ABSTRACT

This manual provides training for student interns in Geographic Information Systems
(GIS). The manual provides an overview of GIS and uses standard operating procedures
generated at the Environmental Management Technical Center (EMTC). Included are
exercises for digitizing, editing, attributing, projecting, mapjoining, manipulating,
analyzing, and displaying geographic data. Training with this manual allows students to
receive hands-on experience with GIS to prepare them for projects at the EMTC.
