What you'll learn

  • Use ArcPy classes and functions from the Python window of ArcGIS Pro
  • Use a Python IDE to build a PDF maps on demand application
  • Configure a Python script tool that provides a pick list to choose a feature to create a PDF map from

Requirements

  • You should have ArcGIS Pro 2.0 installed - only a Basic level license is needed - 1.2, 1.3 and 1.4 will enable you to do most of the course
  • You should have started to use ArcGIS Pro
  • You should be comfortable with using your choice of Python IDE - IDLE is used for demonstration

Description

To perform map automation, ArcGIS Pro uses its mp sub-module that has evolved from ArcMap's arcpy.mapping.

In this course, which is suitable for English-speaking students from anywhere in the world, you will:

  • Use seven key classes of the mp sub-module to perform map automation:
    • ArcGISProject
    • Map
    • Layer
    • Layout
    • MapFrame
    • Camera
    • Extent
  • Use a Python IDE (IDLE demonstrated) to make and export maps to PDF
  • Create a Python script tool that uses tool validation to provide a pick list of field values
  • Use dynamic map elements like an extent indicator on an overview map, legend that only shows features within the current extent, and a graticule
  • Use pseudo-dynamic text for title updating
  • Use ArcGIS Pro to improve output of Python script tool to meet one-off requirements Plus much more.

All necessary data is downloaded from Natural Earth, and most code is available as attachments to download, so that you can choose whether to type every character or copy/paste each line. 

Who this course is for:

  • Anyone wanting to use ArcPy for map automation with ArcGIS Pro
