ArcGIS Intro Lecture Dr. Steve Ramroop 7 – –ArcInfo 8.0 introduced Desktop ArcInfo – –Present ArcGIS version is Version 10.2.1 – –ArcGIS contains the traditional ArcInfo software which is already known to many users – –Desktop ArcGIS is made up of: ArcCatalog: used to organize spatial data, preview coverages and shapefiles, list data tables, establish links between ArcInfo and third party databases, and maintain the data ArcMap: Used to create professional maps using a wide array of symbols and fonts ArcToolbox: Provides a menu system for accessing many of the commands in ArcInfo

8. 7/3/2015 GEM 3391 GIS …. ArcGIS Intro Lecture Dr. Steve Ramroop 8 – –ArcGIS is a family of software products that form a complete GIS built on industry standards that provide exceptional, yet easy to use, capabilities right out of the box. ArcGIS is a complete, single, integrated system for geographic data creation, management, integration, and analysis. – –Much more than a specialized offering for a small niche of specialists, ArcGIS is designed as a scalable system that can be deployed in every organization, from an individual desktop to a globally distributed network of people.

10. 7/3/2015 GEM 3391 GIS …. ArcGIS Intro Lecture Dr. Steve Ramroop 10 – –ArcGIS is a scalable system of software for geographic data for every organization--from an individual to a globally distributed network of people Users can deploy multiple ArcGIS clients (ArcReader, ArcView, ArcEditor, ArcInfo), mobile clients (ArcPad), and ArcGIS servers (ArcSDE and ArcIMS) to meet their needs for scalable GIS solutions.

14. License manager The license manager keeps track of number of simultaneous users and limits them to allowable number. If you can’t get an available license in LRC, ask the proctor to restart the ArcGIS license manager. At USU contact Paul Rew to get the license manager restarted paul.rew@usu.edu. At UNL Jim Hines (472- 6708, jhines2@unl.edu ) or Gregg Hutchison (472-5436) at room 226 is the contact person to restart the ArcGIS license manager.paul.rew@usu.edujhines2@unl.edu

It is modular in the sense that you acquire the system in pieces. – –ArcReader is a free, easy-to-use product that allows anyone to view, explore, and print published map files. – –ArcView includes all the functionality of ArcReader and provides data visualization, query, analysis, and integration capabilities along with the ability to create and edit simple geographic features. – –ArcEditor includes all the functionality of ArcView and adds the power to create and edit features in a multiuser geodatabase. – –ArcInfo includes all the functionality of ArcEditor and adds advanced geoprocessing capabilities.

19. 7/3/2015 GEM 3391 GIS …. ArcGIS Intro Lecture Dr. Steve Ramroop 19 – –ArcSDE is an application server that facilitates storing and managing spatial data (raster, vector, and survey) in a DBMS and makes the data available to many kinds of applications. – –ArcIMS provides the foundation for distributing high-end geographic information systems (GIS) and mapping services via the Internet. – –ArcPad software is mobile mapping and geographic information system (GIS) technology. – –ArcInfo Workstation provides geoprocessing via the classic user interface (ARC, ARCEDIT, ARCPLOT, ARC Macro Language [AML], and more).

23. 7/3/2015 GEM 3391 GIS …. ArcGIS Intro Lecture Dr. Steve Ramroop 23 – –The geodatabase offers many advantages over its predecessor (the coverage model): All data (vector, raster, address, measures, CAD, etc.) is stored together in a commercial off-the-shelf DBMS. The geodatabase allows multiuser access to continuous databases through the use of versioning and long transactions. Support for intelligent features, rules, and relationships. The geodatabase data model supports, as standard, a rich collection of objects (rows in a database table) and features (objects with geometry). Geodatabases can be accessed via the standard menus and tools in ArcCatalog, ArcMap, and ArcToolbox.
