| Getting Better Geocoding Results-Secrets of the Trade | Geocoding is one of the best tricks you can do with GIS. What's not exciting about watching a file of sterile tabular address data suddenly take shape and illustrate themselves on a city map? But mention to a colleague that you're trying your hand at geocoding, and you'll likely see a quick flinch, maybe even a shudder. I've seen veteran ESRI Tech Support staff – people who laugh in the face of projection problems and license server administration – shy away from the topic. Why the drama? Like many subjects, the more you know about geocoding, the more success you'll experience with it. |
| GIS Certification Institute (GISCI) | The GIS Certification Institute (GISCI) is a tax-exempt not-for-profit organization that provides the geographic information systems (GIS) community with a complete certification program. GISCI offers participants from the first early years on the job until retirement a positive method of developing value for professionals and employers in the GIS profession. |
| How Do You Calculate the Distance Between Points? | Problem: You have a set of points (in this example around 220 points, representing different locations). You'd like to know the best way to calculate the distance between points found in this layer and a specific point (other than using the measure tool). i.e. If these points represent cities, you need to know the distance between each of the cities and the capital, for example. |
| LaserMap - Lidar Digital Imagery | Lasermap owns its Optech airborne lidar equipment and has the detailed knowledge of its integration and operation. Lasermap has complete capability to provide fully accurate and detailed lidar digital terrain models and digital imagery.
This knowledge, acquired through more than 10 years of experience, ensures accurate positioning of the airborne survey system and intelligent processing of the data. |
| Merging Multiple Themes into One-A Step by Step Guide | Before embarking on this task, you’ll want to do a little pre-planning. In ArcGIS 9.0, you’ll use an Append function to combine multiple themes (shapefiles, feature classes, etc.) into a single file.* Because you are appending data to an existing file, you will need to designate which are your input themes and which is your output theme. |
| Professional Alliance for GIS and Geosciences | PAGG is a society formed for non-profit educational and scientific purposes. Its purpose is to promote a better understanding of GIS and its technology, and the practical and efficient use of GIS technology in support of the decision-making process throughout the Commonwealth of The Bahamas. |
