Using ArcMap

Back

ESRI ArcMap, part of the suite of integrated applications in ArcGIS Desktop (ArcInfo, ArcEditor, and ArcView) is used to display and query maps, create publication quality hard-copy output; develop custom mapping applications; and perform many other map-based tasks. ArcMap also includes a fully integrated editor that can work with versioned multiuser geodatabases implemented within a RDBMS, personal geodatabases, and shapefiles. ArcMap provides an easy and natural transition from viewing a map to editing its geometry.

Using ArcMap shows you how to immediately put ArcMap to work. Whether you're just beginning with mapping and geographic information systems or a power user, this book makes it easy to find the task you want (from basic to advanced) and shows you how to do it.
