Duration: 2 daysDo you use ArcInfo or ArcView? Why would you use imagery in your vector Geographical Information Systems? This two-day intermediate course will teach students how to process and prepare satellite images and air photographs so they can be used to update, enhance and expand their vector GIS. Students will be introduced to the tools that will enable them to extract information from the imagery and then display and analyze this information.Dates
