1. Welcome to DEP’s GIS Workshop Series Workshop 3 Introduction to ArcGIS Desktop 1

2. What is ArcGIS Desktop? ArcGIS Desktop is a suite of GIS software products used in DEP. The components are: ◦ArcCatalog ◦ArcMap ◦ArcToolbox ◦Extensions Introduction to ArcGIS Desktop 2

3. Although each product serves a unique purpose, there is a great deal of overlap among them. For example: ArcToolbox can be opened and utilized in both ArcCatalog and ArcMap Both ArcCatalog and ArcMap can display GIS data and table data Extensions can be activated in either ArcCatalog or ArcMap Introduction to ArcGIS Desktop 3

4. ArcCatalog Acts as ArcGIS Desktop “Manager” Searches For, Organizes, Creates and Displays Spatial Data Creates, Edits and Displays Metadata Can be used concurrently with ArcMap to drag and drop GIS files into your ArcMap document Introduction to ArcGIS Desktop 4

6. 6 Class Exercise 1. Open ArcCatalog 2. Navigate to Database Connections 3. Double click on 10.18.8.60.depgis@depview_dc.sde 4. Single click on depgis.DEP.DEP_Property 5. Just above your map view, click the Preview tab. 6. At the bottom of your map view, choose “Table” rather than “Geography” 7. Choose the Metadata tab to view metadata.

7. ArcMap Workhorse of GIS Product Suite Replaces ArcView 3 Used to view, edit, and analyze spatial data Has many cartographic features to create simple or complex maps Can customize the display of your data Introduction to ArcGIS Desktop 7
