Abstract
Overcoming Barriers to ArcView Technology Transfer in USDA-NRCS
Track: Agriculture
Author(s): Wes Standish, Mark Evans, Robin Kloot
Earth Sciences and Resources Institute at the University of South Carolina (Esri-USC) has partnered with the USDA's Natural Resources Conservation Service in South Carolina (SC-NRCS) to assist in the transfer of GIS technology. The primary role of Esri-USC is to provide ArcView training at the field office level. While working with conservationists in more than 40 counties throughout South Carolina and Mississippi, Esri-USC has recognized several barriers that hinder the ability to learn and understand ArcView and the Customer Service Toolkit. This paper discusses these obstacles and recommends various training methods that enable one to teach ArcView more effectively to SC-NRCS staff.
