Getting to Know ArcView GIS

Geographic information systems (GIS) help visualize information in new ways that reveal relationships, patterns, and trends not visible with other popular systems. This book is a nontechnical introduction to GIS technology explaining what it is, how it works, and who uses it. It offers illustrated, step-by-step procedures for using ArcView GIS Version 3.1 software to perform dozens of GIS tasks. The book is full of exercises that can also be worked on by using the software and data provided on the CD-ROM. Readers will come away with a solid understanding of basic GIS concepts and the skills needed to embark on an ArcView GIS project of their own.

In so doing, it serves as a good introduction to vector data analysis.The detailed illustrations and sample software (a CD with a version of ArcView restricted to the data on the CD) enable anybody to follow through this book and work at their leisure. The text is somewhere at a junior high school level in terms of what it assumes, but it is in no way patronizing or simplistic: even graduate students have found it useful.Sometimes follow-on analyses are suggested or sketched, but no problems are given. This is a pity, because students need additional problems to reinforce what they have just learned. Once you work through all the steps that are shown, there’s nothing much else left to do.In a few cases, the…
