getting started with arc/info

If you have never used esri's arc/info software, you should take some time to make yourself familiar with it. We have the optional text for this course, Understanding GIS, the Arc/INFO Method, in the bookshelf at the front of the teaching lab. If you ask Bonnie Banner (the one who makes everything work in the lab), she can set you up with the sample data sets described in the book.

One can do the self-teaching in the entire book in less than a week. It is recommended that you have a basic understanding of Arc/INFO to get through this course, and this book will help you get there.
