Price: Mastering ArcGIS is an introductory GIS text that is designed to offer everything you need to master the basic elements of GIS. This manual is built to accompany ArcGIS version 10.5 but also works with versions 10.2and 10.4. The author's step-by-step approach helps students negotiate the challenging tasks involved in learning sophisticated GIS software. An innovative and unique feature of Mastering ArcGIS is its accompanying narrated video clips that show students exactly how to perform chapter tutorials before attempting an exercise on their own.
For Connect? users, the ReadAnywhere App is a free, downloadable app available on iOS and Android mobile devices. It gives students mobile freedom to access their eBook anywhere, even offline, on their smartphone or tablet. Once chapters are downloaded, students can use the same tools that are available in the eBook. Any notes or highlights they make in the eBook will sync across platforms. Visit https://www.mheducation.com/highered/explore/readanywhere.html for more information.
The web site contains two types of videos. The Tutorial Videos demonstrate each step of the tutorial. They are numbered in the text for easy reference. The Skills Reference Videos show how to perform generic tasks, such as deleting a file or changing symbols on a map. The videos are intended as a supplement and as an alternate learning strategy for those who find following a series of written steps cumbersome.
A set of exercises, map documents, and data for practicing skills independently are included.
Maribeth Price narrates the video clips on the accompanying web site herself.
