Learn the latest version of ArcGIS Pro with the newest edition of this bestselling series.
Getting to Know ArcGIS Pro 2.8 introduces the tools and functions of ArcGIS Pro, the powerful desktop GIS application. Geographic information systems (GIS) software is making a huge impact in businesses and organizations with mapping and analytic capabilities.
Getting to Know ArcGIS Pro 2.8 uses practical project workflows to teach best practices for readers of all skill levels. Readers will explore data visualizations, build a geodatabase, discover 3D GIS, create maps for web and physical presentations, and more. With over 300 full-color images, Getting to Know ArcGIS Pro 2.8 clarifies complicated processes such as developing a geoprocessing model, using Python to write a script tool, and creating space-time cubes for analysis.
Tasks, models, and Python scripts are often used together. For example, a task step might entail running a geoprocessing tool, which might be a custom script or model tool built using Python or ModelBuilder, respectively. It is helpful to understand all three environments, at least minimally, so that you can determine how to incorporate them into your own workflows. You can use the three environments to reproduce your workflows easily and share them with your organization and the ArcGIS community. Python is a programming language that, in the GIS context, is used to script geoprocessing workflows and build custom geoprocessing tools. You can type Python commands from the Python window in ArcGIS Pro. You can also install Python for ArcGIS Pro to run Python commands and scripts outside the application. ArcPy is the name of the Python site package that allows you to run ArcGIS commands from Python.
Each chapter begins with a prompt describing a real-world scenario in a different industry to help readers understand how ArcGIS Pro can be applied widely to solve problems. At the end of each chapter, a summary and glossary help reinforce the skills learned. For advanced users, Python, the scripting language of ArcGIS, provides a way to write custom scripting functions to help automate ArcGIS workflows. In addition, tasks can be created and defined for organizational users who are required to follow specific workflow steps.
This edition has been completely updated for use with ArcGIS Pro 2.8. Other updates include new chapters on ArcGIS Online and geocoding.
The Getting to Know series has been teaching readers about GIS for over twenty years. Ideal for students, self-learners, and professionals who want to learn the premier GIS desktop application, Getting to Know ArcGIS Pro 2.8 is a textbook and desk reference designed to show users how they can use ArcGIS Pro successfully on their own.
