ArcGIS Pro: Mapping and Visualization

ArcGIS Pro: Mapping and Visualization Craig Williams, Edie Punt, & David Watkins @williamscraigm, @epunt, & @daviddwatkins

Mapping an Visualization Vision In ArcGIS Pro • Improve drawing performance and quality • Provide an intuitive and efficient map authoring experience in 2D and 3D • Creating 2D maps, 3D maps, and layouts • Layer symbology including symbol selection and editing • Layer properties • Labeling • Support existing maps you have today and extend them with new capabilities • e.g. procedural modeling ArcGIS Pro: Mapping and Visualization

Mapping Overview What we built • Unified 2D / 3D mapping experience • One symbol model integrating 2D, 3D, and representation symbols • Decoupling maps and layouts • Modern graphics support • Anti-aliasing • True transparency support • Improved drawing performance and application responsiveness • Multi-threaded drawing ArcGIS Pro: Mapping and Visualization

High Level Mapping UX Design Goals • Emphasize your work, not the UI: • Layer symbology and labeling • Provide better support for iterative workflows (e.g. map design) • Layer properties • Provide ability to make changes across many layers • Provide quick access to commonly changed items but allow deeper changes • Erase differences between 2D and 3D where appropriate ArcGIS Pro: Mapping and Visualization

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… ArcGIS Pro: What's New in Mapping and Visualization

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 ArcGIS Pro: What's New in Mapping and Visualization

Types of 3D Worlds ArcGlobe ArcScene ‘Global’ context Global Coordinate System (WGS84) Curvature of the earth Large Data & Services Multiple surfaces acting as one ‘Local’ context Projected Coordinate Systems Area-of-interest Local data only One surface per layer ArcGIS Pro: What's New in Mapping and Visualization

Terminology changes • example: Polygon symbol made up of: • Black stroke symbol layer (outline) • Green fill symbol layer (interior) ArcGIS Pro: What's New in Mapping and Visualization

Layout Enhancements • Multiple layouts • Scenes (3D maps) in layout • Layout contents • Map decoupled from the layout • Removed printer dependencies ArcGIS Pro: What's New in Mapping and Visualization

Layout Enhancements (New in 1.1) • Rulers and Guides • Layout snapping • Extent Indicators ArcGIS Pro: Mapping and Visualization

Export Improvements • Support for transparency in PDF • Anti-aliasing and improved graphics • Faster • Smaller file sizes ArcMap ArcGIS Pro ArcGIS Pro: What's New in Mapping and Visualization

Map Automation Provided by arcpy.mp module • Script redundant mapping workflows • Create map books • Update projects, maps and layers (i.e. data sources, symbology) • Automate the sharing of maps via export or publishing • Migrate arcpy.mapping scripts to arcpy.mp - what changes? • Python 3.4 • Projects (.aprx) • Layer file changes • Multiple layouts ArcGIS Pro: What's New in Mapping and Visualization

Demos

ArcGIS Pro releases • 1.0 – released in January • 1.1 – released last week (July 16th) • .NET SDK • Layout improvements • Range slider • User experience improvements throughout mapping • See “Road Ahead” sessions for more information on 1.1 and upcoming releases ArcGIS Pro: Mapping and Visualization
