5. GeoDatabase Design and Creation

5.1

Logical Design
A logical data model describes the data in as much detail as
possible, without regard to how they will be physical implemented
in the database. Features of a logical data model include:
All entities and relationships among them.
All attributes for each entity are specified.
The primary key for each entity is specified.
Foreign keys (keys identifying the relationship between
different entities) are specified.
All the feature class have one-to-many relationship as shown in the
model below. The relationship is built to reduce data redundancy
and to know which Block resides in which Neighborhood and in
which Governorate, etc.
