Learning ArcGIS Geodatabase
An all-in-one start-up kit to author, manage, and administer ArcGIS geodatabases
Overview
Covers the basics of building Geodatabases, using ArcGIS, from scratch Model the Geodatabase to an optimal state using the various optimization techniques Packed with real-world examples showcasing ArcGIS Geodatabase to build mapping applications in web, desktop, and mobile
In Detail
ArcGIS is an industry standard for geospatial development and management. A geodatabase is the database used to store and manage the spatial data.
Learning ArcGIS Geodatabases offers a comprehensive working and practical experience for readers who are interested in knowing about ArcGIS. The initial chapters guide you through authoring geodatabases and creating a geodatabase schema and datasets. Then, the book focuses extensively on modeling and optimizing geodatabases.
Finally, you will be able to work comfortably with datasets, annotations, and relationship classes, making it easier to migrate from a legacy database to an ArcGIS geodatabase.
What you will learn from this book
Explore the benefits of geodatabases with practical illustrations Work with geodatabase datasets covering feature classes, tables, relationship classes, coverage, and annotations Model your geodatabase by creating a sturdy design that can sustain large edits and decrease maintenance Discover various tools to optimize queries and response time, which will help you to fine-tune your geodatabase Utilize Python scripting to author your geodatabase programmatically Set up and configure a full-fledged networked enterprise geodatabase using ArcSDE technology Add programming flavors to your geodatabase using Python
Approach
This is a solution-based book, showcasing the real power of ArcGIS Geodatabase by following a real-world, example-based approach
Who this book is written for
This book is aimed at geospatial developers who want to work with ArcGIS geodatabases as well as manage them. Having knowledge of building a geodatabase from scratch isn’t a must; Learning ArcGIS Geodatabases is ideal for those who want to use ArcGIS geodatabase for the first time, or for those who want to migrate from their existing legacy database to a geodatabase.

fundamental operations on geographic databases Esri, the mapping company, often sponsors hackathons, at least in Los Angeles, but I am sure elsewhere too. They confer prizes on those hackers who can use their ArcGIS database. As you can see in this book, it differs from a general purpose SQL database, or a noSQL database, for that matter. The focus on location is Esri’s raison d’etre. One incentive for reading the text is to get up to speed on ArcGIS, prior to a hackathon. A competitive advantage when you often only have 2.5 days of…
Easy to follow step-by-step tutorials guide your learning Overall I like the easy-to-follow tutorials, which provide both a clear introduction to the structure and utility of ESRI’s geodatabase model and exposes the reader to many of the advanced functions accessible within this data format. I especially like how well the author explained attribute and spatial indexing. The chapter on programming geodatabases through the Python GUI will likely leave those without much background in either Python, programming or command line interfaces – confused but…
Simple and Effective Guide to Geodatabases This book is a simple but very effective guide to creating both file and enterprise ESRI Geodatabases. For someone like me, who has created traditional relational databases before, ESRI’s Geodatabase was a mystery. Nasser made it graspable enough to not only build a scale-able, secure, and ‘normalized’ Geodatabase but, in his latest book (Javascript API one–November 2014), he is guiding us to actually use his ‘Bestoraunt’ Geodatabase in a web application.One of the best things about this…
