LBL Socio-Economic-Environmental-Demobraphic Information System (SEEDIS) computer mapping systems workbook III. Programs DOBEDO--MAPEDIT--CARTE. [ZING]
The aim of this writeup is to provide an analyst with sufficient information to make computer maps of socio-economic or environmental data. The writeup is concerned primarily with the execution of programs rather than a comprehensive and exhaustive treatment of theoretical details. Illustrative examples are included for the major programs, including a visual, step-by-step map design workbook for the CARTE program. The writeup is divided into three parts. Part A describes the LBL Socio-Economic-Environmental-Demographic Information System, of which the computer mapping system is a part. Part B, a tutorial, covers the polygon-based mapping system and its component programs. Part C gives an illustrated introduction to the grid-based mapping system at LBL. The Appendices include a User Manual for the batch mode versions of the programs MAPEDIT, ZING, and CARTE. Appendix D includes a variety of color maps produced from various projects using the SEEDIS data base. (RWR)
