ESRI MapIt 1.1 Step By Step Guide Now Available

For those wanting to get started with ESRI MapIt 1.1, there is now a step-by-step guide available. This guide comes bundled with everything you need including detailed instructions and screenshots. I wrote up post when MapIt was released around installation. You can find this here: http://geo.geek.nz/development/…

This guide is meant to help new users become familiar with MapIt by understanding some of the common workflows associated with viewing your business data on a map.  The guide is split into four sections:

• Importing your business data to SQL Server 2008
• Spatially enabling SQL Server Tables
• Client Applications: Silverlight
• Client Applications: SharePoint

Users are led through these workflows by a comprehensive readme which provides click-by-click instructions and the use of sample data included with the download. Once you’ve made it through through the guide you’ll get the full picture of how MapIt can help you visualize the patterns and trends in your business data and the different ways you can share these insights with others in your organization.

This guide can be downloaded here: http://www.esri.com/software/… This is a very comprehensive guide that should provide you with everything needed to get started with using MapIt as well at the ArcGIS API for Microsoft Silverlight/WPF.
