Amppax Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 That is definitely not English. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ToJesusMyHeart Posted June 10, 2013 Author Share Posted June 10, 2013 Lol, no. It's a digital map-making program for PC. I'm taking a summer course to learn it and it's probably one of the worst things ever. I'm curious if anyone else can understand what I'm going through. Probs not though.

morostheos Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 I use it occasionally. I used to know all the ins and outs, but where I work can't afford enough copies to let me use it regularly, so I've forgotten a lot of stuff. If you have any questions, I may be able to help, but no guarantees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToJesusMyHeart Posted June 10, 2013 Author Share Posted June 10, 2013 Awesome! May I ask what your career is? Why do you use it in your job? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maggyie Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 I don't know how to use it myself but my dad gets ArcUser. He is a commercial real estate consultant. I have tried reading the journal articles sometimes and it makes my head spin!! So no advice but I am in awe of you... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It took me 4 hours to do one homework assignment yesterday for that stupid class. Props to your dad for using Arc! I'm just glad this is a 5 week summer class instead of a whole semester...bleck!

morostheos Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 I'm an environmental analyst - I work in cleanup of polluted sites. We make lots of maps of where pollution is and where people are to make sure the people stay safe. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think if I were planning on getting a real job I would love doing something like that. I was majoring in Environmental Science for awhile but recently switched to Geography. What's your degree in? :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always thought it's a good major because I can pet bunnies with preschoolers or do highly technical groundwater analysis all with the same degree and still be "using my education."

TheresaThoma Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 We are supposed to be getting a site license for it at work here soon but I have not used this yet. Our CS guy is really interested in using it though and I would love to see what it will do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoosieranna Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 I'm a GIS Specialist in transportation planning. I use ArcInfo 10 daily and should be getting 10.1 soon. I should be a newly minted GISP by the end of summer. My background is geography. What can I do to help? Confession: I'm a map geek and so rarely hear questions about my field I get giddy when someone "gets" it. Sorry if I seem overeager. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
