Learn the basics of working with ArcGIS Desktop (ArcMap) in a hands-on learning environment! This course is useful for people who have no prior GIS experience, as well as, current ArcMap users looking to gain additional skills. With a focus on New Hampshire data and applications, participants learn how to use ArcMap to produce attractive, effective maps. In addition, each participant receives their own detailed step-by-step manual to use as a reference after the course is over.
Participants will learn to design maps in ArcMap | import data into ArcMap | add online GIS data to your maps | interact with time-based GIS data | symbolize GIS data | add labels and annotation, query data | use geoprocessing tools: merge/buffer/dissolve | manipulate attribute tables: adding fields/calculating values/joining tables
