"Learn
ArcPad in 1 day...Really!"
This seminar is
aimed at field foresters who want to utilize color
imagery, roads, streams, and other map data on
Pocket PCs wherever they work. Participants will
learn how to save time navigating to the job and
from plot to plot. They will learn how to easily
collect data for roads, culverts, streams, and how
to traverse units for acreage calculation. It is
based on proven methods used by Atterbury foresters
while timber cruising, laying out harvest units, and
collecting a variety of GPS data. All participants
will use ArcPad in a real timber environment. All
participants will receive an evaluation copy of ArcPad 7.1.1
—$395.00 |
Pocket PC
units with ArcPad loaded will be provided. If you
would like to purchase your own GPS unit, Pocket PC
and ArcPad 7.1.1
for use in the seminar
contact
Paul Wroe by email.
