GIS Introduction: AEJEE Version
Question 5.8 What is the (geodesic) distance from Girard to Niles? What is
the total (geodesic) distance from Youngstown to Niles (via Girard)?
6. You can clear all of the lines of measurement by again clicking on the
Measurement tool on the toolbar, and then selecting Clear Measure
Totals.
Question 5.9 What is the (geodesic) distance from Boardman to Warren,
and then from Warren to Niles?
Question 5.10 What is the (geodesic) distance from Austintown, Ohio,
to New Castle, Pennsylvania, and then from New Castle to Hermitage,
Pennsylvania?
5.10 Saving Your Work (and Working on It Later)
When using AEJEE, you can save your work at any time and return to it. When
work is saved in AEJEE, an Extended ArcXML file is written to disk. Later, you
can re-open this file to pick up your work where you left off.
1. Saving to an ArcXML file is done by clicking on the Save icon on the
toolbar (the floppy disk icon) or by choosing Save from the File pulldown menu.
2. Files can be re-opened by choosing the Open icon on the toolbar (the
folder icon) or by choosing Open from the File pull-down menu. If
the Catalog dialog box is still open, close it by selecting the red X in its
window.
3. Exit AEJEE by selecting Exit from the File pull-down menu.
Closing Time
This lab was pretty basic, but served to introduce you to how AEJEE operates
and how GIS data can be manipulated and examined. You’ll be using either
AEJEE or ArcGIS 10 in the next three labs, so the goal of this lab was to get the
fundamentals of the software down. The lab in Chapter 6 takes this GIS data
and starts to do spatial analysis with it, while the lab in Chapter 7 will have
you start making print-quality maps from the data. The lab in Chapter 8 will
involve some further GIS analysis involving road networks.
