B. Which ArcGIS Desktop software will facilitate

ArcGIS Desktop allows you to analyze your data
and author geographic knowledge, to examine relationships, to test
predictions, and ultimately to make better decisions.
It is available in three license levels:
ArcInfo, ArcEditor, and ArcView, that share the same core applications,
user interface, and development environment.
Each license level provides additional GIS
functionality as you move from ArcView to ArcEditor to ArcInfo.
Optional ArcGIS Desktop extensions offer
specialized tools and additional capabilities to enhance your analysis
capabilities.
