replication lets changes flow from parent to child and child to parent. In a disconnected environment, synchronization is performed by exporting data-change messages to files and importing them at the other replica.
5When designing two-way geodatabase replication, what is a requirement for both the parent and child replicas?
A.Both must be enterprise geodatabases
B.The child must be a file geodatabase
C.Both must use branch versioning
D.Neither may be registered as versioned
Explanation: Two-way replication requires that both the source (parent) and destination (child) be enterprise geodatabases because edits and conflict tracking flow in both directions and rely on enterprise geodatabase versioning.
6A design requires sending data changes repeatedly in a single direction from a production parent geodatabase to a read-only publication child geodatabase. Which replication type is appropriate?
A.Branch versioning
B.One-way parent-to-child replication
C.Two-way replication
D.Checkout/check-in replication
Explanation: One-way replication sends changes repeatedly in a single direction. In parent-to-child one-way replication the child is treated as read-only, which suits a publication or distribution database.
7Which statement correctly contrasts where editing occurs in branch versus traditional versioning?
A.Both branch and traditional versioning require a feature service for editing
B.Both branch and traditional versioning forbid direct database connection editing
C.Branch versioned data is edited only through a feature service; traditional versioned data can be edited via a direct database connection
D.Branch versioned data is edited only via direct database connection; traditional versioned data is edited only through services
Explanation: Branch versioned data must be edited through a feature service (services-based architecture) and cannot be edited directly via a database connection. Traditional versioned data can be edited through a direct connection to the enterprise geodatabase.
8An administrator wants to retain a queryable record of all changes (a full history) to branch versioned feature classes so users can view the data at any past moment. Which capability provides this?
A.A two-way replica
B.A non-versioned table copy
C.A spatial index on the OBJECTID field
D.Branch versioning's built-in archiving (moment-in-time queries)
Explanation: Branch versioning is built on a temporal model with archiving enabled, so every edit is recorded and the data can be queried at any moment in time. This provides full change history without separate snapshots.
9Which relational database management systems are supported for hosting an ArcGIS enterprise geodatabase?
A.Microsoft SQL Server, Oracle, PostgreSQL, IBM Db2, and SAP HANA
B.Only Microsoft Access and SQLite
C.Only Oracle and MySQL
D.Only PostgreSQL and MongoDB
Explanation: An enterprise geodatabase can be created in Microsoft SQL Server, Oracle, PostgreSQL, IBM Db2, and SAP HANA. These are the supported multiuser relational platforms for the geodatabase storage model.
10A design team must decide between a single spatially enabled database (a database) and a full enterprise geodatabase. Which capability is available ONLY with a full enterprise geodatabase, not a plain spatial database?
A.Connecting from ArcGIS Pro
B.Geodatabase versioning, archiving, topology, and the geodatabase system tables
C.Storing point, line, and polygon geometry
D.Running SQL queries against spatial columns
Explanation: Geodatabase-specific behaviors such as versioning, archiving, topology, networks, and the geodatabase system tables require enabling the enterprise geodatabase. A plain spatial database can store geometry and be queried but lacks these geodatabase functions.
