The technology with which ArcExplorer is built is not currently supported by the Windows 3.x, Macintosh, or UNIX operating systems.

ArcExplorer is a GIS data viewer developed by ESRI.

ArcExplorer Version 1.1 Import Utility (import71): The ArcExplorer Version 1.1 Import Utility converts ARC/INFO interchange files ".e00" into ARC/INFO coverages, which then can be used in ArcExplorer. An .e00 file is an ARC/INFO coverage converted into an ASCII text file intended for exchange between two ARC/INFO systems on different platforms. They are not intended for compression, but they have become popular as exchange files. To convert an .e00 file to an ARC/INFO coverage, load import71.exe found in the arcexplr directory.

Supported formats:
Windows Bitmap--*.bmp, *.dib
TIFF (Tag Image File Format)--*.tif, *.tiff
ERDAS--*.gis, *.lan
BIL (Band interleaved by line) multiband images--*.bil
BIP (Band interleaved by pixel) multiband images--*.bip
BSQ (Band sequential) multiband images--*.bsq
IMPELL RLC (Run-length compressed) files--*.rlc
Sun Rasterfiles--*.rs, *.ras; *.sun

ArcExplorer can work on its own with local data sets or as a client to Internet data and map servers. ArcExplorer is built using MapObjects, ESRI's powerful collection of GIS and mapping components for application developers.

As a stand-alone application, ArcExplorer allows users to display and query a wide variety of standard data sources. With ArcExplorer you can:

Use ESRI shapefiles, ARC/INFO coverages, and SDE layers.
Display a wide variety of image formats.
Pan and zoom through multiple map layers.
Fully integrated with MapObjects IMS Version 2.0.
Download vector and image data.
Address matching by street address or intersection.
