Geoprocessing Tools and Techniques

The video tutorial covers geoprocessing, focusing on the use of buffer and clip tools. It explains how to search for tools, use the buffer tool to create a buffer around a feature, and use the clip tool to clip features. The tutorial also highlights the importance of understanding parameters and provides a brief overview of other geoprocessing tools available for exploration.
