Merge Matching Areas

Merge areas that share edges, feature acronyms and attributes. A single new area is created and the original areas are deleted. The merged area is assigned a new feature object ID but the acronym and attributes remain the same.

Areas that are in the selection but which do not match other areas are unchanged.
