GIS HELP and RESOURCES
Please consider the following self-help GIS resources:
- Contact Colleen Sullivan,
Dawn's grad student campus GIS assistant.
Her Spring 2012 office hours are Mon. 9-10 and Wed. 1-2 in the Digital Earth Lab (Wilkinson 210).
- Send your question to the OSU Campus listserve (you don't need to be
subscribed)
arcinfo@lists.oregonstate.edu
To subscribe to the arcinfo list CLICK

- Don't forget about the desktop documentation that comes with the software, or ArcGIS Desktop Help Online. The documentation is quite complete and often holds the answers to common questions if students will take the time and initiative to look there.
- Try the ESRI Knowledge Base and Support Center
- Check out the ArcGIS Desktop Tutorials or the
ESRI YouTube Channel
- Try the GIS Cookbook or the University of Arkansas Libraries' ArcGIS 9 Tutorial
-
ArcUser Online (www.esri.com/news/arcuser/index.html)
- Anyone can
order ESRI documentation at a 30% discount via our site license. See
www.geo.oregonstate.edu/esri/site2.html#docs.
These are great long-term resources, if you need hardcopy.
- Also, the College of Forestry has a GIS help desk and tips page:
www.fsl.orst.edu/helpdesk/gis/
www.fsl.orst.edu/helpdesk/gis/intro.html
- Dawn has also put together a couple of GIS resource pages for self-help:
dusk.geo.orst.edu/arc/links.html
dusk.geo.orst.edu/de/de_tips.html
dusk.geo.orst.edu/buffgis/bufflinks.html
www.geo.oregonstate.edu.html/esri/esri_distrib.html#train
It will take a while to search through them, but hopefully they will
be of great help.
- Also, the Valley Library has a dedicated GIS workstation on the
2nd floor, complete with ArcGIS 9.x, ArcView 3.x., and other goodies. Contact
the librarians
in the Valley Library, 3rd floor map room for more information.
