🛰️ The Global Positioning System and ArcGIS – A Complete Guide to GPS Mapping Workflows (Third Edition)
“The Global Positioning System and ArcGIS – Third Edition” is a comprehensive guide that bridges the gap between GPS data collection in the field and seamless integration into ArcGIS for powerful spatial analysis. This updated edition covers the latest GPS hardware, mobile apps, GNSS enhancements, and real-time data correction methods.
The book walks you through practical workflows such as setting coordinate systems, importing GPX and shapefiles, working with Collector for ArcGIS, creating geodatabases from field data, using differential corrections, and building attribute-rich spatial layers. It also explores how to integrate GPS tracks into mapping projects for surveying, environmental monitoring, infrastructure inspection, and navigation planning.
This book is ideal for:
- 🌲 Field data collectors and survey technicians using handheld GPS devices
- 🗃️ GIS analysts importing, cleaning, and processing GPS data
- 📍 Researchers using mobile GIS for environmental or health data tracking
- 🚜 Infrastructure teams working on utility mapping and field validation
With easy-to-follow examples and ArcGIS-based workflows, this book empowers you to turn raw GPS data into actionable spatial intelligence — whether you’re mapping trails or managing utility networks.
