Pengantar ArcGIS 9.3

Pengantar ArcGIS 9.3

The  ESRI  company  web  site  refers  to  ArcGIS  as  a  "scalable  system  of  software  for geographic data  creation, management, integration, analysis, and dissemination for  every organization, from an individual to a globally distributed network of people.




Under  this  software  architecture  users  can  have  access  to  various  "ArcGIS  clients" (ArcView,  ArcEditor,  ArcInfo)  and  "servers"  (ArcSDE,  and  ArcIMS).  The  ArcGIS "DESKTOP"  provides  the  user  access  to  different  clients  when  the  data  files  are local.
Because ArcGIS is a "scalable" GIS software solution, the modular can be added when the user needs additional functions.
ArcView  9.x  consist  of  three  desktop  applications:  ArcMap  for  display  and  query, ArcCatalog  for  geographic  and  tabular  data  management,  and  ArcToolbox  for  basic data conversion.

ArcEditor provides  the  data  editing  functions  required  in  enterprise  settings.  ArcEditor includes the display and query function of ArcView and adds the ability to edit topological relationships in a geodatabase.

ArcInfo is  the  most  comprehensive  product  in  terms  of  functions.  In  addition  to  the display  and  query  function  of  ArcView  and the  editing  functions  of  ArcEditor,  ArcInfo provides  the  geoprocessing  and  data  conversion  required  of  a  complete  GIS  software solution.  ArcInfo  contains  both  the  ArcInfo  "Desktop"  and  "Workstation"  applications. Often referred to as user interfaces, these two applications provides the user with either the classic command line interface (arc, arcedit, arcplot, aml) as well as the now more familiar ArcView applications (ArcMap, ArcCatalog, and ArcToolbox).


Like all Windows programs, the ArcGIS applications can be started by selecting START > PROGRAMS > ARCGIS and the pick the application you want (ArcMap, ArcCatalog, ArcToolbox), or ArcInfo Workstation and its various modules.
