ArcGIS Pro – Interface

Exercise 1

Getting Started with ArcGIS Pro

Map and Layer Authoring
2D Maps and 3D Maps

• 2D Maps and 3D maps are similar…

- Have layers, coordinate system, bookmarks…

• …but they usually have different goals

- Different symbology, including different classification fields (eg: Utility
Poles)

• Some 3D layers aren’t useful in 2D

- Elevation surfaces, Multipatches, Extruded features etc…
Solution: 2 types of maps

• Maps (2D) and Scenes (3D)

- .MXDs  Maps
- .SXDs / .3DDs  Scenes in Local or Global view

• You can create new Maps and Scenes

- Then add in data, set coordinate systems, etc.
• You can convert a Map into a new Scene
- And vice versa
• You can also:
- Copy layers between them
- Re-use Bookmarks between them
- Link them together for interactive navigation
Layout Enhancements

• Multiplelayouts
• Scenes (3D maps) in layout
• Layout contents
• Map decoupled from the layout
Map Automation
Continue to use arcpy.mapping scripts with some modifications

• Scriptredundant mapping workflows

• Create map books

• Update projects, maps and layers (i.e. data sources,

symbology)
• Automate the sharing of maps via export or publishing

• What changes?
- Python 3.4
- Projects (.aprx)
- Layer file changes
- Multiple layouts
Authoring Maps & Layers

• Author maps and layers for use across your organization

- Consistency for all editors
- Lessen learning curves

• Important aspects for editing

- Feature templates and group templates
- Symbology
- Snapping

• Author additional parameters for 3D editing

- Elevation
- Extrusion
 Z Aware Layers

• Layerscan be defined to support Z

(elevation)
- Create new feature class that are Z aware
- Convert existing 2D feature classes to 3D
feature classes
- Import 3D vector data from other formats (e.g.,
CAD, KML, etc)

• 2D
layers can still participate in 3D
scenes
- Draped on the ground or surface
- Visualized with height using extrusion
 Layer Elevation & Scene Surfaces

• 3D
layers display at different
elevations each with unique
behavior/capabilities:
- On the ground
- Relative to the ground
- At an absolute height

• Elevation
surfaces enable you to
view layers on, above, or below
them

• 2D
layers can only be set to the ‘on
the ground’
 3D Symbols

• All
point features can be symbolized
with 3D models
- Browse and choose in gallery
- Use your own 3D models

• Change size through attribute edits

• Preset
layers provide out of the box 3D
symbols for key layer types:
- Trees
- Ground
- More to come…
Creating a new map or scene
1. On the Insert tab, in the Project group, click New Map drop-down
menu.
2. Click:
• New Map
• New Scene
• Or New Basemap

Import a map or map package

• You can import existing documents created in ArcMap (.mxd), ArcGlobe
(.3dd), or ArcScene (.sxd)
• When you import an ArcMap map document, at least one map and one
layout are added to the project.
1. On the Insert tab, in the Project group, click Import Map
2. Browse or Search for maps to import
3. Click one or more maps to add to project
4. Click Select,
Adding Data to a map

Continual improvements to vector overlay

With better/more correct analysis results

Better distance calculations/geodesic
Analysis in ArcGIS Pro
ArcGIS Pro provides incredible capabilities for performing analysis
in 2d and 3d.
Performance (~20%) + scalability + visualization

Geoprocessing

Geoprocessing
Processing geographic data

Geoprocessing is a framework and set

of tools for processing geographic and
related data. The large suite of
geoprocessing tools can be used to
perform spatial analysis or manage GIS
data in an automated way.
Analysis Tab
If you have a layer active in the Contents pane, the Appearance tab is activated
that allows you to set the properties of that layer.

• Apply, edit and create functions
 Geoprocessing in ArcGIS Pro
Familiar user experience with some key productivity
improvements.

Most tools, models, and Python scripts that work in ArcMap will
work in Pro.
ArcObjects-based custom tools are not supported.

Analyze for Pro tool checks models and scripts for unsupported
tools, data, and Python code.
Geoprocessing pane

You find and run geoprocessing tools in

the Geoprocessing pane.
