ArcMap
ArcMap is the central application in ArcGIS Desktop. It is the GIS application used for all map-based tasks, including cartography, map analysis, and editing. In this application, you work with maps. Maps have a page layout
containing a geographic window, or a data frame, with a series of layers, legends, scalebars, North arrows, and other elements. ArcMap offers different ways to view a map's geographic data and layout views in which you can perform a broad range of advanced GIS tasks.
ArcCatalog
The ArcCatalog application helps you organize and manage all of your GIS information (maps, globes, datasets, models, metadata, services, and so on). It includes tools to:
Browse and find geographic information.
Record, view, and manage metadata.
Define geodatabase schemas and designs.
Administer an ArcGIS Server.
Search for and discover GIS data on local networks and the Web.
GIS users apply ArcCatalog to organize, find, and use GIS data as well as to document their data holdings using standards-based metadata. A GIS database administrator uses ArcCatalog to define and build geodatabases. A GIS server administrator uses ArcCatalog to administer the GIS server framework.
