Hi,

I am doing research for my master degree and I need the following maps:
1. Satellite mosaic of Canada in winter
2. Satellite mosaic of Canada in summer
3. Map of Canadian rivers

Could anyone help me to get the above maps or direct me to the specialist or industrial who created the maps.

Any help will be much appreciated.

susantos,

It looks like you are going to have a long road ahead. An mxd is essentially a project that you then add data to, ArcGIS supports many file formats of data, see:

http://webhelp.esri.com/arcgisdesktop/9.3/index.cfm?TopicName=Data_formats_supported_in_ArcGIS

Tiff files are an ideal raster format for ArcGIS.

Anthony

Thank you Anthony,

I went to the website and found mosaic Canada but in TIFF image format. I need maps in the format that I could edit using ArcGIS because I need to create new maps based on the three maps that I need.
I am just learning how to use ArcGIS. Could we edit TIFF image using ArcGIS. So far I thought that I need in .mxd format.

Thanks

Sylvia
