Up and Running with ArcGIS
3h 13m Beginner Mar 11, 2014


Get up and running with ArcGIS, a true geographic information system (GIS) that allows you to dig into highly accurate geospatial data in a way other mapping applications can't compete with. It's great creating maps, analyzing data for land use studies and other reports, and preparing data for use in an application or database. Let Adam Wilbert show you how to display, analyze, and illustrate geospatial data with ArcGIS. He explores how to import data from multiple sources, manage it with the ArcGIS catalog, and then start making maps. Learn how to lay out your data in the ArcMap component; add symbols, scale bars, and legends; and get your maps out of ArcGIS and into the real world, whether it's for printing or export to another application.
Topics include:
Understanding vector vs. raster data
Modifying metadata
Adding data to a map
Importing data from online providers
Labeling features
Joining data
Clipping data to a study area
Working with map layouts
Creating a legend
Printing and exporting the map to a file
