- Lab 6 -
Objective:
Become familiar with the ESRI Personal Geodatabase data format by completing Exercises 1, 2, 3, 4,
6 and 8 in the Building Geodatabases Tutorial.
Steps:
1. Create a folder on your H:
drive named lab6_381
2. Copy into H:\lab6_381 the
WinZip file S:\ge381_s08\labs\lab6\lab6.zip
3. Unzip the contents of the
WinZip file into H:\lab6_381.
4. Go through the entire “Building_Geodatabases_Tutorial.pdf” PDF document, which is
located in S:\ge381_f07\ESRI_PDFs.
Notes:
- It is important to keep the domain row highlighted when adding
information in the dialogs below (as on page 11)
- It is important to keep the subtype code row highlighted when adding
information in the dialogs below (as on pages 12-14)
The tutorial refers to data located in
C:\arcgis\ArcTutor\BuildingaGeodatabase, but you will instead refer to
H:\lab6_381\BuildingaGeodatabase (to access the data, make folder connection,
etc.). All your edits will be saved in the Montgomery.gdb
file geodatabase in this folder on H:.
5. When done, create a WinZip
file containing the Montgomery.gdb file as <your_username>_lab6.zip.
6. Copy the zip file into T:\EEOS_381\381_labs_submit\lab6.
