ArcGIS dashboards provide real-time data visualization and analysis by combining maps, graphs, charts, and indicators to monitor live data streams and support informed decisions.
Add farmland tree survey data from Survey123 to an interactive ArcGIS Online web map, visualize 35 tree points, and symbolize them with a tree icon for clear farmland mapping.
Add indicators to ArcGIS Online AGOL dashboards to show total tree count and dead tree count from farmland tree survey data, using gauge options to monitor health at a glance.
Unlock the power of WebGIS with ArcGIS Online (AGOL) in this hands-on, practical course crafted for both beginners and experienced GIS professionals. Whether you’re looking to enhance your GIS skill set, digitize your field surveys, or build powerful web-based GIS applications, this course will guide you step by step through the core features of ArcGIS Online.
We begin by covering the fundamentals of AGOL—learning how to navigate the interface, add and visualize spatial data, apply smart symbology, and explore authoritative datasets using the Living Atlas of the World. You’ll gain confidence in creating and customizing WebMaps, integrating multiple data layers, setting pop-ups, filters, bookmarks, and publishing your maps for interactive use.
Next, we move on to Web Apps—where you’ll learn to build fully functional GIS applications using Web AppBuilder. You’ll customize your app with themes, layouts, and interactive widgets, all without writing a single line of code.
In the following module, you’ll get hands-on with ArcGIS Survey123, designing a mobile-friendly data collection form. You’ll learn how to deploy it, collect field data, and integrate it into your GIS projects.
Finally, we’ll build a powerful ArcGIS Dashboard, turning your raw data into meaningful visualizations using maps, charts, indicators, and live updates.
By the end of this course, you'll be able to design and share professional GIS products tailored for urban planning, environmental monitoring, disaster management, education, and many other real-world applications. Join us and take your GIS skills to the next level with ArcGIS Online!
