The term "snapping" in SMS can refer to a couple different situations in SMS. All involve the use of the Map module and how feature objects align with other objects.

Snapping Feature Objects within a Coverage

Within a coverage, the Clean tool can be used to connect nodes of arcs together. This can fix cases where the nodes are not quite touching and thus preventing a fully enclosed arc for a polygon.

Snapping Feature Objects to Another Coverage

In some situations, it is necessary to create feature objects that line up with feature objects on another coverage.

Snap Preview of Feature Objects to a Geometry

The Snap Preview option allows seeing how feature objects on a coverage will align with a the elements or cells on a geometry during a model run.
