Using ArcMap
Order this title
ArcMap, part of the suite of integrated applications in
the ArcGIS Desktop, is used to display and query maps, create
publication-quality hard-copy output, develop custom mapping applications, and
perform many other map-based tasks. ArcMap also includes a fully integrated
editor that can work with versioned spatial databases as well as coverages and
shapefiles. ArcMap provides an easy and natural transition from viewing a map to
editing its geometry.
Using ArcMap shows you how to immediately put ArcMap to work. Whether you’re
just beginning with mapping and geographic information systems (GIS) or you're a
power user, this book makes it easy to find the task you want—from basic to
advanced—and shows you how to do it.
