Database Concepts
(Missouri Spatial Data Information Service, 1999)
. Certain types of DBMS are more suitable for GIS than others because their assumptions fit spatial data better....
Navigating INFO: Introduction and Key Concepts
(Missouri Spatial Data Information Service, 1999)
This presentation looks at the basic of using INFO. INFO is the language of choice for many GIS Algorithms. It is the most accessible programming language in ARC/INFO, as AML cannot access all data and records in a coverage, and ARC cannot establish...
Navigating INFO: Additional Concepts
(Missouri Spatial Data Information Service, 1999)
This presentation looks at some aspects of INFO not covered by previous presentations. They include creating and using arrays, cross-tabulation, redefined keys, alternate directories, displaying text with INFO, purging from large files, loading...
GAP
(Missouri Spatial Data Information Service, 1999)
Slideshow from a presentation containing schematic diagrams showing steps in the development of a generalized predicted vertebrate, amphibian, reptile, bird, or mammal distribution map for Gap Analysis....
The Raster GIS
(Missouri Spatial Data Information Service, 1999)
Current GISs differ according to the way they
organize reality through the data model. Each model tends to fit certain types of data and applications better than others. There are two major choices of data models: Raster ...
Database Design
(Missouri Spatial Data Information Service, 1999)
Database design is a scheme in which database goals are defined and database alternatives are laid out, analyzed, and an
alternative is selected or recommended. It implies that goals are identified and set, and a structured ...
Navigating INFO: Advanced Processing
(Missouri Spatial Data Information Service, 1999)
This presentation deals with data structures and algorithms not inherent to ARC. It is mostly concerned with line coverages (AATs). Topics include: node-arc lists (NAL), NODE Valence tables (VAL), dangling and orphan ARCs, travel time to a node...
GIS Planning and Management
(Missouri Spatial Data Information Service, 1999)
This presentation offers tips on planning and management of a GIS. To be functional, a project database should contain coverages that have the following characteristics: 1)Each coverage contains clean topology, 2) The accuracy of feature locations...
Relational Database Management Systems, Database Design, and GIS
(Missouri Spatial Data Information Service, 1999)
This presentation offers an overview of several different ways to organize and present GIS databases. It begins with a comparison of hybrid models and spatial database servers. That is followed by advantages and disadvantages of relational databases...
GIS Tools
(Missouri Spatial Data Information Service, 1999)
This presentation offers a rundown of tools for use in GIS. GIS application software components include graphics processing, database management, basic cartographic functions, special applications, and application development (which customizes other...
The Raster GIS
(Missouri Spatial Data Information Service, 1999)
influenced by the software available, the training of the key individuals, and historical precedent. There are two major choices of data models: Raster & Vector. This presentation focuses on the Raster model. The Raster model divides the entire study area...
Using geographic information system to address environmental justice concerns in transportation projects
(University of Missouri--Columbia. Office of Undergraduate Research, 2004)
Spatial Data Information Services and Cape Girardeau, Geographic Information Systems was used to create two different maps showing the per capita income and percent minority of that area in Cape Girardeau. This information showed that there were obvious...
Navigating INFO: Database Hygiene
(Missouri Spatial Data Information Service, 1999)
Database hygiene is the process of creating and maintaining an efficient relational
database, as well as modifying existing databases that were poorly defined or implemented. Subtopics offered in this presentation include ...
Navigating INFO: Relates
(Missouri Spatial Data Information Service, 1999)
INFO database diagrams are graphics showing all the info files in a relate sequence. This presentation offers several, including the General Relate, the Ordered Relate, the Link Relate, the Double Relates, the Append Relate, the Active Command...
