Pivvot Layers are the visual representations of the datasets you have loaded into the system. A filter presents a focused view of a layer in a map. By limiting the visibility of features in a layer, you can reveal what's important. For example, you might create a filter on a transportation layer so only railroads and public roads appear on the map.
Using filters you can create one or many purpose built layers from a single dataset.
