BE MORE EFFICIENT
Section 1:
Get to the good stuff quicker
![Page 3: Efficiency](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042815/55836979d8b42a972b8b4cce/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
What do you love to do?
hike
view wildlife
eat out
visit the library
bike riding
watch football
Who wouldn’t enjoy watching me?

But don’t let efficiency become a
treadmill

Don’t forget QGIS!
QGIS has a similar tool called Sextante

The strength of ModelBuilder is
ITERATION
![Page 14: Efficiency](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042815/55836979d8b42a972b8b4cce/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

Section 4:
Play well with others

The strength of FME is
CONVERSION

AUTOMATEw/ CODE
Section 4:
Look really smart with a bit of copying and pasting
![Page 24: Efficiency](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042815/55836979d8b42a972b8b4cce/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
The strength of Coding is
NESTED LOOPScol = 0for row in xrange(dam_sheet.nrows): if row > 0: print dam_sheet.cell_value(row, col) name = dam_sheet.cell_value(row, col)
rows = arcpy.SearchCursor(inputxs) def round_figures(x, n): return round(x, int(n \ - math.ceil(math.\ log10(abs(x))))) for row in rows: station = str(round_figures\ (row.ProfileM, 7)) flow = str(row.Breach_Flow)

If this, then that.use user input to guide

You can also run things in different
programs

Version Control
Collaborate with co-
workers
Collaborate with interwebs

Make liberal use of Windows Scheduler to run scripts
I may be playing, but my computer
is working

Summary:
1. Efficiency | to end drudgery
2. Automate | learn the tools
3. ModelBuilder | for iteration
4. FME | for conversion
5. Code| for nested loops
