This course provides the foundation for understanding what GIS is (Geographic Information System), what your business can do with it, and how others are using it. Learn the basic functions of a GIS, and why a GIS database is so powerful. Learn to create coordinate systems and map projections while realizing their business value. In course exercises, you work with ArcMap to visualize geographic data, create maps, query a GIS database, perform spatial analysis using common analysis tools, and solve geographic problems using a systematic approach. This class will allow you to easily move on to other more advanced ArcGIS Desktop courses.
