Creating and Modifying Tables

• Using ArcView tables

• Tables are just as important as coordinate data in a GIS

• Tables are used to hold attribute data, and attributes control the “what” in a GIS

• Tables can be used to hold data that are not explicitly spatial in nature (related data, e.g., forest stand properties, sample data)

• Tables are the source of all statistics, summaries, classifications, legends, and charts in the GIS

• Tables are a graphical representation of tabular data.

• Tables have their own GUI, and their own set of operations.

• ArcView tables can come from a variety of sources

• Multiple tables can be linked or joined based on common field. values._
