  1. Kootenai County GIS Partnership Intro to ArcView Overview - Session 1 Tomorrow the world Today Kootenai County……...

  2. ************************************* ArcView 101 - our own ArcView Course!!! ************************************* Here are the basic parameters of the course: - 15 min+/- for questions/answers/extras from previous session. - 1/2 hr. instruction sessions. - 15 min+/- for questions/answers/extras on current session. - held once or twice per month depending on class participation/interest. - material covered will follow the "Using ArcView GIS" book that comes with ArcView, using chapter format as our session outline.

  3. - additional material from other resources and collective experience. - we WILL share class preparation and presentation (we learn alot by teaching!) - don't freak out, volunteers, buddy system, whatever works. - each session, or "chapter" will be prepared/presented in Powerpoint and will be posted on the County FTP site.

  4. Outline for first session: - Goals and Objectives of these sessions - “education/application/presentation” - Explanation/discussion regarding course parameters and outline (this will evolve!). - Available resources, such as books, ArcView (ESRI) homepage, ESRI Virtual Campus, Liza’s ArcView Course, etc., as well as our own excellent staffs! - Spatial Data used for class purposes (ArcView CD, ESRI site, other GIS Data sites, Kootenai County FTP site up&downloading data, etc.). - Tips and Tricks for preparing Powerpoint presentations (behold the power of print-screen and paste). - Exploring the GUI (ArcView’s Graphical User Interface)

  5. Goals and Objectives of these sessions “education/application/presentation” 1. Introduce participants to as many aspects of GIS as we can collectively uncover, using ArcView as a primary tool. 2. Reinforce learned software skills through examples, review, and, yes, repetition. 3. Get participants up and running! Querying data, making maps and preparing presentations. 4. Other lofty goals?

  6. Explanation/discussion Course parameters and outline - 15 min+/- for questions/answers/extras from previous session. - 1/2 hr. instruction sessions. - 15 min+/- for questions/answers/extras on current session. - held once or twice per month depending on class participation/interest. - we WILL share class preparation and presentation (we learn alot by teaching!) - don't freak out, volunteers, buddy system, whatever works. - each session, or "chapter" will be prepared/presented in Powerpoint and will be posted on the County FTP site.

  7. - material covered will follow the "Using ArcView GIS" book that comes with ArcView, using chapter format as our session outline. - additional material from other resources and collective experience.

  8. Using ArcView GIS Displaying Data - Creating Maps - Adding Tabular data about features to maps - Adding street addresses and other locations to maps - Symbolizing your data - Labeling maps with text and graphics - Charting data - Choosing Map Projections - Laying out and printing maps Querying Data - Getting the attributes of features - Finding features with particular attributes - Finding features near other features - Finding features that fall inside other features - Finding features that intersect other features - Working with the features you find - Aggregating your data Creating Data - Creating and editing spatial data - Using a digitizing tablet Working with other types of data(images and CAD drawings)

  9. Additional Info(taught by the Daves) - working with extensions Other books of interest Introduction to ArcView GIS (resource book from 2-day official course) - ArcView Basics - Getting Data into ArcView - Displaying Themes - Working with Tables - Creating and Editing Shapefiles - Querying and analyzing Themes - Geocoding Addresses - Creating Layouts Using Avenue (taught by the Daves) - beginning - intermediate - advanced ESRI - Virtual Campus

  10. Spatial Data used for class purposes: ArcView CD ESRI site Kootenai County FTP site INSIDE Idaho Idaho Department of Lands Idaho Geographic Information Center Federal Geographic Data Committee - Data Clearinghouse other GIS Data sites

  11. Tips and Tricks for preparing Powerpoint presentations (behold the power of print screen and paste).

  12. "Exploring" the ArcView GUI (Graphical User Interface) 1. Documents 2. Menus 3. Buttons 4. Tools

  13. The basic starting block of ArcView is “the project”. A project is a collection of associated documents that you work with during an ArcView session. Spatial data is not saved in the project, but rather specific references to it (the file path, legends, table joins, etc.) The project window organizes your documents like sub-directories: Views Tables Charts Layouts Scripts Dialogs

  14. Documents - are “windows” that specialize in a type of data, ArcView supports five basic document types (also dialogues and 3dViews)

  15. View - displays map data (themes) containing features Tables - tabular information and feature attributes Layouts - allows integration of other documents into a single “page” for printing. Scripts - programs written in Avenue for customizing and creating custom applications. Charts - graphic representations of tabular data.
