Understanding ESRI's Free "Explorer" Applications
ArcExplorer is a lightweight GIS data viewer developed by ESRI. This freely available software offers an easy way to perform a variety of basic GIS functions, including display, query, and data retrieval applications. It can be used on its own with local data sets or as a client to Internet data and map servers.
With ArcExplorer you can
- Freely distribute the ArcExplorer installation and your data CDs so recipients can view your data effectively.
- Display and query a variety of standard data sources including:
- ESRI shapefiles
- ArcInfo coverages
- Images
- ArcIMS Services (i.e., Geography Network sources)
- Pan and zoom through multiple map layers and identify, locate, and query geographic and attribute data.
- Symbolize your data based on attributes contained in your data layers to create thematic maps.
- Perform basic spatial analysis tasks on the geographic data, such as selecting and buffering features.
- Dynamically, view your data in different coordinate systems (with ArcExplorer-Java Edition for Education).
