Project files are included which already have the inter-disciplinary data layers loaded as theme coverages. We have provided the GIS ArcExplorer version 1.1 software so that a user with a compatible operating system can down-load it to their own system and use it to display the coverages provided. The user must have the Adobe Acrobat software installed to read the ArcExplorer manual. Separate project files are included for both ArcExplorer and ArcView. To use the ArcView project file the user must define this variable.
All data has an attached metadata file for source and quality definition.
All data with attributes can be queried to display as much as is available in the individual records. If the user drive has a different designation, the user must edit the project file. The ArcExplorer user manual has detailed instructions for editing the project file on page 64. The project files have links to the data layers provided on the CD-ROM and these links can be switched on and off. Instructions for set-up on the users computer system are included in the ArcExplorer user manual.
