"Using ArcMap" explains how to perform map-based tasks ranging from putting geographic information on a map to building interactive displays that link charts, tables, reports and photos to data. It also discusses ways to use ArcMap's editor to edit, create and update data and techniques for developing custom map-based applications. 800 color photos, 40 line drawings, 25 charts, 35 tables, 70 maps.

Switching to ArcGIS Pro from ArcMap is an invaluable resource for those looking to migrate from ArcMap to ArcGIS Pro. Rather than teach Pro from the start, this book focuses on the difference between Pro and ArcMap for a more rapid adjustment to common workflows.

This book is a useful reference for both new and advanced users of ESRI ArcCatalog, software that simplifies accessing and managing geographic data. You can easily find the data you need, quickly review and display its contents, and read or create documentation (metadata). You can also manage coverages, shapefiles, and other spatial data stored in folders on local disks or in relational databases available on your network. Begin with the quick-start tutorial, which explains the typical tasks encountered when preparing your data for a project. If you prefer, jump right in and experiment on your own with ArcCatalog. The book also includes concise, step-by-step, fully illustrated answers to your examples.

ArcGIS Desktop lets you perform the full range of GIS tasks - from geodatabase design and management to data editing; from map query to cartographic production and sophisticated geographic visualization and analysis. It is where the core work of GIS occurs. This book gives you an overview of the ArcGIS Desktop system and shows you how to access the basic functions of the software. This chapter introduces ArcMap, ArcCatalog, and ArcToolbox - the basic framework of ArcGIS Desktop - including the structure of each, the functions each performs, and how they're used together. The book covers the functions most people will use, plus a number of specialized tasks that you may need for specific applications. It illustrates the various tasks you can perform, shows where to access them in the user interface, and shows how to get started with a particular task using basic or default settings.

From working with map layers to analyzing spatial data, GIS Tutorial for ArcGIS Desktop 10.8 helps users explore GIS concepts, apply ArcGIS software, and instill GIS skills.

Introducing Geographic Information Systems with ArcGIS A unique approach to learning and teaching GIS, updated for ArcGIS 9.3 Introducing Geographic Information Systems with ArcGIS, Second Edition serves as both an easy-to-understand introduction to GIS and a hands-on manual for the ArcGIS 9.3 software. This combination theory-workbook approach is designed to quickly bring the reader from GIS neophyte to well-informed GIS user from both a general knowledge and practical viewpoint. Replacing the traditional separate texts on theory and application, the book integrates a broad introduction to GIS with a software-specific workbook for ESRIs ArcGIS in a single comprehensive volume.?Easy to read, interesting, and at times quite amusing, the new edition is even more accessible to a wide variety of readers. Each chapter presents two mutually supporting sections: Overview- a discussion of theory and ideas relating to GIS, laying the groundwork for spatial analysis Step-by-step instructions on how to use ArcGIS software. There are sixty exercises and nine review exercises throughout the book, covering most of the topics students need to gain GIS jobs or continue work in GIS or GIScience Complete with a CD-ROM containing data for working out all of the exercises, this Second Edition provides an updated examination of file geodatabases including vector, raster, and 3D GIS with terrains. On completion of this text, students will have acquired in-depth understanding of GIS theory and how to operate the ArcGIS software. They will have been exposed, through additional hands-on demonstrations, to virtually everything about GIS that supports spatial analysis. Written by an author with over thirty years of experience writing software manuals, Introducing Geographic Information Systems with ArcGIS, Second Edition puts readers on the quick road to mastery of GIS.

Readers will understand how to find, evaluate, and analyze data to solve location-based problems. This guide covers practical issues such as copyrights, cloud computing, online data portals, volunteered geographic information, and international data with supplementary exercises.
