Navigating INFO: Introduction and Key Concepts
Abstract
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 powerful relationships like INFO. Results can usually be obtained in INFO using the
crudest methods. There is not much incentive to experiment. The presentation offers notes on learning curves and plateaus, the narrative page, concept page, resource utilization, bits and bytes and item definitions, sorting, variables, coverage, types of files, and program sections.
