GIS I: ArcMap Introduction
| Workshop description |
This is an introductory level, instructor-led workshop. This hands-on session will teach you how to get around in ArcMap, along with some foundational geographic information systems (GIS) concepts. Work through step-by-step exercises in ArcMap, and look at how ArcCatalog can help you manage spatial data. Become familiar with navigational tools, and explore data from both the spatial and tabular side. Customize and save data settings and displays, and learn to prepare data for presentation, i.e how to make a simple map. Participants may also be interested in attending: GIS I: Empower Hour, GIS I: Finding GIS Data on the Web and GIS II: Mapping Your Data. |

We highly recommend that you attend
prerequisite workshops, listed on the right,
since familiarity with the skills and concepts
taught in them is essential to benefit fully
from subsequent workshops.
However, if you have independently learned
the skills and concepts of the required
workshop(s), your "equivalent skills" will be
accepted as a substitute for attending the
prerequisite workshop(s).
To help you determine your skill level,
click the workshop titles on the right for
descriptions which outline the topics taught in
each workshop and that are assumed in later
sessions. You are expected to know the commands
and concepts listed within the descriptions for
the prerequisite workshop. In most cases, you
can also refer to workshop handouts and other
helpful materials from the workshop
description page.
In addition to any specific prerequisites
listed, you should have, as a minimum, basic
computing skills.
