The utilization of ESRI's ArcGIS software greatly facilitates the management of cultural resources on Federal lands. Correlation between archaeological sites and environmental variables can be rapidly accomplished through the analysis of both vector and raster data sets. The ability to join multiple feature classes based on spatial location has greatly aided the identification of areas of high,...

This paper describes the use of ArcGIS and the 3D Analyst extension for the integration of multiple petroleum datasets as part of research undertaken by the University of Newcastle upon Tyne, UK, on behalf of Shell International Exploration and Production. The integration of datasets from both surface and subsurface application areas is essential to present a complete picture for decision-makin...

In traditional image production workflows, imagery is processed in multiple steps, with the imagery being sampled multiple times, and being read and written to disk multiple times. This reduces image quality and production efficiency. The linear workflows also are susceptible to bottlenecks when a single parameter in the workflow is not available or needs to be changed. ArcGIS Image server enab...

Geographic data, stored and processed in a GIS, form a conceptual model of the real world. The abstraction of the real world to construct the conceptual model unavoidably results in differentiation between objects of the real world and their representation in GIS (i.e., computer). Since classical set theory is used in conventional GIS software systems to model uncertain real world, the natural ...

Columnar display of linear referenced data portrays dozens of attributes of linear features simultaneously, visually, and interactively. In this genome-like display, each attribute is a layer of an ArcMap data frame. Location is in traditional geographic space and as distance along a measured route created with ArcINFO dynamic segmentation. The resulting display is familiar to investigators acc...

The ability of the GIS to assist governments in displaying and analyzing assets has grown from a utility based application to include many other features, including street and park trees. This paper will describe a case study in the design and implementation of an ArcGIS tree geodatabase model for use in Washington, DC, once known as the City of Trees. The model is used for general analysis as ...

AIM To measure the accessibility to healtcare services in order to reveal their quality and to improve the overall coverage, continuity and other features. MATERIAL AND METHODS We used the software ESRI Arc GIS 9.3, the Network Analyst function and data provided by Ambulance Service of Iasi (A.S.I.) with emergencies statistics for the first four months of 2012, processed by Microsoft Office E...
