you use to create a new geoprocessing model?(Choose two.)
ArcGIS - ANSWER-a platform for designing and managing solutions through the
application of geographic knowledge. It enables you to perform deep analysis, gain a
greater understanding of your data, and perform high-level decision making.
ArcGIS 3D Analyst - ANSWER-Example of usage: with this extension, you could
analyze how the shadow of a proposed building will affect the neighboring buildings.
ArcGIS 3D Analyst - ANSWER-Example of usage: with this extension, you could build
surfaces of tree heights and crown cover from light detection and ranging (LiDAR) data
to estimate the biomass in a forest area.
ArcGIS 3D Analyst - ANSWER-This extension is used for creating, visualizing, and
analyzing three-dimensional data. It extends the functionality of ArcMap and ArcCatalog
but also includes two viewing applications: ArcGlobe and ArcScene.
ArcGIS Explorer - ANSWER-a free viewer that can be used to do the following: view,
query, and analyze spatial data; deliver authoritative data to a broad audience. Has both
the desktop and online version. Desktop version used for exploring, visualizing and
sharing geographic information and author presentations. Online viewer used to create
web maps, perform queries, and create dashboards and author presentations.
ArcGIS Explorer - ANSWER-Example of usage: An employee of TDOT could use this to
view and query data about road construction projects, query traffic data, and integrate
external map services and basemaps to create presentations for a public meeting.
ArcGIS for Desktop - ANSWER-Example of useage: A large organization could use this
to prepare maps for publishing and share them as map services and map packages in
ArcGIS Online.
ArcGIS for Desktop - ANSWER-Example of useage: Also can use the predefined
templates and simple wizards to create quality maps, a technician could use Coordinate
Geometry (COGO) tools to create features based on survey measurements.
ArcGIS for Desktop - ANSWER-Examples of usage: analyze spatial distribution of 911
calls and visualize the results as a series of maps and graphs.
ArcGIS for Desktop - ANSWER-used to author and edit maps and geospatial content. It
includes two applications: ArcMap and ArcCatalog
, ArcGIS for Desktop Extensions - ANSWER-products that add specialized capabilities
for advanced analysis and enhanced productivity to ArcGIS for Desktop. They give you
tools for performing sophisticated tasks such as raster geoprocessing, 3D analysis, and
network analysis.
ArcGIS for Mobile - ANSWER-this product consists of the following product suite:
ArcPad, ArcGIS for Windows Mobile, and ArcGIS for Smartphones and Tablets.
ArcGIS for Mobile - ANSWER-used to access maps and geospatial content on mobile
devices, including tablets and smartphones. It consists of ready-to-deploy applications

could use this to integrate statewide hazmat, transportation, and shelter status from
several GIS services, along with a weather data feed into one central web application to
support decisions that involve hazardous materials.
ArcGIS for Server - ANSWER-Example of usage: An employee of a weather agency
could use ArcGIS for Desktop to create an animation showing the progression of
hurricane paths from time-enabled data and then use this particular product to publish
the map as a GIS service that can be accessed through a web application.
ArcGIS for Server - ANSWER-Examples of usage: an employee of a city GIS dept could
use this to publish city map layers as GIS serves and make them available to the
general public via a web application.
ArcGIS for Server - ANSWER-used to create and distribute maps and geospatial
services over the web. It can be used for the following: publishing GIS information and
maps as web services, accessing GIS services through web applications, managing
data in an enterprise geodatabase.
ArcGIS for Server - ANSWER-Which ArcGIS product should you use to share GIS
maps so they can be accessed from within a web browser?
ArcGIS for Smartphones and Tablets - ANSWER-Example of usage: A water
department employee could use an ArcGIS for Windows Mobile application to view work
orders, find the water valves to shut off for servicing water features, add notes for the
