Introduction to ArcGIS Survey Analyst

ArcGIS technology allows survey data to be stored, managed, and displayed in ArcMap. This course provides an overview of the functionality offered by the ArcGIS Survey Analyst extension. You will see where survey data is stored in the geodatabase and learn how to link existing data to surveyed points, digitize new features from surveyed points, and evaluate the accuracy of mapped features according to their survey measurements.

This course is designed for surveyors and GIS technicians who want to incorporate survey data into ArcGIS.

Those who complete this course will be able to

• Describe how survey data is stored in the geodatabase.
• Display survey data in ArcMap.
• Adjust feature locations using survey points.
