Creating a model
You can create a model from either ArcMap or ArcCatalog. To create a model, perform the
following steps:
1. Create a folder in the
c:\gdb
folder and name it
myTools
.
2. Open
ArcCatalog
, point the cursor to the
Geoprocessing
menu, and then click on
ModelBuilder
.
Note
You can also use ArcMap to work with ArcToolbox.
3. Bring up the

dows next to each other.
4. In the
ArcToolbox
window, expand
Data Management Tools
and
Workspace
,
and then drag the
Create File GDB
tool to the
Model
window as illustrated in the
