Introduction
Introduction
This reference guide is designed to provide an easy and quick reference for those wishing to use the ESRI® command language at the ArcGIS® command line and for those writing scripts.
All commands are referred to as tools, scripts, or models and are maintained in toolsets within the ArcGIS toolboxes. A toolbox can contain tools, toolsets, and scripts and is organized according to the collection of geoprocessing commands it contains. A toolset can contain tools, toolsets, and scripts and is organized according to the geoprocessing commands it contains. A tool is a single geoprocessing command. A script is a set of instructions usually stored in a file and interpreted, or com- piled, at run time. A model consists of one process or, more commonly, multiple processes strung together.
This guide describes the following toolboxes:
Analysis Toolbox Geocoding Toolbox Cartography Toolbox Linear Referencing Toolbox Conversion Toolbox Spatial Analyst Toolbox Coverage Toolbox Spatial Statistics Toolbox Data Management Toolbox 3D Analyst™ Toolbox
Each toolbox contains a list of the toolsets and tools as they are organized within ArcToolbox™.
The Index section at the end of this guide contains an alphabetical list of each tool, script, toolset, and toolbox.
All tools are available with the ArcInfo™ license or the extension they are associated with. However, many are available for use with ArcView® or ArcEditor™ (sometimes with limited functionality). Those available with ArcView and ArcEditor are denoted with a , and those available with ArcEditor are denoted with a .
