<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>Vous avez surement déjà rencontré la problématique suivante : Comment changer l&#8217;ordre des champs affichés dans une table dans ArcGIS? Pour changer l&#8217;ordre d&#8217;affichage, rien de plus simple, on &#8220;drag and drop&#8221; les éléments et le tour est joué. Mais comment les changer définitivement?</p>
<p>On peut se créer une nouvelle table ou classe d&#8217;entité dans laquelle on ajoutera les champs dans l&#8217;ordre souhaité. Par la suite, on a qu&#8217;à importer (ou exporter tout dépends du sens <img src='http://s.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':-)' class='wp-smiley' />  ) les données de la version avec les champs non ordonné dans celle que l&#8217;on vient de créer.</p>
<p>Cependant, si vous avez ArcEditor ou ArcInfo et que vos données sont en format géodatabase. Vous pouvez exporter votre géodatabase en fichier XML. Pour ce faire, faites un clique-droit sur la géodatabase et choisir exporter en fichier XML.</p>
<p>Si vous ne l&#8217;avez pas déjà, téléchargez le logiciel <a href="http://arcscripts.esri.com/details.asp?dbid=15166" target="_blank">&#8220;Diagarammer&#8221;</a> et ouvrez votre fichier XML dans cette application. Ouvrez les propriétés de l&#8217;objet (table ou classe d&#8217;entité) et cliquez sur &#8220;Fields&#8221;.  L&#8217;objet est une collection de champs  que vous pouvez réordonner comme bon vous sembles. Par la suite sauvegardez votre nouveau fichier XML et dans ArcCatalog importez ce fichier dans une géodatabase.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>_____อากาศหนาวแวะมาทักทาย เราอีกครั้งในปีนี้ มนุษย์ขี้หนาวอย่างผมก็มักจะมีปัญหากับการตื่นนอนในช่วงที่อากาศเย็นสบายอย่างนี้ สัปดาห์นี้ตื่นสายมาแล้วสองวันทำให้ต้องตกรถไฟ ความลำบากประการที่สองคือโรคประจำตัวเกิดกำเริบทำให้ต้องนั่งไอค๊อกแค๊กทั้งวัน โรคนี้เป็นของรางวัลจากการทำงานหนัก เป็นโรคที่แวะมาเยือนเพื่อบอกกับตัวผมว่าเราแก่ลงแล้วนะ ไม่สามารถอดหลับอดนอนทำงานข้ามคืนได้เหมือนก่อน สุขภาพเป็นต้นทุนที่มองไม่เห็นจริงๆแต่ก่อนผมมักคิดถึงค่าตอบแทนจากเรื่องของเวลาบวกกับค่าเสียโอกาส ตอนนี้ต้องเปลี่ยนความคิดใหม่ต้องเพิ่มส่วนของค่าเสียโอกาสอันเกิดจากการใช้งานร่างกายหนักด้วย ทางแก้ของผมคงไม่ใช่เลิกทำงานหรือทำงานให้น้อยลงเพราะนั้นเท่ากับเป็นการตัดโอกาสของตัวเอง ตอนนี้เลือกที่จะหันมาเรียนรู้เรื่องการจัดการเวลาอย่างจริงจัง ลงทุนซื้อหนังสือ Howto หลายเล่มมาอ่าน หนังสือหลายเล่มมีวิธีการสอนเรื่องการจัดการเวลาที่ดี เพราะฝรั่งเค้าเชื่อว่าการจัดการเวลาที่ดีทำให้คนเราประสบความสำเร็จในชีวิต ตัวอย่างหนึ่งที่ผมนำมาใช้คือการวางแผนแบบระยะสั้น กลาง และยาว มีแผนการทำงานแบบรายวันซึ่งมีการออกแบบเพื่อตอบสนองแผนแบบ กลางและยาวให้ไปถึงเป้าหมาย แผนรายวันระยะสั้นมีการแบ่งงานออกเป็น Matrix โดยแบ่งเป็นปัจจัยด้านความสำคัญของงาน และความเร่งด่วน แน่นอนว่าผู้พิจารณาต้องเป็นเรา อย่าไปถามเจ้านายหรือคนสั่งเพราะทุกคนตอบเหมือนกันว่า งานของเค้าสำคัญที่สุดและเร่งด่วนที่สุด</p>
<p>______ กลับมาที่เรื่องของ GIS สักหน่อย ห่างหายไปจากการ upblog หลายวันจนมีคนแซวว่าดอง blog !!!! แหมแค่ช่วงนี้แหละครับพอดีไปสอนเรื่อง Geoinfomatic Programming ด้วย python ที่ GISTDA เลยใช้เวลาในการเตรียมเอกสารมาก แต่การได้มาทำตรงนี้ทำให้ผมเข้าถึง python มาขึ้นโดยเฉพาะการเอา python มา Process ภาพถ่ายดาวเทียม มีโอกาสจะนำมาเล่าสู่กันฟังต่อไปนะครับ วันนี้ของโม้เรื่อง Tile Caching อีกสักทีัเพราะข่าวล่าสุดที่ออกมาคือ ArcGIS Online มีการย้ายส่วนของ Schema Tiles แบบเดิมมาเป็นอย่างแบบของ Google Maps และ Bing Maps เพื่อรองรับการผสานการทำงานระหว่างระบบ Map Service กับ Google Maps และ Bing Maps เริ่มใช้งานต้นปีหน้า โดยทั้ง Google Map , Bing และ OSM จะใช้รูปแบบของการปรับแปลง Mercator projection (WGS 1984 Web Mercator )บนรูปแบบ 256 x 256 tiles size ของเดิม Arcgis Online เป็น Tile 512*512 บน WGS 1984 geographic coordinate system ซึ่งการปรับระบบ Tile Size ให้มาเท่ากันทำให้ Application แบบ Tile-caching สามารถทำงานได้ง่ายในการนำข้อมูลจากแม่ข่ายมาแสดงผลร่วมกัน หลายคนที่เป็นนักแผนที่อาจจะตะขิดตะขวงใจว่าทำไมจึงใช้ Mercator แทนระบบ Geodetic CRS ผมเองก็ได้แต่ผงกหัวตามเวลาที่เค้ายกทฤษฎีมา complain แต่มองในมุมการพัฒนา Application ในหมวกของ developer ยังไงผมก็รัก Mercator มากกว่าครับในด้านการจัดการภาพและการทำ caching แน่นอนว่าความถูกต้องทางตำแหน่งย่อมลดลง รวมไปถึงความถูกต้องเชิงระยะและเชิงสเกลด้วย แต่ถ้าเทียบกับรูปแบบการนำไปใช้ในงานทั่วไป หรือใน ระดับมาตราส่วนกลางถึงเล็กก็ยังยอมรับได้อยู่ครับ</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>Changed the blog default header image (although I quite liked the previous one) and put a map I currently work on, which hopefully will be ready soon.<br />
The map was created in ArcGIS (desktop edition) with a coloured DTM, a hillshaded transparent layer and a topo base map of the Amvrakikos bay near Preveza, which is in western Greece (the part shown on the map is north to the bay and is mostly mountainous and closer to the city of Arta). Using the right tools to build a proper DTM not only produces hydrologically correct surfaces but also makes hillshades look prettier&#8230;The image was rotated, so the north direction is to the right.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-17" title="tutorial-arcgis" src="http://geotecnologias.wordpress.com/files/2008/03/tutorial-arcgis.jpg" alt="" width="510" height="54" /></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Quanto tempo em amigos!?</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Hoje estaremos falando um pouco sobre Classificação Supervisionada. O post foi muito motivado pelo visitante Eddison de Costa Rica que todas as vezes que eu postava algo ele me escrevia para saber sobre a postagem deste tutorial (rsrsr). Eddison, estou aguardando a análise do tuts&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Bem, agora vamos às considerações. Esse processo de extração de informação de dados matriciais é utilizado dentro do Sensoriamento Remoto como uma forma de mapear as áreas a partir de seu comportamento espectral, ou seja, cada região de pixel mapeada representa a radiância do alvo em estudo.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">A Classificação utilizada para este tutorial baseia se no método de classificação que considera a ponderação das distâncias entre médias dos níveis digitais das classes, utilizando parâmetros estatísticos, esses dirão qual a probabilidade de um Pixel pertencer ou não à uma determinada classe ou a outra, levando em consideração a localização do mesmo segundo a distribuição espectral da classe.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><!--more--></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">“É importante que a área de treinamento seja uma amostra homogênea da classe respectiva, mas ao mesmo tempo deve-se incluir toda a variabilidade dos níveis de cinza. Recomenda-se que o usuário adquira mais de uma área de treinamento, utilizando o maior número de informações disponíveis, como trabalhos de campo, mapas, etc.” (Spring, 2009).</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Só para deixar registrado aqui, lembro a vocês que o ArcGIS não é um software de PDI, apesar de ter ótimos módulos para tal. Bem, além disso é importante saber que esse processo pode ser desenvolvido de outras formas, com mais precisão, partindo das estatísticas da imagem e outras nuances.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Eu fico por aqui e deixo vocês à vontade para dar sugestões e criticas sobre esse tutorial e sobre as diversas outras matérias postadas aqui.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Um abraço.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>In this lab you will use ArcGIS to perform some spatial statistics</p>
<h3>Instructions</h3>
<p>Click on Start &#62; Network Drives &#62; Geography 563</p>
<p>Copy the Earthquakes and ClusterPointsClipped files to your network folder or a local drive.</p>
<h3>Nearest Neighbor</h3>
<p>The ClusterPointsClipped shapefile gives the starting point for around 3000 transit trips in Salt Lake City.</p>
<p>Launch ArcGIS and add the ClusterPointsClipped.shp to the map.  Click on the toolbox button to open the tools pane.  Use the Average Nearest Neighbor tool (Spatial Statistics Tools &#62; Analyzing Patterns &#62; Average Nearest Neighbor) to analyze the point pattern.  Change the distance measure from Euclidian to Manhattan Distance, but otherwise use the defaults..  Note the average nearest neighbor value.  Are the points clustered, random, or dispersed?</p>
<h3>Moran&#8217;s I</h3>
<p>The Earthquakes shapefile has the location and magnitude of 90 small earthquakes in California.  Launch a fresh instance of ArcGIS and add Earthquakes.shp to the map.  Use the Spatial Autocorrelation tool (Spatial Statistics Tools &#62; Analyzing Patterns &#62; Spatial Autocorrelation) to run a Moran&#8217;s I analysis on the data (use the default inverse distance method).  Are the earthquake strengths spatially autocorrelated?  Try at least two other distance weighting methods.  Do the results change when you use these methods?</p>
<h3>What to Turn In</h3>
<p><a href="mailto:chris.upchurch@sc.edu?subject=563 Assignment 9">Send me an e-mail</a> with &#8220;563 Assignment 9&#8243; in the subject line. The e-mail should have your name it in and your answers to the questions above.  </p>
<h3>How You Will Be Graded</h3>
<p>You will be graded on the completeness and correctness of your answers.</p>
<h3>Due Date</h3>
<p>This assignment is due on Thursday, December 3rd at the beginning of class. Any assignments turned in after that moment will be given only half credit.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>Leuke dag op kantoor bij ESRI in Rotterdam. Kennisdag (1x per maand), dan valt er altijd wat te leren. Ik schoof aan bij een presentatie over de ArcGIS Server Portal extensie. Knap om een complex verhaal zo duidelijk te brengen. Het belang van metadata zie ik in, hoe zorgen we ervoor dat alle geo-organisaties in Nederland dit ook inzien?</p>
<p>Tijdens een discussie over sociale media valt me pas op dat <a title="ESRI nieuws" href="http://www.esrinl.com/content/nieuws.asp?id=643" target="_blank">ESRI nieuws heeft voor IPhone liefhebbers</a>. Via Itunes zonder kosten te downloaden! Kan het helaas zelf niet testen. Kerst of diploma kado?</p>
<p>Deze post komt binnen via email aan mijn blog. Mijn locatie opgeven (Station Almeerderzand) lukt nog niet. Welcome in suburbia, het aards paradijs&#8230; Morgen leuk ik dit bericht wel op.</p>

<description><![CDATA[It was recently brought to my attention that the graphing tool in ArcGIS could be really useful if y]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>It was recently brought to my attention that the graphing tool in ArcGIS could be really useful if you had the right type of data (thanks to ND at UO). Well, I spent most of today trying to refine a longitudinal profile of the Owyhee River from my coveted LiDAR data set, and it occurred to me that I had some useful data.</p>
<div>
<div>My goal beyond just examining the profile was to indicate the locations of major landslide complexes along the river corridor to investigate how they may influence the river&#8217;s gradient.  I actually extracted the profile data from the data using a tool in GlobalMapper which I like. I converted the data to an excel spreadsheet, opened the sheet in Arc and then exported it into my Geodatabase as a feature dataset. Once it was in there, I created a graph of the data (basically the profile) and began to select points on the profile along key reaches that I had mapped. Lo and behold, those points i selected on the map lit up in the profile graph. Sweet. This was huge. It goes both ways as well. Select points on the graph, and they light up on the map.</div>
<p>&#160;</p>
<div><a href="http://posterous.com/getfile/files.posterous.com/geofroth/zqnmjsjbi5QFLhWMXneDpFSKmWTfo8r3vyLH4FXWO8LrxCa8iz37bk7yi7OU/11-13-2009_5-14-35_PM.png"><img src="http://posterous.com/getfile/files.posterous.com/geofroth/WANCrrOR8Fo27v0nSqW2yz9GOyEuPsPDkDsGaDwsQklSlkHVq4zD8LKmr0RE/11-13-2009_5-14-35_PM.png.scaled.500.jpg" alt="" width="500" /></a></div>

<p>&#160;</p>
<div><a href="http://posterous.com/getfile/files.posterous.com/geofroth/kO2IuQ7UbjQrm82eJhVKsz38OKN8a27aA3EMlN1DxH8DqRWg3Mhvk2qAemEK/11-13-2009_4-23-28_PM.png.scaled.1000.jpg"><img src="http://posterous.com/getfile/files.posterous.com/geofroth/e9n0Da2uIsWN8VwbcEo1KKJ1icwNA6Nvxn1uDZ1FXPZ0MsPOjSH9XxzgXZqu/11-13-2009_4-23-28_PM.png.scaled.500.jpg" alt="" width="500" /></a></div>
<p>&#160;</p>
<div>Restrict the displayed points on the graph to those selected on the map and you can export them as a subset of the data. This step comes in really handy for plotting the exact position of the landslide complex-reaches on the overall profile figure. Previously, I had stupidly brute-forced this process. Typical. The result is below:</div>
<p>&#160;</p>
<div><a href="http://posterous.com/getfile/files.posterous.com/geofroth/pQx8LFC3HRfzX6VbCL3a79mV9qgrC3s0vIgxlLRdJC9XP8u0oViyt3L15gWd/11-13-2009_4-57-27_PM.png"><img src="http://posterous.com/getfile/files.posterous.com/geofroth/MdmgfTX5Mdvfu2WwoOze25ZZc1gVVV36TDjNAnYtb4n9s3Wah8t4cz4RCWs1/11-13-2009_4-57-27_PM.png.scaled.500.jpg" alt="" width="500" /></a></div>
<p>&#160;</p>
<div>Also very useful is to plot the profile data in the form of cumulative distance vs. slope of channel segment. This graph immediately indicates important trends and anomalies in the data. Turns out that the anomalously high slope values and negative slope values relate, in this case, mainly to inadvertently collected data from vegetated bars, extremely coarse gravel bars, and even wave trains at some of the rapids. Thus, an important and informed QA step can be taken to clean out the riff-raff. In general, though, you can see how useful this method is for zeroing-in on areas of key interest. For example, many of the points on the map below correspond to rapids</div>

Een simpele thematische kaart van de VS (<a title="Mexicaanse griep" href="http://www.healthlandscape.org/h1n1/" target="_blank">Healthlandscape</a>), een wat statischer <a title="RIVM" href="http://www.rivm.nl/vtv/object_map/o3033n21466.htmlhttp://www.rivm.nl/vtv/object_map/o3033n21466.html" target="_blank">overzicht </a>van het RIVM, zien er beide ArcGIS-achtig en professioneel uit. De <a title="Grote griep meeting" href="http://www.degrotegriepmeting.nl/" target="_blank">grote griep meting</a> doet ook mee. Deze laatste (en andere kaarten) doet mij denken aan een oude rubriek uit het Kartografisch Tijdschrijft &#8220;zo kan het, maar zo kan het ook&#8221;. Ik begrijp dat deze binnenkort in ere wordt hersteld. Mooi!</p>
<p><!--more-->Na vernieuwde aandacht op de Mexicaanse griep vanuit overheid en media, vroeg ik me af waarom wij dit verschijnsel <em>Mexicaanse</em> griep noemen. In Noord Amerika heet de griep zeker niet zo, men spreekt over swineflu. Denk dat de vele Mexicanen in het noorden dat zo beter bevalt&#8230;</p>

<description><![CDATA[As a Geographer I get asked, “So like, you know all the state capitols then, right?” Or when someone]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>As a Geographer I get asked, “So like, you know all the state capitols then, right?” Or when someone asks what I do and I reply, “Cartographer”, which is usually followed with a perplexing look on their face. “Wait for it” I say to myself, “So, you take pictures of cars?” Seriously, it happens more than you know.</p>
<p>Depressing really.</p>
<p>So here is a quick FYI on the subject of Geography/Cartography in case you happen to run into one on the street.</p>
<p>Geography in a nutshell asks the question ‘why’ not ‘where’. Shocking I know. Geography studies the ‘why’ when it comes to the location of things, cities for instance, “Why is Austin located where it is?” In order to know the why, Geographers have to have some knowledge of biology (plant and animal life), geology (formation of rocks, soils, i.e., Earth Sciences, etc.) They also study climate (weather patterns, natural disasters), economy (usually tied to disaster studies), Hydrology (water resources), and of course the human response to these things and the events that occur as well as the impact we have on the environment.   All this data is quantifiable in a map. Once symbolized by a Cartographer a Geographer can study the data and recognize any patterns or such and answer the question, why. Lest I forget, an integral part of the study of Geography is time. Studying the same data over time can help answer the question as well.</p>
<p>As for Cartography, it is the accumulation of data (as mentioned above) that is expressed in spatial context to known geographical elements, in essence, the making of a map. Usually one uses a Geographic Information System (G.I.S) like I do. (www.esri.com) Cartography incorporates science (projections and datums and what-not) as well as art. Without getting nerdy, mathematical equations (projections) help portray a round world onto a flat surface and still maintain ‘shape’, ‘distance’ (between two points) or ‘area’, whichever is most important for the viewer to understand. Think of projections this way. Take a transparent globe and cut it in half. Hold one half in your hand in front of you and in the other hand shine a flashlight at it. The result would be a ‘projection’ on the wall of a three dimensional object (Earth) onto a two dimensional wall. The shape, distance and or area would be distorted. Certain projections help maintain these things depending on what’s most important. Ever notice that Greenland is about as big if not bigger than the U.S.A on a map but on a globe it’s smaller? Different maps have different priorities, shape, distance or area.     As for the art side, well it’s just a matter of aesthetics really. It has been proven that a ‘beautiful’ map that is woefully incorrect will be trusted more so than an ugly map that is highly accurate. When it comes to making a map the colors, symbols and patterns all play a part in delivering a ‘believable’ message.</p>
<p>There are different maps for different reasons. Is it a map in a book like the Road Atlas (don’t need endangered species outlined on a road map do you?) or is it a huge wall map for public display? (You can’t have small text as most will be viewing the map from feet away rather than inches.) The intended use of a map along with the message to be delivered directs the cartographer in certain directions.   Cartography is a fine balance of science and art. Delivering a ‘message’ that is accurate and beautiful is the sole responsibility of a cartographer.</p>
<p>So there you have it, a very general idea of Geography and Cartography. I stumbled into this field about 10 years ago and have found that I like it. I enjoy what I do and I often tell people that I play with colors and shapes for a living because most of the time, it’s true! HA! I also have to tell my wife, much to her dismay, just because I make maps for a living does not mean I know where I am or where I am going and no I will not stop and ask for directions!  But if you want to test your &#8216;Geographical&#8221; knowledge of &#8216;where&#8217;, go here, it&#8217;s fun. http://www.lizardpoint.com/fun/geoquiz/index.html</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>For those who didn&#8217;t get to attend the <a title="ESRI User Conference 2009" href="http://www.esri.com/events/uc/" target="_blank">San Diego User Conference</a> in person this, <a href="http://www.esri.com/" target="_blank">ESRI</a> spent some time putting on local presentations of the <a title="ESRI User Conference 2009 Plenary Session" href="http://www.esri.com/events/uc/agenda/plenary.html" target="_blank">Plenary Session</a>. My co-workers and I attended the one given in <a title="Embassy Suites - Bellevue, WA" href="http://embassysuites1.hilton.com/en_US/es/hotel/SEABLES-Embassy-Suites-Seattle-Bellevue-Washington/index.do" target="_blank">Bellevue</a> today and came away quite impressed. T.J. Abbenhaus, Heather Glock, &#38; Leah Saunders were outstanding in going over the highlights. The only thing missing were the freebies.</p>
<p>Quite a few things from ArcGIS 9.3.1 were reviewed although the refresher was nice. Besides the significant improvements to the ArcGIS Server rendering I think <a title="Layer Packages" href="http://blogs.esri.com/Info/blogs/gisedcom/archive/2009/05/26/layer-packages-arcmap-arcgis-online-and-arcgis-explorer-900.aspx" target="_blank">layer packages</a> and <a title="ArcGIS Online" href="http://www.arcgisonline.com/home/" target="_blank">ArcGIS Online</a> (which <a title="Jack Dangermond, ESRI President" href="http://www.esri.com/about-esri/about/jack_dangermond.html" target="_blank">Jack Dangermond</a> described as &#8220;GeoFlickr&#8221;) are going to go over big. We&#8217;re going to have to start enhancing our FTP site by providing layer packages which include the symbology that so many users have asked for in the past. Also mentioned was an ESRI Business Solution named <a title="MapIt" href="http://www.esri.com/software/mapit/index.html" target="_blank">MapIt</a>. This was developed by ESRI to take advantage of Microsoft platform &#38; technology such as SQL Server 2008 spatial datatypes, SharePoint, Bing maps, Excel &#38; Silverlight to implement GIS-enabled enterprise solutions. Very interesting.</p>
<p>Next up was <a title="What's Coming in ArcGIS 9.4" href="http://www.esri.com/software/arcgis/whats-new/whats-coming.html" target="_blank">ArcGIS 9.4</a> rumored to be available around the time of the 2010 User Conference. Many changes to the user interface will be introduced &#8211; most for the better as long as it doesn&#8217;t go &#8220;ribbon&#8221; on us. I especially liked the dockable windows (which don&#8217;t cause a screen refresh) and the addition of edit templates. The map book capability has been greatly improved. Other changes or additions include an open API to the file geodatabase, replication of SDE data (non-versioned and multiple schemas), a new mosaic imagery catalog, the inclusion of some features from Image Analyst (the ENVI rooftop demo was awesome), and the ability for non-licensed clients to view Maplex labels. An interesting Python script was also shown that allowed reconnecting the data sources for multiple map documents &#8211; very cool.</p>
<p>After that, there were <a title="Sharing Your Maps Using ArcGIS Online" href="http://training.esri.com/acb2000/showdetl.cfm?did=6&#38;Product_id=958" target="_blank">introductions to and demos</a> of the <a title="Map Templates" href="http://resources.esri.com/maptemplates/" target="_blank">Map Templates</a> followed by a short overview of the &#8220;<a title="Creating Effective Web Maps" href="http://bwsd.wordpress.com/2009/06/02/creating-effective-web-maps/">Creating Effective Web Maps</a>&#8221; seminar.</p>
<p>All in all, a fully worthwhile use of the day!</p>

<description><![CDATA[It occurred to me (stroke of genius!) while fiddling with some VB Script code for labeling expressio]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>It occurred to me (stroke of genius!) while fiddling with some VB Script code for labeling expressions in ArcMap last week that ArcGIS asks a lot of you in terms of programming languages. Visual Basic for customizing the software, Python for geoprocessing, VBScript or JavaScript for tweaking like labeling&#8230; wouldn&#8217;t it be nice if you only needed one language ?! I haven&#8217;t spent any time reviewing what&#8217;s <a href="http://www.esri.com/software/arcgis/whats-new/whats-coming.html">under the hood of ArcGIS 9.4</a>. Maybe more potential for Python? I think there was some talk of more functionality working in Python with layers. We&#8217;ll see.</p>
<p>On a related matter, I am faced with the same confusion when it comes to Web GIS. Which platform for web development is the one I should choose? So I enjoyed today&#8217;s email from <a href="http://geochalkboard.wordpress.com/2009/10/29/poll-gis-web-development-platform/">geospatialtraining.com</a> that asked readers to participate in a survey on this matter. Looking at survey results, the three front runners are Google Open Layers, Maps API, and Mapserver. So my recent efforts with Mapserver may not have been in vain. Amazingly, Geodjango garnered an astonishing 5% !</p>
<p>Over all, I want to stick with Python and hope that eventually it will become the tool to do it all. I ordered a book on Iron Python the other day and then actually saw post on <a href="http://www.spatiallyadjusted.com/2009/06/17/ironpython-and-esri-arcgis/">James Fee&#8217;s blog about Iron Python &#38; ArcGIS</a>. I would love to see Python turn into the ultimate super-glue language that connects ArcGIS with the Open Source realm.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>TWD97和TWD67是台灣常用座標系統，在ArcGIS上面如何設定？<!--more--></p>
<p>1.開啟layer的properiies→Coordinate System→New→Projected Coordinate system</p>
<div id="attachment_15" class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 486px"><img class="size-full wp-image-15" title="p0006" src="http://twmtman.wordpress.com/files/2009/10/p0006.png" alt="p0006" width="476" height="560" /><p class="wp-caption-text">定義好座標系統，以後使用時就會很方便許多</p></div>
<p>2.輸入TWD97參數</p>
<p>座標系統名字可以自己取</p>
<p>Projection Name :Transverse_Mercator  （橫麥卡拖投影）</p>
<p>False easting: 250000</p>
<p>False northing:0</p>
<p>Central Meridian:121  (澎湖為 119)</p>
<p>Scale Factor：0.9999</p>
<p>Latitude of origin：0</p>
<p>3.選擇Geographic Coordinate System</p>
<p>Select→Asia→GCS_TWD_1997→add→確定</p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-16" title="p0008" src="http://twmtman.wordpress.com/files/2009/10/p0008.png" alt="p0008" width="491" height="334" /></p>
<p>4.接下來記得將設定好的座標系統 add to Favorite</p>
<div id="attachment_17" class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 486px"><img class="size-full wp-image-17" title="p0009" src="http://twmtman.wordpress.com/files/2009/10/p0009.png" alt="p0009" width="476" height="560" /><p class="wp-caption-text">加入到我的最愛</p></div>
<p>5.TWD67設定方法</p>
<p>TWD67的方法大致跟TWD97相同，但是部分參數需要修改，<span style="background-color:#ffffff;"> 1和2步驟與參數和TWD97都一樣，在步驟3的地方，選擇Geographic Coordinate System</span></p>
<p>Select→Asia→Hu Tzu Shan.prj→add，這時候<span style="background-color:#ffffff;">虎子山的基準內定並不是內政部頒訂的GRS67(TWD67)，需要要選Modify，在Datum改選D_GRS_1967</span></p>
<p><span style="background-color:#ffffff;">確定→確定→大功告成</span></p>
<p><span style="background-color:#ffffff;"> </span></p>
<div id="attachment_18" class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 378px"><img class="size-full wp-image-18" title="p0010" src="http://twmtman.wordpress.com/files/2009/10/p0010.png" alt="p0010" width="368" height="544" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Modify</p></div>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>我們有時候需要GIS圖層的資料時，但我們往往只能拿到一張JPG的圖片，很難拿到原始的向量（shapefile）或網格圖層（raster），這時候就需用利用ArcGIS重新繪製，如下：<!--more--></p>
<p>1.我們能下載石門水庫生態敏感區資料，只能是這張圖</p>
<div id="attachment_5" class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 363px"><img class="size-full wp-image-5" title="p0001" src="http://twmtman.wordpress.com/files/2009/10/p0001.jpg" alt="p0001" width="353" height="500" /><p class="wp-caption-text">石門水庫生態敏感區圖</p></div>
<p>2.重繪第一步需要將沒有座標的圖定位到有座標的圖層上：</p>
<p>開啟ArcMap後，Add data將石門水庫集水區圖層和&#8221;石門水庫生態敏感區圖&#8221;加入，<span style="background-color:#ffffff;">開啟Georeferencing工具列，並且確定layer的圖層是你要去定位的圖層，選錯可能會弄壞原本已經定位的圖，</span></p>
<div id="attachment_6" class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 806px"><img class="size-full wp-image-6" title="p0002" src="http://twmtman.wordpress.com/files/2009/10/p0002.jpg" alt="p0002" width="796" height="500" /><p class="wp-caption-text">開啟Georeferencing工具列，指定圖層</p></div>
<p>3.Fit to Display</p>
<p>在尋找控制點之前，先將地圖縮放置與圖片大小相當的範圍，Geoerferencing→Fit to Display，圖片就會大略對上地圖。</p>
<div id="attachment_7" class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 806px"><img class="size-full wp-image-7  " title="p0003" src="http://twmtman.wordpress.com/files/2009/10/p0003.jpg" alt="p0003" width="796" height="500" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Fit to Display 之後，位置就會大略對上</p></div>
<p>4.尋找控制點</p>
<p>利用Geoerferencing定位，這時候需要尋找兩張地圖相互對應的點，通常簡單定位僅需2-3個點，如果需要比較仔細的定位，最好大於3個控制點，定位前建議可以將圖片調成50%透明，可以比較方便定位，並選擇紅色綠色的Add control point，利用集水區邊就可以輕鬆找到兩個相同的點，先點選圖片的控制點在點地圖對應的點。一般來說：沒有轉動偏移的圖只要兩個控制點就很夠用了。</p>
<div id="attachment_9" class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 806px"><img class="size-full wp-image-9" title="p0004" src="http://twmtman.wordpress.com/files/2009/10/p0004.jpg" alt="p0004" width="796" height="500" /><p class="wp-caption-text">善用集水區界，尋找控制點</p></div>
<p>5.完成</p>
<p>定位完記記得一定要存檔，有兩種方式可以存檔，</p>
<p>a. Update Geoerferencing：會在圖片jpg檔旁增加一個負檔名為jgw的檔案，比較簡單。</p>
<p>b.Rectify：會重新取樣一個新的圖檔</p>
<div id="attachment_11" class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 174px"><img class="size-full wp-image-11" title="p0005" src="http://twmtman.wordpress.com/files/2009/10/p0005.jpg" alt="p0005" width="164" height="234" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Update Geoerferencing</p></div>
<p>6.大功告成。</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>It is tortured river season in my office. Lately, I have been tackling Nevada&#8217;s mighty Walker River and its shrinking terminal lake (new term is terminus lake&#8230;but that is a bit soft); and Oregon&#8217;s Owyhee River and its travails with lava and landslides; but now I am back on to the Mighty Bill Williams River of Arizona. You know, the Bill Williams River.</p>
<p>Included below is a snippet of the map I am working on. Shown are 6 generations of lines that document major changes in the channel, most since a dam was finished in the late 60s. One day soon, this map will actually make sense, I promise.</p>
<div>
<div><a href="http://posterous.com/getfile/files.posterous.com/geofroth/mEycomC3biwTctb8cZ3fJ9ccZrWWEt1conDx5kvWzh77WuBm5u9xc52uxhD0/10-30-2009_10-30-57_AM.png.scaled.1000.jpg"><img src="http://posterous.com/getfile/files.posterous.com/geofroth/OPNcXL5XbWYSqiFmAqQkmQ8Mm9uXH0ytttY32V0M9s8NRF8WuQ3fDj0iZqOz/10-30-2009_10-30-57_AM.png.scaled.500.jpg" alt="" width="500" /></a></div>
<p>&#160;</p>
<div>The BWR is a special case. It is a roughly 35 mi stretch of river that traverses the hot desert below the confluence of two rivers that collectively drain more than 5000 square miles of western Arizona. Alamo Dam sits just below the confluence and traps essentially all of the sediment that would otherwise have gone down the BWR and to the Colorado River (well, at least to Lake Havasu). Also important to note is that the pre-dam BWR could attain peak discharges ranging up to 100,000 cfs, whereas the post-dam BWR can hardly exceed 7000 cfs owing to the outlet works of the dam. Thus, large runoff events that would have otherwise blasted through the system in a week or less (Spikes) are now converted to protracted, flat-topped hydrographs that lumber through the channel for up to several weeks to months (Bricks). Recall that these bricks are also sediment-free except for the sed picked up in the channel below the dam.</div>
<p>&#160;</p>
<div>The result is an interesting experiment in channel change, sediment budgeting, and inadvertent (or otherwise) tamarisk farming.</div>
<p>&#160;</p>
<div>I won&#8217;t be posting daily updates of this map, so don&#8217;t worry. Be assured, however, that I will make a lot of noise when I finally finish it. This one is a long, long, long, time coming. Just ask the sponsors.</div>
