Workshop 1 – ArcGIS Pro Migration

Workshop Cost: $50 (Early Bird) / $60 (after August 7th)

Date and Time: Monday, September 25, 1-5pm

Room: Fort Orange 9

Featured speaker: Mark Scott, Solutions Engineer, Esri-Boston Regional Office, Local Government Team

With the soon-to-be-deprecated status of ArcMap looming, users are making the switch to ArcGIS Pro. ArcGIS Pro provides workflows that are more tightly connected to the entire ArcGIS Platform. Content can be created, shared, and consumed more efficiently, combines 2D and 3D into a single application, and the project-oriented structure provides workflows involving multiple maps and multiple layouts in the same project. We will start with an overview demonstration of what’s new in ArcGIS Pro 3.1. Next, using an online tutorial, the group will follow along with the presenter to migrate an ArcMap map document into an ArcGIS Pro project. Along the way, you’ll learn how to interact with the interface, features, and tasks in the ribbon-based environment. Next, we will discuss data migration tools and workflows to get data out of older unsupported formats. Finally, we will outline the sharing workflow that binds ArcGIS Pro and ArcGIS Online together much better than ArcMap ever did.

Prerequisites: This is a Bring Your Own Device workshop. You will need to download and install ArcGIS Pro 3.1 on your laptop prior to the workshop.
