What this book covers

Chapter 1, Introducing ArcGIS Pro, introduces ArcGIS Pro and explains some of its capabilities in relation to other ArcGIS Products. It also provides a general overview of its capabilities and discusses the installation and licensing requirements.

Chapter 2, Navigating the Ribbon Interface, introduces ArcGIS Pro's ribbon-based interface and commonly used interface panes or windows. It explains how to use it to access data, maps, and tools within an ArcGIS Pro project.

Chapter 3, Creating 2D Maps, shows you how to create 2D maps within the ArcGIS Pro project framework. You will learn how to add and manage layers, control symbology, label features, and configure other properties.

Chapter 4, Creating 3D Scenes, shows you how users can create 3D maps within their projects. You will learn how to add layers, extrude layers to show height, and apply 3D symbology.

Chapter 5, Creating and Working with Projects, introduces the concept of using projects to manage GIS content. You will learn how to create and organize a project. You will also learn how to create a template project.

Chapter 6, Creating a Layout, shows you how to create effective layouts using ArcGIS Pro.

Chapter 7, Creating Map Books Using Map Series, explains the process required to enable and configure the Map Series functionality so you can generate your own map books. Large maps are unwieldy and become difficult to use. Smaller maps just do not allow you to show the level of detail required when out in the field. A common practice is to create a map book or series for the area. ArcGIS Pro has built-in functionality for creating these map books, and this chapter will show you how.

Chapter 8, Learning to Edit Spatial Data, provides you with a basic understanding of the editing workflow in ArcGIS Pro and explains how to use many of the most commonly used tools to maintain and update your GIS data.

Chapter 9, Learning about Editing Tabular Data, explains how to edit and maintain the attribute data for the features in your GIS.

Chapter 10, Performing Analysis with Geoprocessing Tools, introduces many of the most commonly used tools, explains where they can be accessed, and covers what will determine the tools that are available to you within ArcGIS Pro.

Chapter 11, Creating and Using Tasks, shows how to create tasks for common workflows within your office to improve efficiency and standardization.

Chapter 12, Automating Processes with ModelBuilder and Python, introduces the basic concepts and skills needed to create simple models and Python scripts for ArcGIS Pro.

Chapter 13, Sharing Your Work with Others, illustrates different methods within ArcGIS Pro to share maps, data, and processes with others.

Chapter 14, Using Arcade Expressions for Labeling and Symbology, introduces the basic uses and syntax for Arcade. Arcade is a new lightweight expression language for ArcGIS. It allows you to create expressions that can generate text labels or control symbology.

GIS glossary, provides definitions and descriptions with examples relating to important GIS terminologies.
