For those of you who are not aware, ESRI publishes video tutorials on its free subscription channel at Viddler.com on its wide range of products.

Here’s one interesting video on how one can enhance the search and find capabilities of ArcGIS Explorer by adding a Geonames Search task that is available from the resource center.

The Explorer team did a good work by not just running through the process of finding places using this task, but rather had a story with an objective to find a place in Glacier National Park, Montana.

Geoprocessing is an important feature of any GIS software application. If the application being talked about is ArcGIS, then there are numerous geoprocessing functions that come in-built with the application. One of the simpler ways of accessing these functions is through the ArcToolbox, which is a collection of several of these features packaged into a single utility.

Here’s the link to a podcast on “What is ArcToolbox ?” describing what it is, its features and how it fits into our GIS workflow.

It feels good to be back at blogging, with lots of new thoughts to share and plenty of time at hand. This post after a year’s break is on the mashup capabilities that are coming in-built with ESRI’s ArcGIS 9.3 version.

ESRI demonstrated these mashup capabilities at the Where 2.0 conference in Burlingame, California between 13th and 14th May,2008. ArcGIS 9.3 has been included with JavaScript APIs that provide end users with the ability to integrate GIS based web-services from ArcGIS Server with other web content.

Here’s the link to the press release from ESRI on this new feature http://www.esri.com/news/releases/08_2qtr/arcgis9_3_mashup.html.
