“So,” said Santa, his grin widening, “we can get rid of the reindeer?”. He pushed back from his desk and turned to gaze through the glass wall that separated his office from the staff canteen. The reindeer sat together at one of the long tables that were arranged in rows in the canteen. They weren’t…

Tip 4: Joins and Relates

One of the main issues that users seem to need a bit of help with in ArcGIS Desktop is the whole Joins and Relates ‘thing’. I guess this comes up a lot in the petroleum sector as users are often trying to Join pick data to wells, or Relate production data to fields, etc. As…

Tip 3: Getting Help
