ArcGIS Desktop ®

Tools for Authoring, Editing, and Analyzing Geographic Information

ArcGIS Desktop ®

What Is GIS? ArcGIS® Desktop is software that enables you to discover patterns, relationships, and trends in your data that are not readily apparent in databases, spreadsheets, or statistical packages. Beyond showing you your data as points on a map, ArcGIS Desktop gives you the power to manage and integrate your data, perform advanced analysis, model and automate operational processes, and display your results on professional-quality maps.

A geographic information system (GIS) is an integrated collection of computer software and data used to view and manage information about geographic places, analyze spatial relationships, and model spatial processes. A GIS provides a framework for gathering and organizing spatial data and related information so that it can be displayed and analyzed.

Why GIS? GIS gives you tools to analyze your data and see the results in the form of powerful, interactive maps that reveal how things work together, allowing you to make the most informed decisions possible.

Patient Addresses

Seeing the data on a map powered by GIS instead of a spreadsheet allows for better decisions, faster.  In this example of an infectious disease outbreak, ArcGIS Desktop was used to identify gathering locations, such as schools and churches, with the greatest likelihood of attracting people who are already infected. This model and resulting map provided public health officials with a list of high-priority locations that would need to be closed to prevent the spread of the disease.

Tools for Authoring, Editing, and Analyzing Geographic Information “GIS has proven itself over and over again as a technology tool for many facets of our business. It’s more than just computer mapping. It’s real data integration, analysis, and visualization.”

Answer Questions, Test Predictions, and Examine Relationships With a rich analysis framework, including readyto-use tools and the ability to build process models, scripts, and complete workflows, ArcGIS Desktop gives you the power to better answer questions, test predictions, and examine relationships in your data. You can use ArcGIS Desktop to answer questions such as • Where are my customers? • Where should I put new stores or facilities? • Who is impacted in an emergency? • What is the best way to respond to a power outage?

Coinstar® uses ArcGIS Desktop to find new machine sites that will maximize the population served and minimize the risk of cannibalization to existing machines.

• What are the highest traffic areas of a city? • Which land parcels owe taxes? • What is the environmental impact of a new development?

ESRI ArcGIS is a complete geographic information system that lets you author, serve, and use geographic knowledge. Within this system, ArcGIS Desktop is the platform that small and large organizations alike employ to create, edit, and analyze their data.

Why ArcGIS Desktop?

Create, Edit, and Ensure the Quality of Your Geographic Data Manipulate data with a minimum number of clicks and automate your editing workflow with the ArcGIS Desktop powerful suite of editing tools. Advanced editing and coordinate geometry (COGO) tools simplify your data design, input, and cleanup. Multiuser editing support makes it possible for multiple users to edit your geodatabase at the same time, facilitating data sharing between departments, organizations, and field staff.

Disconnect from your database and edit in the field.

Perform the Complete Cartographic Production Process within Your GIS Easily create professional-quality, publication-ready maps with ArcGIS Desktop software’s simple wizards, predefined map templates, extensive suite of map elements, and advanced drawing and symbolization tools. The comprehensive set of cartographic tools in ArcGIS Desktop automates many aspects of cartography, making map production a less time-consuming task. Your completed maps can be saved, printed, exported, and embedded in other documents or applications.

Produce customized, accurate, publication-quality maps with ArcGIS Desktop.

Manage Your Data More Efficiently With support for more than 70 data formats, you can easily integrate all types of data for visualization and analysis with ArcGIS Desktop. Create databases, define database schemas, and administer the integrity of databases with an extensive set of geographic, tabular, and metadata management, creation, and organization tools.

ArcGIS Desktop is a universal data integration system.

Get Started Immediately with Ready-to-Use Data You can begin your visualization and analysis right away with the included ESRI® Data & Maps Media Kit, which is updated annually and preconfigured to work specifically with ESRI software. The ESRI Data & Maps Media Kit includes more than 24 GB of data including • Basemap and thematic MXDs for Canada, Europe, Mexico, the United States, and the world • Commercial data from Tele Atlas, AND Mapping, DMTI Spatial, WorldSat, EarthSat, EuroGeographics, Michael Bauer Research, World Wildlife Fund, SIGSA, and ESRI • Ninety-meter Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) dataset • All levels of U.S. Census geography and ZIP Codes™ • TIGER 2000-based StreetMap™ USA data ArcGIS Online includes optimized, ready-to-use content and capabilities including 2D maps, 3D globes, and reference layers. ArcGIS Online services are always available on the Web so that users with Internet access can use these services at any time. SM

Customize ArcGIS Desktop to Meet Your Unique Needs Easily customize the user interface by adding and removing buttons and menu items or docking toolbars. Develop custom GIS desktop applications with ArcGIS Engine, which is available through the ESRI Developer Network (EDN ). ArcGIS Engine provides application programming interfaces (APIs) for COM, .NET, Java™, and C++; detailed documentation; and a series of high-level visual components that make it easy for even the casual programmer to build an ArcGIS application.

Use the ESRI Data & Maps Media Kit and ArcGIS Online maps, along with your own data, as your basemap framework for deploying your GIS applications.
