Key words
CAD, GIS, geografphic information systems
Objectives
CAD - Using advanced 2D drawing techniques. Using basic 3D commands. Simple 3D presentations.
GIS - Introduction to ArcGis with the accent on consulting and manipulating data. Students must have enough knowledge of the usable tools to work within an existing GIS database. Students must have enough knowledge of the usable tools to work within an existing GIS database.
Topics
CAD - Advanced 2D techniques. Working with blocks, attributes, OLE-objects. Simple 3D techniques. 3D presentations of a garden. Introduction of 3D Studie Viz.
GIS - Working with Arc-Map. Consulting existing data. Visualising and editing techniques. Importing raster and bitmap images, using these images for creating thematical maps. Creating lay-outs. Exploring the dynamic link with Microsoft Access within Arc-map. Filtering, manipulating and presenting Gis tables in Ms Access.
Prerequisites
Basic knowledge AutoCAD 2D
Final Objectives
CAD - The students must be able to design gardens and landscapes in 2D. He (she) can use blocks and attributes within a planting design. Inserting and editing OLE-objects is also one of the objectives. The student can convert his 2D drawings into simple 3D presentations (virtual mass maquette) and reproduce simple 3D views of his/her project.
GIS - Basic skills in a GIS environment. The student is able to open, analyse and present his data in a useful manner. Therefore the student is taught the basic commands within Arc-GIS and MS-Access.
