Make Better Maps with help from the ESRI Mapping Center
Posted on April 22nd, 2008 by Neill Jobe
from the ESRI Mapping Center website:
Mapping Center is about the use of ArcGIS in the graphic delivery of geographic information. Its goal is to help you make great looking maps by using the same cartographic concepts and techniques that professional cartographers use.
After exploring the site, I found there are really good suggestions and tips on map
creation as well as all the cartography basics. The ESRI Mapping Center is a great resource for those GIS professionals who want to add that extra touch to their map layouts. There is even an “Ask a Cartographer” link where you can ask questions about your own map layouts. You can also download Data, Styles, Expressions, Models & Scripts, .MXD’s, etc. for sample maps posted on the site.
