Exercise 1
• Introduction to an ArcView project and some of the documents it can contain (views, tables, charts, layouts).
• Note that each document type has its own interface containing menus, buttons, and tools.
Exercise 2You work for the City Maintenance Department,
which plans to add some utilities and upgrade others in a recently renovated part of town. You've been asked to create a map showing the existing utilities to use for planning the additions and upgrades. There is currently no single map that shows all the utilities. Your task is to locate the necessary data sources and add them to a view as themes so you can display them together.
There is only one theme containing image data in this folder.
The view with all four feature themes turned on
Dragging the image theme to the bottom allows the other themes to be drawn on top of it, overlaying the features on the photograph.
Exercise 3
The City Maintenance Department has decided to dig trenches for sewer lines on some of the properties. Your task is to retrieve the address information for these properties so notification letters can be sent to their owners. The Bldgs theme attribute table contains the address information you need. You'll make this theme active, then open its attribute table.
Exercise 4• You work for an ad agency. A prospective
client wants to market a new product in an 18-county area. Your boss wants to show that running a more expensive campaign in the counties with the largest population will get better results than running a cheaper campaign in all the counties. As part of the agency’s presentation, your boss asks you to prepare a map of the 18-county area showing the population distribution.

Theme name
Tells you what that symbol is
Tells you a single symbol is being used to represent all counties
Tells you a symbol is being used to represent a certain type of county
Lets you select the attribute you want to use to classify the counties
Each county in this case has its own unique symbol, because none had exactly the same population in 1993. You can double-check this by noting that each symbol has a count of 1.
Counties are classified into 1 of 5 groups based on their population in 1993. The darker the shade of green, the more people living there.
Each county now has a bar chart associated with it, showing the relative percentages of people in 3 age classes.
Exercise 5Now you'll learn how to change the
symbols that represent features. The Legend Editor and Symbol Window allow you to change the color, size, pattern, and other properties of map symbols.
Cities are points
Roads are lines
Counties are polygons
Double-click to open Legend Editor for Cities
Notice that the Cities symbol now has an outline around it (or whatever design you selected), but the color has not changed.
In the Pen Palette, pick a double line to represent Interstates
Double-click the symbol to open the Pen Palette
Double-click on the first symbol, then hold shift and click on the other two.
Pick a pattern in the Fill Palette
