Use Case 1: Setting Up a Course Account
Steps:1. Create the course account using your
email2. User name, first name and last name
are personalized for the course3. Register your Esri global account 4. In this case, log in with
che_102_fall_2011 + password
Use Case 1: Salton Sea Chemistry
Zip shapefile
Scenario:Data layers are exported from ArcMap as shapefiles. They are zipped and dropped into ArcGIS
Explorer Online to create layers of a map. Features can then be added
by students.

Upload Layer Packages (.lpk)
ArcGIS OnlineUsed for sharing layer (.lpk) and map (.mpk) packages, as well as addresses to
map services
Scenario:Layer packages (land cover, roads, and collection points) were created in ArcGIS Desktop. Those layers were output as layer package files and uploaded to ArcGIS Online. The .lpk files were then accessed by ArcGIS Explorer Desktop.
