I have a Bachelor of Science in Applied Geoinformatics, with my main areas of study being Geography and Environmental Studies, GIS, Computer Science and Information Systems. I have always had a passion for computers and geography, so studying and working in the GIS field has given me the best of both worlds.

My questions/answers will be written in South African (UK) English - please do not "correct" my spelling.

2d	comment	ArcGIS 10.1 Model cannot be transferred between Win7 and Win8 machines The permissions could be the issue, as I have full admin rights on both Windows 7 and Windows 8 PCs.
2d	comment	ArcGIS 10.1 Model cannot be transferred between Win7 and Win8 machines I have to disagree with your above comment (see my answer to this question). On a daily basis I work with models syncing between my Win 8 Pro 64 bit and Win 7 Enterprise 64 bit computers, without an issue. Your comment is a blanket statement, when it should be "It appears that the model cannot be transferred between platforms" in your particular situation. If it works in a different scenario, then (theoretically) it should be able to work for other people as well.

May 13	comment	importing coordinates via a csv file does not work What software do you have available? You seem to be implying you have ArcMap, but which version? How was the data captured?
May 9	comment	Search cursor stops selecting after two iterations @artwork21 ArcMap now crashes after running the first two selections successfully. Actually, now that I've placed the `del row` object in the same place it was before, it still crashes after running the first two selections!
May 8	revised	Search cursor stops selecting after two iterations updated code
May 8	awarded	Nice Question
May 7	comment	Search cursor stops selecting after two iterations A colleague took the same script and ran it in ArcMap 10, and it worked, no adjustments made. I tried running it from Eclipse and I got the same issue. It seems like it was by chance that the script worked once last week, after about the 5th try, and has not worked correctly since.
May 7	awarded	Informed
May 7	comment	Search cursor stops selecting after two iterations @artwork21 It still only runs the first two rows, exports the images, and then finishes executing.
May 7	comment	Search cursor stops selecting after two iterations @Kevin there is no selection on the layer, when it did work last week I ran it inside a blank mxd so the layer was not present.
May 7	comment	Search cursor stops selecting after two iterations @artwork21 I've checked and realised I did not have that in my script, although it ran fine without it last week. I'll add in `del row` now and check if it works.

May 6	comment	Search cursor stops selecting after two iterations Yes I am, forgot to add in the last line.

May 6	accepted	Using matplotlib to create and export graphs automatically from ArcMap
May 6	comment	Using matplotlib to create and export graphs automatically from ArcMap My main concern was performing the conditional colouring of the chart (point 3 of my workflow), but now that you have pointed it out that I can do it in Python (that should have been more obvious to me), matplotlib is looking more promising. Also I didn't mean that I would use VBA with Excel, I was just mentioning that I had done VBA, so translating it into python would have a been a bit easier. I don't have the sample data yet which is why I couldn't really explain more of what I want to do, but I think your way is the way to go.

May 6	comment	Symbology count in database form While this method would work, it is unnecessary to leave the ArcGIS environment to calculate a count based on unique values.
