Chapter Overview
ArcGIS Desktop
– New tools in ArcGIS 10 that are really cool
– Some “oldies but goodies” you might not have seen (or don’t remember that you’ve seen)
A little aside into Excel….
– Cleaning up data before you bring it in to GIS(How do I get rid of those $!@*! Characters???) and other tricks to clean up your data
ArcGIS Explorer (if time allows)
– Really?? You can do THAT with ArcGIS Explorer?

• New tools in ArcGIS 10.1 that are really cool
• Geotagged photos (with Table Attachments and HTML popups)
• Labeling contours with Mapplex (not new, but now free) and the Contour annotation tool
• StreetView in ArcMap (and using Add-ins)
• Some “oldies but goodies” you might not have seen (or don’t remember that you’ve seen)
• How many wells are in each parish in Louisiana? A simple (but useful) spatial analysis example
• Linear referencing. What is it and why would I ever care?

Contour Annotation
To blank out the line behind the text, we still have to use annotation.

A Simple Spatial Analysis Example
TASK:
– Find parishes in Louisiana where there are a lot of wells
What information is available?
– Just a spreadsheet with well locations, and parish polygons
![Page 18: GIS Tips and Tricks](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081622/613d4147736caf36b75b28a4/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)

Import the points
from the Excel
spreadsheet.
Summarize the
well table by
parish.
Spatially join the
parish attributes
to the wells.

Linear Referencing
Additional structure, sits on top of lines
Lines become routes.
Events (point and linear) are displayed on top of the routes, in measures of distances away from the beginning of the route rather than in x,ys.
Events are not feature classes. They are just attribute tables.
![Page 28: GIS Tips and Tricks](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081622/613d4147736caf36b75b28a4/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)

Displaying Events
Similar to Display XY Data, but uses measures along the line rather than actual x,y locations
![Page 33: GIS Tips and Tricks](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081622/613d4147736caf36b75b28a4/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)

Create and Manage Routes
Make room for Measures (“M Values”) in the feature class when you create it.
Or use the Create Routes tool
