Using ArcCatalog
Order this title
ArcCatalog, part of the suite of integrated
applications in the ArcGIS Desktop, makes accessing and managing geographic data
simple. You can easily find the data you need, quickly review and display its
contents, and read or create documentation (metadata). You can also manage
coverages, shapefiles, and other spatial data stored in folders on local disks
or in relational databases that are available on your network.
With Using ArcCatalog, you can get to work right away. This book makes it
easy to identify a task you need to perform and then provides concise,
step-by-step, illustrated instructions to help you get it done.
You'll learn how to
Explore geographic data and its attributes
View and create metadata
Modify the data's properties
Add and delete attributes
Link geographic features to attributes stored in separate tables
You begin by following a quick-start tutorial, which walks you through the
typical tasks you'll encounter when preparing your data for a project. It then
shows how you can use ArcCatalog, ArcMap, and ArcToolbox together to make your
project a success. If you prefer, jump right in and experiment with ArcCatalog
on your own. When you have questions, you will find the answers inside.
