Summary
• Why analysis is important to situational awareness • How to integrate tradecraft into a geoprocessing model • How to publish to ArcGIS Server
Next Steps
1. Understand how to create a geoprocessing model
Technical Workshops
• Model Builder – An Introduction • Model Builder – Advanced Techniques • Geoprocessing with ArcGIS Server
Next Steps
1. Understand how to create a geoprocessing model 2. Examine workflow for what tasks could be automated – Hint look at repeatable actions
