  2. ArcInfo Introduction • ArcGIS is developed by the Environmental Systems Research Institute (ESRI) in California • ESRI is the world leader in the $1.1 billion GIS software market • ArcGIS was traditionally referred to as ArcInfo • Most popular GIS software in the US GIS market • Compared to ArcView ArcGIS offers the high end GIS processing capabilities • Available for many computing platforms such as PCs and servers and under an number of operating systems such as Windows NT, 95, 98, UNIX, and such like. GIS …. ArcGIS Intro Lecture Dr. Steve Ramroop

  3. ESRI GIS Development Arc/Info(coverage model) Versions 1-7 from 1980 – 1999 Arc Macro Language (AML) 160,000 licenses 1,200,000 users as of 2009 ArcGIS(geodatabase model) Version 8.0, …, 10 from 2000 – Python scripting ArcView(shapefile model) Versions 1-3 from 1994 – 1999 Avenue scripting language

  4. ESRI’s website is : www.esri.com • Whole suite of ESRI’s product line is called ARCGIS • GEM L391 will cover the full interface modules for ARCGIS which includes: The new modules • ArcCatalog • ArcMap • ArcToolbox (now included in ArcCatalog, ArcMap) And…. GIS …. ArcGIS Intro Lecture Dr. Steve Ramroop

  5. The traditional modules: • Arc • ArcEdit • ArcPlot • INFO • AML GIS …. ArcGIS Intro Lecture Dr. Steve Ramroop

  7. ArcInfo 8.0 introduced Desktop ArcInfo • Present ArcGIS version is Version 9.1 • ArcGIS contains the traditional ArcInfo software which is already known to many users • Desktop ArcGIS is made up of: • ArcCatalog: used to organize spatial data, preview coverages and shapefiles, list data tables, establish links between ArcInfo and third party databases, and maintain the data • ArcMap: Used to create professional maps using a wide array of symbols and fonts • ArcToolbox: Provides a menu system for accessing many of the commands in ArcInfo GIS …. ArcGIS Intro Lecture Dr. Steve Ramroop

  8. ArcGIS is a family of software products that form a complete GIS built on industry standards that provide exceptional, yet easy to use, capabilities right out of the box. ArcGIS is a complete, single, integrated system for geographic data creation, management, integration, and analysis. • Much more than a specialized offering for a small niche of specialists, ArcGIS is designed as a scalable system that can be deployed in every organization, from an individual desktop to a globally distributed network of people. GIS …. ArcGIS Intro Lecture Dr. Steve Ramroop

  10. ArcGIS is a scalable system of software for geographic data for every organization--from an individual to a globally distributed network of people Users can deploy multiple ArcGIS clients (ArcReader, ArcView, ArcEditor, ArcInfo), mobile clients (ArcPad), and ArcGIS servers (ArcSDE and ArcIMS) to meet their needs for scalable GIS solutions. GIS …. ArcGIS Intro Lecture Dr. Steve Ramroop

  11. Geo-Processing Toolbox tools linked together using the model builder to automate data processing

  12. Arc Globe • An alternative display to ArcMap • Design to rapidly display image files and to zoom in rapidly from a global view to a local view • Works on a spherical earth (not spheroidal)

  14. License manager The license manager keeps track of number of simultaneous users and limits them to allowable number. If you can’t get an available license in LRC, ask the proctor to restart the ArcGIS license manager. At USU contact Paul Rew to get the license manager restarted paul.rew@usu.edu. At UNL Jim Hines (472-6708, jhines2@unl.edu ) or Gregg Hutchison (472-5436) at room 226 is the contact person  to restart the ArcGIS license manager.

  18. ArcGIS provides flexibility when configuring a system since it is modular and scalable. It is modular in the sense that you acquire the system in pieces. • ArcReader is a free, easy-to-use product that allows anyone to view, explore, and print published map files. • ArcView includes all the functionality of ArcReader and provides data visualization, query, analysis, and integration capabilities along with the ability to create and edit simple geographic features. • ArcEditor includes all the functionality of ArcView and adds the power to create and edit features in a multiuser geodatabase. • ArcInfo includes all the functionality of ArcEditor and adds advanced geoprocessing capabilities. GIS …. ArcGIS Intro Lecture Dr. Steve Ramroop

  19. ArcSDE is an application server that facilitates storing and managing spatial data (raster, vector, and survey) in a DBMS and makes the data available to many kinds of applications. • ArcIMS provides the foundation for distributing high-end geographic information systems (GIS) and mapping services via the Internet. • ArcPad software is mobile mapping and geographic information system (GIS) technology. • ArcInfo Workstation provides geoprocessing via the classic user interface (ARC, ARCEDIT, ARCPLOT, ARC Macro Language [AML], and more).

  21. The Geodatabase • A geodatabase (short for geographic database) is a physical store of geographic information inside a database management system (DBMS). The diagram below illustrates a sample geodatabase. GIS …. ArcGIS Intro Lecture Dr. Steve Ramroop

  22. Geodatabase example: GIS …. ArcGIS Intro Lecture Dr. Steve Ramroop

  23. The geodatabase offers many advantages over its predecessor (the coverage model): • All data (vector, raster, address, measures, CAD, etc.) is stored together in a commercial off-the-shelf DBMS. • The geodatabase allows multiuser access to continuous databases through the use of versioning and long transactions. • Support for intelligent features, rules, and relationships. The geodatabase data model supports, as standard, a rich collection of objects (rows in a database table) and features (objects with geometry). • Geodatabases can be accessed via the standard menus and tools in ArcCatalog, ArcMap, and ArcToolbox.

  24. ArcGIS Extensions: • The following ArcGIS Extension products add specialized tools and functionality to ArcView, ArcEditor and ArcInfo. • ArcGIS Business Analyst Coming Soon! • ArcGIS Spatial Analyst • ArcGIS 3D Analyst • ArcGIS Geostatistical Analyst • ArcGIS Survey Analyst New! • ArcGIS Tracking Analyst New! • ArcGIS Military Analyst New! • ArcGIS Publisher • ArcGIS StreetMap • ArcGIS Schematics • ArcScan for ArcGIS New! • ArcPress for ArcGIS • Job Tracking for ArcGIS (JTX) New! • MrSID Encoder for ArcGIS GIS ….
