Introduction to ArcView 8.x Workshop
ILGARD offers a three-day course using ArcGIS Desktop 8.x
to learn general display and data investigation techniques
while learning how to acquire, process and create spatial
data layers. By giving a conceptual overview and hands-on
experience using the software, this three-day course enables
participants to quickly take advantage of ArcGIS Desktop's
powerful display and analysis capabilities (using ArcMap,
ArcCatalog and ArcToolbox). Students will become familiar
with the ArcGIS Desktop 8.x graphical user interface (GUI)
and use ArcGIS Desktop 8.x to create, edit, display, query,
and analyze geographic and tabular data (including the Personal
GeoDatabase), and produce hard copy and digital map products.
ArcGIS Desktop 8.x can be used for address matching, site
selection, mapping location of sampling locations, permit
notification, emergency response coordination, data visualization
