Goal: The goal of this workshop is to introduce you to the ArcGIS Pro software application and collections of online GIS data that are particularly useful for mapping and analysis of natural and managed landscapes.
Workshop Content: This workshop is designed for participants with little to no GIS experience. Following a brief lecture, the workshop will include an interactive exercise that will have you loading, creating, analyzing and stylizing spatial data, while building your own map with ArcGIS Pro. This exercise will conclude with you exploring the various online data repositories that are available through ArcGIS Online. The following are some of the main tasks you can look forward to completing:
- Explore ArcGIS Pro’s user interface, including how to load and visualize data, and some common geoprocessing workflows
- Create new features and export them as shapefiles
- Combine data layers for analysis or display purposes
- Compose and export a map.
- Explore ArcGIS Pro's integration with data repositories through ArcGIS Online
