This tutorial demonstrates how regression analysis has been implemented in ArcGIS, and explores some of the special considerations you’ll want to think about whenever you use regression with spatial data.
Regression analysis allows you to model, examine, and explore spatial relationships, to better understand the factors behind observed spatial patterns, and to predict outcomes based on that understanding. Ordinary Least Squares regression (OLS) is a global regression method. Geographically Weighted Regression (GWR) is a local, spatial, regression method that allows the relationships you are modeling to vary across the study area.

These formulas are slightly modified from Army (1973). They are accurate to within less than a meter within a given grid zone. The original formulas include a now obsolete term that can be handled more simply – it merely converts radians to seconds of arc. That term is omitted here but discussed below.

Cartographic Quality: ArcMap to Adobe Illustrator for Publication
Author(s): Ralph Wagnitz
ArcMap map production has improved considerably in recent ArcGIS 9.x. However, in many cases maps must be refined further to high-quality maps for publication. Costs may be important for for post-production if maps should be sent to a graphic artist. In a recent project Ralph Wagnitz (Author of this paper) used Adobe Illustrator to produce presentation style graphics from ArcMap exports. The methodology was unique in that it requires no additional software or filters for export or import, while maintaining the geographical integrity in Illustrator. ArcMap was used for all data creation and manipulation of data, such as smoothing and generalization. This paper provides an overview of the processes used to display and discuss cartographic examples.

Download for free ebook “GIS for Public Safety An annotated guide to ArcGIS tools & procedures” by Joel M. Caplan, Ph.D.
This book focuses on ESRI’s ArcGIS functionality and presents all of the tools and procedures that are commonly used by public safety researchers and practitioners. It gives simple steps for descriptive, exploratory, and explanatory mapping tasks and includes concise but meaningful discussions to let you critically assess and accurately apply the software to your own unique specialty. This provides a solid foundation for advanced spatial thinking and permits you to utilize GIS technology in your own innovative ways. This book is intended for an introductory audience, but GIS users at all skill levels will find value in it as a reference manual. “Introductory” does not mean limited content. Rather, it means that the focus of the book is on the technical aspect of GIS mapping.

The tutorial is a free 60 minutes online seminar, which presents the latest version of ArcGIS Explorer and covers the following topics:
Geopublisher is a application to generate & publish multimedia atlases & has been developed to overcome the technical obstacles in publishing geo-data. The targeted users are scientists & institutions that need to communicate their results to the general public. The exported atlases are user-friendly & can therefore easily be used by people who are not familiar with GIS.
From video tutorial below you will learn the steps you require to generate & export a basic atlas using the free Geopublisher program. The video takes about 5 minutes & its purpose is to show the basic steps needed to generate a first atlas with Geopublisher. » Read more: Video tutorial GIS : How to create an atlas with Geopublisher in 5 minutes
Foresters, owner makers, and businesses are using GIS to measure and support the forest’s natural ability to neat carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from the atmosphere and reduce the greenhouse effect on the climate. This free ESRI Best Practices booklet includes case studies about using GIS for forest carbon management. Learn about other GIS solutions for countering climate change.
