 Excellent work with minor flaws March 18, 2010
William L. P. Cadwallader
I found this to be an excellent book to teach the Arc family of products. I have learned a lot. The work assignments in Chapter 5 are confusing because the author doesn't tell the reader what projections are to be used. Took about four hours to decipher the intent that could have been resolved with two words. The ESRI web site has changed since the book was written and there are other minor frustrations. I hope that in the next edition someone who is new to the GIS field goes through the book and provides feedback to the author on what doesn't work. However, all in all, it is an excellent, though slightly flawed resource.

Very Helpful February 16, 2010

The GIS Tutorial Workbook for Arcview 9 is very helpful. You can learn at your own pace, granted it does take a while to learn (a few hours per section - including the exercises). Everything is layed out including side notes. I like how it says what to correct or how you can change back to the original settings, which makes this workbook a good future reference as well. The pages are not overcrowded, so you don't feel overwhelmed with information overload in one page. The material is spread out nicely and not too wordy. Compared to the online ERSI tutorials/modules, this book is really user-friendly, because the online ERSI tutorials/modules are very wordy and they give a lot of sale pitch language that I could do without. (It already takes a good deal of time to do the online tutorials; I don't need to be bogged down with rubbish introductions.) However, the GIS Tutorial Workbook gets right to the point, which I like. Thank you for such a comprehensive workbook! Yay!
