3.x Viewer and ArcView Demonstration Movies
This page contains links to Lotus ScreenCam movies that demonstrate many tasks available in the MassGIS Data Viewer, Watershed Tools, and regular ArcView.
Steps:
- Download Lotus ScreenCam Player if you do not have this free software (click with right mouse button on the link and choose "Save Target As" or "Save As").
- Download the .exe files by clicking on the file name with the right mouse button and choose "Save Target As" or "Save As"; you will then be prompted to save the file locally. The file you download will be a compressed self-extracting executable file.
- Run the downloaded .exe file by double-clicking its icon in the Windows Explorer to extract the .scm file.
- Play the .scm file in ScreenCam Player.
