How to Use this Tutorial

 

 

Throughout this tutorial we will make at least 3 different maps which will consist of three views and three corresponding layouts. There will be ISF Reach and Area and a Nav/Access map. If you work through each you should have a pretty good hold on how to do things in ArcView.You need three things to run this tutorial (well, you also need to use your brain, but we'll assume you have one, or can borrow one for a bit):

These Tutorial Pages

I'll assume you know how to use the Web, since you're already here. Just click on highlighted (usually blue & underlined) items to go to another page. Use the BACK key as necessary, etc., etc.

ArcView Software

Sorry, we can't just give you the software. You can read through the tutorial without it, but it'll be much harder to understand and remember what's going on. You can get version 1.0 free (see the Intro page), but it won't work with the tutorial "project" files. You can get more information on ArcView and ESRI here, or go directly to the web site of ESRI, which produces ArcView.

Tutorial Data Sets

The tutorial consists of three major sections. The data will eventually be available for downloading here, but not at this time.

 

Assuming you have ArcView installed and have the sample data sets and images on your hard disk, a CD, or the network drive, start your exploration of ArcView here.

In this little drill you will use ArcView to create maps for access, navigability, and instream flow reservations. I�m assuming you are using ArcView 3.1 (or at least AV3.0a). By using the same basic information, layers for each type of map can be added and displayed one at a time. There are several examples of each type of map in the Appendix � make sure you take a look at these for a basic idea of what the different maps should look like if you have questions. include examples  I�ll use Karluk as the example because we currently have reservations and access issues there and it is a fairly small area.

At the end of this tutorial you will have learned to use ArcView to create maps based on existing data sets. In this tutorial, you will use the CD-ROMs comprising some of the data sets frequently used for our mapping purposes. You will learn how to create maps from these data, and also how to integrate data not included on the CD-ROM.
