It also provides a conceptual framework for anyone who supports and secures GIS hardware or software. Senior architecture consultants benefit from the GIS design techniques presented, while GIS managers come away with a better understanding of system architecture and hardware selection criteria. Database considerations such as scale, resolution, coordinate systems, and map projections are discussed. Inc. This course teaches how these complementary technologies interact using ArcCAD commands, terminology, and techniques. This course is intended for experienced AutoCAD users and should not be used as a substitute for AutoCAD training.
Students learn the fundamentals of data automation, database structure, and database management.
These first two days give participants solid skills they can apply to their own applications. Students use multiple Atlas geo files and attribute tables, create thematic maps, manage layers from multiple geo files, perform ring studies, select and query geography and data, combine existing features into new features, and manipulate, calculate, and update data in tables. Statistics windows, add freehand text and graphics, import data from spreadsheets, modify and enhance the page layout, and create subset geo files and tables. Part Two, Spatial Analysis, is presented on the third day and covers the advanced Atlas GIS features for site analysis, territory design, database analysis, and map presentation. Participants acquire hands-on experience and have the opportunity to complete individual projects in their own areas of interest.
