Is it possible to filter out a single attribute value from data. I am trying to map pit data and although I have streamlined relevant pits using buffer and clipper I still have useless pits which have the same attribute value ie. 2 pits, B pits, and

You can use DuplicateFilter set to the attribute that needs to be unique.

It sounds like you are trying to remove duplicates in the data, where attributes indicate two pits are identical? The DuplicateFilter works for this (filter out the second+ instance of an attribute value), or the Matcher (identify where two+ features share the same attributes and/or geometry).

HI Mark, so I have clipped down the data down to 260 pits , but there are still some pits on the run that should be out of scope, I would like to remove those pits which are 2pits B and C pits. They are not duplicates but they share the same attribute which is their size.
