GIS Guidelines
The table at left represents guidelines for using spatial data within geographic information systems (GIS)
software, with emphasis on ArcView and ArcGIS software from ESRI.
These do not represent a complete set of
guidelines, and may contain unintentional errors, but are provided to
the user as an aid in downloading, formatting, and using USGS and other
spatial data in a GIS environment.
For more lessons, tools, and guidelines, consult the other resources on the
USGS Rocky
Mountain Mapping Center's Education Program pages.
For more information about these guidelines, contact
Joseph
Kerski or call (303) 202-4315.
