Overview
ArcGIS is the newest and most powerful GIS technology from
ESRI, and this comprehensive reference teaches Geographic Information System
(GIS) technology users the concepts and methods for its customization. As
ArcObjects are the building blocks of COM-based ArcGIS software, GIS
professionals are given an introduction to basic object-oriented programming
concepts and the classes, properties, and methods that make ArcObjects unique.
Also stressed are the use of Visual Basic for Applications and the use of
ArcObjects to modify the ArcGIS interface, change its basic operations, and
create entirely new functionality. *NOTE* The book will not be
published with a 180-day version of ArcView 8.1. It will include a CD with data
needed to complete the exercises. The customer must own a licensed copy of
ArcView, ArcEditor, or ArcInfo 8.3 or higher to run the exercises. About the Author:
