Length: 13 minutes

 


What is ArcCatalog 02. Introduction to GIS

This lecture provides an introduction to GIS and

presents the concepts upon which this technology is based. Through lectures and exercises, the student will achieve an understanding and appreciation of GIS.


Length: 1 hour, 39 minutes

 


ArcCatalog Interface 03. Finding a Hidden Treasure using ArcGIS

In this tutorial we dive "head first" into ArcGIS

Desktop and use clues to locate a hidden treasure. This fast-pace tutorial supports analytical decision making, data conversion, planning, and analysis

Length: 1 hour, 14 minutes

 


Using ArcCatalog 04. What is ArcGIS?

This lecture provides an overview of ArcGIS, ArcGIS Desktop, ArcGIS On-Line, and ArcGIS mobile. This modest lecture should be particularly useful for students who are new to ArcGIS.


Length: 37 minutes

 


Introduction to ArcMap 05. Exploring ArcCatalog

This tutorial provides students with a comprehensive overview of ArcCatalog. The goal of this tutorial is to explore the ArcCatalog interface and to gain understanding of how to use this application effectively.

 

Length: 1 hour, 14 minutes

 


ArcTool Box Command Line06. Creating a File GeoDatabase (Part 1 of 2)

This lecture is the first part of two-part series on creating a GeoDatabase. During this lecture, students use ArcCatalog to pre-organize spatial assets,

project data to a new spatial referencing system, define the spatial referencing system of an asset,

and create a file Geodatabase.

Length: 1 hour, 7 minutes

 


Digitizing New Features07. Creating a File GeoDatabase (Part 2 of 2) 

This tutorial is the second part of a two-part lecture on creating a GeoDatabase. The goal of this tutorial is to explore models and create a file GeoDatabase that includes domains and subtypes.


 

Length: 1 hour, 29 minutes

 


Tables and Graphs 08. Exploring ArcMap  As part of mastering ArcMap, it is important to be comfortable with the interface and associated components. The goal of

this tutorial is to explore the ArcMap graphical user interface (GUI), discover features and components that comprise this application, and use tools to perform GIS tasks.
Length: 1 hour, 45 minutes

 


Tables and Graphs09. Cartography and Making Maps 

The purpose of this lecture is to provide an introduction to cartography and making maps with ArcGIS Desktop. Cartographers try to find the most effective way of using color, shape, and pattern to communicate information about spatial features and spatial relationships.


Length: 1 hour, 47 minutes

 

 


Tables and Graphs 10. Editing and Creating Data with ArcMap 

The objective of this tutorial is to explore the ArcMap editing environment, editing interface, and key workflows.   Students will use the intuitive, sketch-based editing environment to create and edit feature geometry and attributes.  
Length: 1 hour, 30 minutes

 


Making Maps 11. Exploring Tables, Graphs, and Reports 

This tutorial provides instruction on working with tables, exploring table properties, defining new tables, adding new fields to tables, populating fields with attributes, and generating graphs and reports from tables. The field calculator is explored.

Length: 1 hour, 35 minutes

 


Image Registration12. Image Registration and Transformations  This tutorial provides instruction on georeferencing raster images and performing spatial adjustments and spatial transformation on vector data

.

Length: 1 hour, 1 minute

 


Key Terms and Definitions13. Exploring  Simple Spatial Analysis The objective of this tutorial is to explore spatial analysis concepts and examples using an ArcView license of ArcGIS Destkop. Analytical techniques used to determine the spatial distribution or spatial relationship between spatial variables is often referred to as spatial analysis.
