The IER Map Display Extension to ESRI ArcView V3.2 is designed to enable users of the toxicity assessment to visualize analysis of toxicity indexes of the HCMC industrial zones. This image processing and manipulation is designed exclusively for ESRI ArcView Version 3.2. The interface helps users in numerically and graphically displaying toxicity indexes for wastes discharged by all industrial establishments located within HCMC metropolis region. The interface is available to all users with a minimum of operator ArcView GIS status. It is aimed primarily at providing nonexpert GIS users, i.e. users unfamiliar with the ESRI ArcView software. When a model is loaded into the ArcView it is possible to perform importing map data for viewing, comparison of extension maps both visually and numerically and to exporting analysis results into readily printing layouts. The extension is intended to equip DSF users with the tools they need to exploit DeltaMapper binary raster data for creating and maintaining their GIS content within the ESRI ArcView system. With the release of the IER Map Display GIS Extension for ArcView V3.2, additional graphical and database functionalities are available to users to improve their workflows. The IER Map Display Extension also provides a way to organize storing the user’s binary raster data sets into databases. It is the best not only for the software to perform data analysis but it is also an excellent recommendation to affectively later data processing performed by the other environmental software users

The documentation assumes the user has some knowledge of the ESRI ArcView package as the different basic ArcView operations are referred to without explanation. The user can find a full explanation of the ESRI ArcView operations in the ESRI ArcView software guide. In some cases the user may have to import additianl ESRI Extensions for ArcView (Spatial Analysis, Database, etc.) which are normally available together with the ESRI ArcView installation 2.1 Installation The setup process comprises only one running of the installation file (Setup- MapToxicity.exe). The user can use either the run command in WinXP Start-up menu or by double-click the set-up file in Window Explorer. A familiar welcoming window of IER Map Display installation process will be displayed and the user will have to follow all instructions apearing on the computer screen. If the installation file is not available, the user has an alternative to unzip intalation file “Steup.zip” into C drive. 2.1.1 System Requirements The user’s computer hardware and software should meet the following minimum requirements. (a) Hardware – PCU 1.2 MHz; RAM 256 MB; HD 20 GB. CD-ROM Drive. (d) Software – Window XP Home/Professional; ESRI ArcView GIS v.3.2 with Spatial Analysis, Database extensions The more powerful PC will enable the IER Map Display run faster and with better performance. Doc No Rev: 1 Date: December 2005 2 wlg1413863270.docToxcicity Analysis 2.1.2 Data Requirements Data used by the IER Map Display are toxicity indexes obtained from chemical and biological analysis of wastes discharged by 12 industrial zones located in HCMC metropolis area 2.1.3 Layout of Folders The organization of folders should be in hierarchical order as follows. o MapDisplay as parental level. o Map-IndZones, ToxicityData and Help as secondary level folders. A visual organization of the folders is presented in Figure 2.2. 2.2 Testing the Installation If the installation of the IER Map Display Extension was successfully, the menus and tools system of the ArcView will look like in Figure 2.3 when the user loads the extension into a ArvView project map (the user is advised to refer to ArcView User Guide for manage extensions in ArcView). Figure 2-3 Pull-down menus and tools created by the extension. Doc No Rev: 1 Date: December 2005 3 wlg1413863270.docToxcicity Analysis Figure 2.2 Folder organization The user has to follows every step described in the present report to make map analysis using standard data provided in the Installation CD-ROM. Doc No Rev: 1 Date: December 2005 4 wlg1413863270.docToxcicity Analysis 3 Using the Extension 3.1 General The IER Map Display Extension is accessed by selecting the appropriate name from the ArcView File pulldown menu and then clicking the ‘IER Map Display’ checkbox. When the extension starts up the user is presented with the display shown in Figure 3-1. This consists of new tool item and e new button in addition to default menus and tools of ESRI ArcView. Figure 3-1 IER Map Display Extension start-up screen Doc No Rev: 1 Date: December 2005 5 wlg1413863270.docToxcicity Analysis 3.2 Toxicity View The IER Map Display Extension enables user to visualise the toxicity data previously stored in a database file Figure 3-2 Accessing IER Toxicity tool When the toxicity tool is activated, by clicking the button , the user can press left-mouse button at any of 12 industrial zones (green cycles on the map) to get access to dialog window for examinning toxicity idexes as shown in Figure 3-3. Figure 3-3 Window for starting displaying toxicity values. Doc No Rev: 1 Date: December 2005 6 wlg1413863270.docToxcicity Analysis Figure 3-4 Pull-down combo box for showing toxicity at other IZ. The user can use this dialog window to brow to other IZ (Figure 3-4) for examinning their toxicity parameter values or to displaying graphs to compare toxicity levels from different IZs. 3.3 Analysis Toxicity Indexes As stated in the previous section, by using graph button in the dialog window the user can draw graphs to visually compare toxicity data sets. The user is also provided with the facilities to locate what IZ wastes are at critical toxicity levels or to display a variety of additional information and to change the configuration of the view. 3.3.1 Displaying Critical Values of Toxcicity Indexes A “X” sign is displayed closely to a value of index means that index has value greater than allowed value (standard value or tolerance). An example of an IZ with many critical toxicity levels is presented in Figure 3-5. Doc No Rev: 1 Date: December 2005 7 wlg1413863270.docToxcicity Analysis Figure 3-5 Critical values were identified by an “X” sign. 3.3.2 Graphically Comparison of Toxicity Indexes The process to get graphs for comparison values of toxicity from different IZ is started by pressing button “Do thi” located in the lower-left corner of the dialog window (Figure 3.6). Figure 3-6 Button “Do thi” for starting graph session. Figure 3-7 Selection of index to be analysed. Doc No Rev: 1 Date: December 2005 8 wlg1413863270.docToxcicity Analysis Once the desired index is selected, the tool will draw a graph as shown in Figure 3- 8. The user then can use ESRI ArcView tools either to modify or to print the graph. Figure 3-8 Graph for toxicity comparison. The user is expected to save the selected graphs to new names because all these graphs will be removed in case the button “OK” is pressed. 3.4 Database Management The IER Map Display Extension provides users with the facilities to manage the toxicity databases including standard values by using the pull-doen menu (Figure 3- 9.
