As we hear a lot of ESRI Produce arcobject/acrmap and a lot of arc-----, but when some one ask about the definition, we stuck
so here are some good definition which you can explain .
ADDRESSMATCH: Arc command. It uses to match addresses in an INFO data file against an address coverage and creates a point coverage containing locations of matched addresses.
AML: ARC Macro Language. It is a proprietary high-level algorithmic language for generating end-user applications in ArcInfo Workstation. AML allows you to create onscreen menus, use and assign variables, control statement execution, and get and use map or page unit coordinates. AML includes an extensive set of commands that can be used interactively or in AML programs (macros), as well as commands that report on the status of ArcInfo environment settings.
ArcCatalog: ArcCatalog allows users to browse, manage, create, and organize geographic and tabular data. In addition, ArcCatalog comes with support for several popular metadata standards to allow users to create, edit, and view information about the data. There are editors to enter metadata, a storage schema, and property sheets to view the data. With ArcCatalog users can view GIS data holdings, preview geographic information, view and edit metadata, work with tables, and define the schema structure for geographic data layers.
ArcGIS: ArcGIS is a comprehensive, integrated, scalable system introduced by ESRI that design to meet the needs of a wide range of GIS users.
ArcInfo: ArcInfo is the most powerful and functionally rich application in the ArcGIS product family by ESRI. In addition to all the functionality included in ArcView and ArcEditor, ArcInfo includes a complete ArcToolbox application and a full version of ArcInfo Workstation (ARC, ArcEdit, ArcPlot, AML, and all extensions). ArcInfo is the complete GIS data creation, update, query, mapping, and analysis system.
ArcMap: ArcMap is the application for viewing and editing geographic data and creating professional-quality maps, graphs, and reports.
ArcObjects: ArcObjects is a set of components developers use to programmatically enhance and extend ArcInfo, ArcEditor and ArcView. ArcObjects technology is based on the Component Object Model (COM). With ArcObjects, developers can add new tools or work flows to ArcInfo, ArcEditor, or ArcView software or extend the ArcGIS data model by adding new custom feature types.
ArcSDE: ArcSDE is a client/server software program that enables spatial data to be stored, managed, and quickly retrieved from leading commercial database management systems (DBMS).
ArcView: ArcView is a powerful GIS data visualization, query, analysis, and map creation solution. It provides interactive tools for exploring, selecting, displaying, editing, analyzing, symbolizing, and classifying data as well as for automatically creating, updating, and managing metadata.
