Multi-Part Features Multi-part features A multi-part feature is composed of different spatially separated parts defined by a single set of attributes. Zeno Mobile supports multi-part polygons and polylines. Multi-parts are often used to describe objects that can be grouped, such as land parcels with the same owner or islands of the same archipelago.
