You have two shapefiles of hiking trails in a national park, each covering different sections of the park. Both shapefiles contain line features representing the trails. Describe the steps to merge these two shapefiles into a single shapefile containing all the hiking trails. A city has two separate shapefiles showing the locations of fire hydrants. One shapefile contains hydrants installed before 2010, and the other contains hydrants installed after 2010. Both are point feature classes. Explain how to combine these into one shapefile showing all fire hydrant locations.
