Forester’s/ Farmer’s Toolkit Built-in!
4
Heads-Up-Digitize tracts and stands from georeferenced
aerial photography. Digitizing tools
allow for shared borders to eliminate gaps and overlaps.
4
Split
Tract/Stands into smaller areas
along borders or other boundaries. Trace the border based on georeferenced
aerial photography or use existing roads/streams.
4 Combine
Tracts/Stands and join along common boundaries to form larger areas.
4
Create “Islands”, or areas that are completely
surrounded by other areas. These can easily be created within a larger tract
or stand. The area of the “island” is automatically
subtracted from the larger tract or stand to show net acreage.
4
Register
Photos using GPS points or topo
maps. View your photo and topo map side-by-side for easy referencing. Once your aerial photos are georeferenced, you can use them as
a backdrop for digitizing new tracts and stands.
4 Add Roads,
Streams, Structures, and other Features commonly encountered in
the field. Easily add endangered species, forest roads, RR lines, power
lines, towers, bridges, wetlands,
etc., to your maps.
Also find these powerful features in PC-GIS 3.8 PRO:
Geo-Tiff Support
Import and
display georeferenced TIF files and MRSID® format images into your Map. Use
DOQ, DRG, TFW files or other Geo-Tiff files to enhance your GIS data. Also,
improved Georeferencing of TIF, JPG, and BMP image files.
Professional Plotting
Output
Produce
professional-looking maps using either the Quick Plot option or Custom Plot
option. Use drag and drop placement for your company logo, headers, footers,
legends, and other text. Includes standard mapping features such as: legends,
scale bars, and north arrows. Once the plot format is complete, you can save
the layout for future use.
Symbol and
Pattern Libraries
Customize your
map using symbols and patterns. For standard symbols, PC-GIS 3.8 PRO offers
multiple libraries to choose from (including transparent hatch patterns). You
can also combine existing symbols to create your own symbols.
Geographic
Feature Search
Search for
Features within a user-defined area. Search three ways: 1) by Radius from given
Point or 2) for Points contained in specific Area Features; or 3) by Entire
Map.
Enhanced
Classification
Classify by
unique value, equal interval, quantile, or custom classification scheme.
Assign symbols and patterns to classes.
Cumulative and
Bearing Measurements
Measure
cumulative distance between features and also get valuable heading
information.
Enhanced Topic
Identification
Separate Topic
name for each Feature collected by GPS based on Feature name. Registered
imagery is also assigned to its own Topic based on its file name.
User-Friendly
Icons
Icons for Measure
Area, Measure Length, Measure Distance, Coordinate Information, Display
Photo, Shape Property and more.
Define your own
Coordinate Systems
Use this powerful
feature of PC-GIS 3.8 PRO to create your own coordinate system or datum for
your jobs.
Feature Data
Import: ASCII, Shape file, DXF
PC-GIS 3.8 PRO
allows you to supplement (import) your GPS maps with Feature data from a
variety of data sources: ArcView® Shapefiles, AutoCAD®
DXF files, ASCII and other PC-GIS Job files.
Once your map is complete, the Feature data can be exported into several
different GIS and database formats (ESRI Shapefile, DXF, ASCII, MS ODBC,
Intergraph Microstation). Simply select the export format from the
pull-down Data Source box and then click on the export icon.
Powerful Mapping
Functions
Your Map can be
created using a variety of data sources: GPS Feature files, DXF files, ASCII
Files, ESRI® Shapefiles (.SHP), databases, and digital images. The
geographic and image data in your Map is automatically organized into layers
to facilitate map viewing and data management. Your completed Map can be
displayed in UTM, SPC, LLA or even a user-defined Coordinate System.
Once your Map is created,
it can be plotted complete with custom legends, labels and objects. Each
Feature in the Map can be labeled by Feature name or by specific value.
Tailor the size, style or color of labels shapes and text to suit your needs.
Impressive Visual
Tools: Images & Objects
PC-GIS 3.8 PRO
enhances your data with digital images (.BMP, .JPG, .TIF) and even multimedia
objects conforming to Microsoft's® OLE standard. Images, such as
aerial photos, can be georeferenced to your Map within PC-GIS 3.8 PRO. Create
new Features from your image using "heads-up digitizing". Vividly
describe Features by linking descriptive objects like video/audio clips,
documents and spreadsheets to a specific Point, Line or Area.
Resource and Data
Management
PC-GIS 3.8 PRO
offers a number of powerful data analysis and management functions. Analyze
the Feature, Attribute and Value data in your Map using powerful Filter,
Search and Classification tools. With classification, you can create data
subgroups or color-coded classes. Calculate Feature areas and lengths or measure
map distances at the click of a button. View your attribute and value data in
spreadsheet form for quick reference and editing.
Export Feature
Data from PC-GIS 3.8 PRO to your Database Program
If you need to
perform more extensive analysis or reporting functions, export your map data
directly to a number of databases such as Access®, dBASE®,
FoxPro® and other Microsoft® ODBC compliant programs.
PC-GIS data can then be joined with your existing GIS database. Finally, you
can import all your data, or only a portion of data, back into PC-GIS 3.8
PRO.
ADDITIONAL
INFORMATION
PC-GIS 3.8 PRO combines CMT's proven GIS project management utilities with
powerful mapping functions in one package. It can be used as part of a
complete system with a CMT GPS data collector or as a stand-alone
resource-mapping program.
Best of all, you don't need to be a GIS expert to use PC-GIS 3.8 PRO.
Many of the functions available in more complicated GIS or mapping programs
are readily accessible and easy to learn. When you need advanced
capabilities, PC-MAP/GIS 3.8 provides power beyond standard mapping programs
with the support of Microsoft's®; Open DataBase Connectivity
(ODBC), Object Linking & Embedding (OLE), and Advanced Programming
Interface (API).
