ArcExplorer® (Windows 95 OR NT 4.0 Users Only)




ArcExplorer Project Files

The ArcExplorer project files are located in the arcexplr directory on Volume 1 of this CD-ROM set. These projects files have been designed for users that do not have ArcView® to view the spatial data provided on this CD-ROM set.

Eight ArcExplorer project files (found in the arcexplr directory) have been developed using the geographic information system (GIS) databases stored on this CD-ROM. These pre-made views combine the various South Carolina databases in an easy-to-use format for viewing and analyzing the data. These files can be accessed by starting the ArcExplorer software, and choosing the File Open option. For more instructions, please see on the on-line help files.

System requirements and installation instructions are given below.
