One CD-ROM contains a fully functional copy of ArcView 8 software with a trial period of 180 days, the other contains exercise data. Both CD-ROMs must be installed to do the exercises in the book.

"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.

This book provides a general overview of building and deploying sophisticated custom applications and solutions using ArcGIS Server. ArcGIS Server is a platform for building enterprise GIS applications that are centrally managed, support multiple users, include advanced GIS functionality, and are built using industry standards. ArcGIS Server provides the framework for developers to create focused GIS Web applications and services that can be utilized by clients, including browser-based applications, ArcGIS Engine applications, and ArcGIS DesktopproductsArcInfo, ArcEditor, and ArcView. The entire ArcGIS system is builtwith and extended by software components called ArcObjects, which are at the core of all ArcGIS products. Server administrators who manage an ArcGIS Server system will find this volume useful. The book also includes several scenarios illustrating different types of applications that can be developed using ArcGIS Server.

This book is a useful reference for both new and advanced users of ESRI ArcGIS 3D Analyst, one of the available extensions to the ArcGIS Desktop products ArcInfo, ArcEditor, and ArcView. ArcGIS 3D Analyst is a three-dimensional visualization and analysis extension that enables you to create surface models from several input data sources. ArcGIS 3D Analyst also adds two specialized three-dimensional viewing applications, ArcScene and ArcGlobe, that extend the capabilities of ArcGIS Desktop.This book provides a quick-start tutorial to get an overview of how to drape an image over a surface and perform the basics with ArcGIS 3D Analyst. It also provides concise, step-by-step, fully illustrated examples.

This study guide meets a growing demand for effective GIS training by combining ArcGIS tutorials and self-study exercises that start with the basics and progress to more difficult functionality. Presented in a step-by-step format, the book can be adapted to a reader's specific training needs, from a classroom of graduate students to individaul study. Readers learn to use a range of GIS functionality from creating maps and collecting data to using geoprocessing tools and models for advanced analysis. the authors have incorporated three proven learning methods: scripted exercises that use detailed step-by-step insturctions and result graphics, Your Turn exercises that require users to perform tasks without steo-by-step instructions, and exercise assignements that pose real-world problem scenarios. A fully functioning, 180-day trial version of ArcView 9.2 software, data for working through the tutorials, and Web-based teacher resources are also included.

This book is an excellent reference for users of ESRI ArcGIS Survey Analyst, one of the available extensions to the ArcGIS Desktop products ArcInfo, ArcEditor, and ArcView. ArcGIS Survey Analyst enables users to store, manage, and analyze survey measurements and coordinates collected from a variety of sources. ArcGIS Survey Analyst allows survey computations to be stored in a geodatabase and provides the ability to associate survey data with geographic information system (GIS) features. ArcGIS Survey Analyst adds a specialized Survey Explorer dialog, which provides a means to enter and edit survey data.Begin with the quick-start tutorial for an overview of executing basic ArcGIS Survey Analyst functions. If you prefer, jump right in and experiment on your own. The book also includes concise, step-by-step, fully illustrated examples.

This book is an excellent reference for users of ESRI ArcGIS Geostatistical Analyst, one of the available extensions to the ArcGIS Desktop products ArcInfo, ArcEditor, and ArcView. ArcGIS Geostatistical Analyst enables users to predict the magnitude or quantity of some phenomena across, above, or below a landscape. Predictions of such phenomena are made using measured sample points taken at various locations in the study site. ArcGIS Geostatistical Analyst creates the most accurate continuous surface possible from those measured samples, allowing an individual or team to make more effective decisions.Begin with the quick-start tutorial for an overview of ArcGIS Geostatistical Analyst basics. If you prefer, jump right in and experiment on your own. The book also includes concise, step-by-step, fully illustrated examples.
