This session introduces you to ArcGIS Online, a collaborative web GIS platform that allows you to use, create, and share maps, 3D models, GIS apps, layers, analytics and GIS data. With ArcGIS Online you get access to ESri's secure cloud, where not only you can add your data and publish it online, but you also get access to ready-to-use maps, data and template apps.
In this session we will cover the following topics:
- What are Geographic Information Systems (GIS)?
- Accessing ArcGIS Online with your Clemson ID
-Creating a basic web map: adding layers and symbolizing data
-Investigating feature attributes
-Performing a spatial analysis
