To view zipped map file: 1. Install ArcGIS Explorer Desktop [free] [http://www.esri.com/software/arcgis/explorer-desktop/download] 2. Download the CSS Samoa BaseMap.zip file. [Also at the top of the main map page.] 3. Unzip this file FIRST to the "C:\CSS_GIS_Explorer" directory You only need to do this ONCE. (MUST use this directory for maps to work. This is the base map upon which all the other maps are drawn.) 4. Unzip other files (eg: Jackmond78.zip) to the "C:\CSS_GIS_Explorer" directory as well. (Again, MUST use this directory for ALL maps to work properly.) 5. Open: [map file].nmf (eg: J78_Savaii.nmf) from the "C:\CSS_GIS_Explorer" diectory. (file should open in "ArcGIS Explorer Desktop") |
