[ArcGIS Chinese-English switch/Chinese version setting method]
I shared the Chinese version of each version of ArcGIS before, and everyone is very satisfied with that resource package.
A new problem arises at any time. After the software is localized, many friends cannot find the place to switch between Chinese and English in ArcGIS, so today I will explain it to you in detail. Thank you again for your continued attention and support. Your support is my biggest motivation!
The specific operation method is as follows:
1: Open "Arcgis administrator" in the "Start Menu";
2: Find the "Advanced" button in the lower right corner of the dialog box;
3: Select the language in "Advanced Configuration", and finally restart the software.
The ArcGIS product line provides users with a scalable, comprehensive GIS platform. ArcObjects contains many programmable components, ranging from fine-grained objects (such as individual geometry objects) to coarse-grained objects (such as map objects that interact with existing ArcMap documents), which provide developers with integrated Comprehensive GIS functionality.
In the early days of GIS development, professionals mainly focused on data editing or focused on application engineering, and mainly spent their energy on creating GIS databases and structuring geographic information and knowledge. Slowly, GIS professionals began to use these knowledge bases in a large number of GIS applications. Users apply a full-featured GIS workstation to edit geographic datasets, establish workflows for data editing and quality control, create maps and analytical models, and document these efforts and methods.
This reinforces the traditional notion of GIS users, who often have specialized workstations linked to datasets and databases. Such workstations have complex GIS applications and the logic and tools used to perform almost all GIS tasks.
This view of where GIS software sits has proven invaluable and is embraced by GIS professionals in some 200,000 organizations around the world. In fact, this client-server computing model is so successful that many people think that GIS is the only model. However, the concept of GIS is constantly expanding.
The recent development of the Internet, the great progress of DBMS technology, the widespread use of object-oriented programming languages, mobile devices and GIS have prompted GIS to have a broader prospect and play a more important role.
In addition to GIS desktop products, GIS software can be centralized on application servers and Web servers, delivering GIS functions to any number of users through the network; some GIS logic can be centralized, embedded and deployed in user-customized applications; There are also more applications of deploying GIS software on mobile devices for field GIS business.
Enterprise GIS users use traditional advanced GIS desktop software, web browsers, specialized applications, mobile computing devices, and other digital devices to connect to the central GIS server. The scope of the GIS platform is constantly expanding.
Use ArcGIS to meet all the needs of GIS users
ArcGIS as a scalable platform, whether on the desktop, on the server, in the field or through the Web, provides GIS functionality for individual users as well as groups of users. ArcGIS 9 is a collection of software for building a complete GIS, which includes a series of frameworks for deploying GIS:
ArcGIS Desktop - a complete suite of professional GIS applications
ArcGIS Engine - an embedded development component for custom development of GIS applications
Server-side GIS - - ArcSDE, ArcIMS and ArcGIS Server
Mobile GIS - ArcPad™ and ArcGIS Desktop and Engine for tablet use
ArcGIS is based on a common library of shared GIS components called ArcObjectsTM.
More detailed information on ArcObjects development can be found at.
In the nine months from October 1981 to June 1982, Esri developed ARC/INFO 1.0, which is the world's first modern GIS software and the first commercialized GIS software.
In 1986, the emergence of PC ARC/INFO was another milestone in the history of Esri software development, which was designed for PC-based GIS workstations.
In 1992, Esri introduced ArcView software, which gave people a set of easy-to-use desktop mapping tools with less investment.
In the mid-1990s, Esri's product line continued to grow, with the introduction of the Windows NT-based ArcInfo product to provide users with a variety of options for their GIS and mapping needs. Esri also holds a leading position in the world GIS market.
In 1999, ArcInfo 8 was released, and ArcIMS was also launched, which was the first GIS software at that time that could combine local data with data on the Internet using a simple browser interface.
In April 2004, Esri launched a new generation of ArcGIS software version 9, which provides a complete set of software products for building a complete GIS system.
In 2010, Esri introduced ArcGIS 10. This is the world's first GIS platform that supports cloud architecture. In the WEB2.0 era, it has realized the leap from sharing to collaboration in GIS; at the same time, ArcGIS 10 has real 3D modeling, editing and analysis capabilities, and realizes the transformation from three-dimensional space to The leap of four-dimensional space-time; the real integration of remote sensing and GIS makes the value of RS+GIS prominent.
Esri has officially released the latest version of the product - ArcGIS 10.2 on July 30, 2013, US time. The release of this product marks a new milestone for Esri. In ArcGIS 10.2, Esri has taken advantage of major changes in IT technology to expand the impact and applicability of GIS. The new products are greatly improved in ease of use, access to real-time data, and integration with existing infrastructure. Users can deploy their own Web GIS applications more easily, greatly simplify the process of geographic information exploration, access, sharing and collaboration, and feel the efficiency and convenience brought by the new generation of Web GIS.
- Object class (Object class)
In Geodatabase, the object class is a special class. It has no spatial characteristics and refers to the table (Table) that stores non-spatial data. - Feature class
A collection of spatial features of the same type is a feature class. Such as: rivers, roads, vegetation, land, cables, etc. Feature classes can exist independently or have a relationship. When relationships exist between different feature classes, we organize them into a feature dataset. - Feature dataset
A feature dataset consists of a set of feature classes with the same Spatial Reference.
There are generally three situations when different feature classes are placed under a feature dataset:
thematic classification representation - when different feature classes belong to the same category.
Create Geometric Networks—Various feature classes that serve as connecting points and edges in the same geometric network must be organized into the same feature dataset. .
Consider Planar topologies—feature classes that share common geometric features.
Feature classes that store simple features can be stored in feature sets, or directly stored in the Geodatabase directory as a single feature class. Feature classes stored directly in the Geodatabase directory are also called standalone feature classes. Feature classes that store topological relationships must be stored in feature sets. The purpose of using feature sets is to ensure that these feature classes have a unified spatial reference to facilitate topology maintenance. Geodatabase supports logical integrity between feature classes, which is reflected in the support of complex networks, topology rules, and association classes. - A relationship class
defines the relationship between two different feature classes or object classes. - Geometric network (Geometric network)
Geometric network is a new class established on the basis of several feature classes. - Domains
defines the valid range of values for the property. It can be a continuous change interval or a discrete set of values. - Validation rules are rules
that constrain the behavior and values of feature classes. - Raster Datasets
are used to store raster data. Can support raster data, support image mosaic. - TIN Datasets
TIN is a very classic data model of ARC/INFO, which is an irregular triangular set composed of sampling values (usually elevation values, but also any other types of values) of irregularly distributed sampling points. Used to express surface shape or other types of spatially continuous distribution features. - Locators
Locator (Locator) is a combination of positioning reference and positioning method. For different positioning references, different positioning methods are used for positioning operations. The so-called positioning reference, different positioning information has different expression methods, in the geodatabase, there are four positioning information: address code, place name and zip code, path positioning. The positioning reference data is placed in the database table, and the locator generates spatial positioning points on the map according to the positioning reference data.
The TIN surface data model consists of nodes, edges, triangles, envelopes, and topology.
Node
Node is the basic structural unit of TIN. Nodes are derived from point and line vertices contained in the input data source. Every node will be included in the TIN triangle. Every node in a TIN surface model must contain a z-value.
Edges
Connect each node to its nearest node by an edge, forming a triangle that conforms to the Delaunay criterion. Each edge has two nodes, but each node can contain two or more edges. Each edge has a node containing a z-value at both ends, so the slope between the two nodes of the edge can be calculated.
Each feature in the input data source used to construct the TIN is processed according to its surface feature type. Breakline features always remain as edges of TIN triangles. Internally mark these breakline TIN edges as hard or soft.
Triangles
Each triangular face describes the behavior of part of the TIN surface. The x, y, and z coordinate values of the three nodes of the triangle can be used to obtain surface information such as slope, aspect, surface area, and surface length. Considering the entire set of triangles as a whole, additional information about the surface can be obtained, including volume, surface profile, and visibility analysis.
Since each face summarizes a specific surface behavior, it is important to ensure that the sampling points are chosen appropriately to achieve the best fit for the surface. TIN surface models may produce suboptimal results if important areas of the surface are not properly sampled.
Bag
A TIN package consists of one or more polygons that contain the entire set of data points used to construct the TIN. The envelope defines the interpolation region of the TIN. Inside or on the edge of a cladding, surface z-values can be interpolated, analyses performed, and surface displays generated. Outside the cladding, surface information cannot be obtained. A TIN pack can be constructed from one or more non-convex surfaces.
The non-convex hull must be defined by the user by including "clipping" and "erasing" exclusions during TIN construction. These elements clearly define the edges of the surface. If the hull is not defined with excluded features, the TIN generator will create a convex hull to define the TIN's bounding edges. A convex hull is a face with the following properties: the line connecting any two points of the TIN must itself lie inside the face or must define an edge of the convex hull. The definition of the non-convex hull is important to avoid misinformation in regions of the TIN that lie outside the actual dataset but inside the convex hull.
Shaded areas may have incorrect values interpolated if clipping features are not used.
Topology
Defines the topology of a TIN by retaining information that defines each triangle's nodes, number of edges, type, and adjacency to other triangles. For each triangle, the TIN records the following information: The number of
triangles The number of
each adjacent triangle
The three nodes that define the triangle The
x,y coordinates
of each node The surface z value of each node The
sides of each triangle side Type (hard or soft)
In addition, the TIN also maintains a list of all the edges that make up the TIN package and information that defines the TIN projection and unit of measure.
Storage
of TINs Similar to coverage, TINs are stored in the form of file directories. Note, however, that a TIN is not a coverage, it has no associated INFO file. The TIN directory consists of seven files that contain TIN surface information. These files are encoded in binary format and therefore cannot be read by standard text display or editing programs.
