Advanced Guide to ArcGIS 9.3
This Advanced Guide to ArcGIS online course follows on from the GIS247 Mastering and Intermediate courses. It is also suitable for ArcGIS users who have been using the software but wish to develop their skills further and discover new functions they might not have used. It provides a comprehensive assessment of the advanced functions (such as geodatabases, remote data access, advanced attribute expressions, label expressions and annotation). Advanced functions for working with spatial features are also explored, such as spatial joins and geoprocessing analysis.
