Overview of this book

ArcGIS is Esri's catalog of GIS applications with powerful tools for visualizing, maintaining, and analyzing data. ArcGIS makes use of the modern ribbon interface and 64-bit processing to increase the speed and efficiency of using GIS. It allows users to create amazing maps in both 2D and 3D quickly and easily. If you want to gain a thorough understanding of the various data formats that can be used in ArcGIS Pro and shared via ArcGIS Online, then this book is for you. Beginning with a refresher on ArcGIS Pro and how to work with projects, this book will quickly take you through recipes about using various data formats supported by the tool. You will learn the limits of each format, such as Shapefiles, Geodatabase, and CAD files, and learn how to link tables from outside sources to existing GIS data to expand the amount of data that can be used in ArcGIS. You'll learn methods for editing 2D and 3D data using ArcGIS Pro and how topology can be used to ensure data integrity. Lastly the book will show you how data and maps can be shared via ArcGIS Online and used with web and mobile applications.

Correcting spatial features with topology tools


Now that you know where the errors are in your data, you need to fix them. ArcGIS Pro includes specific tools for fixing topology errors. These are generally quick and easy to use for most situations. You may also use standard editing tools to correct errors as well. In either case, you should always validate your data after completing edits to ensure you have not introduced any new errors into your data.

In this recipe, you will fix several errors you uncovered when validating the topology. You will use the Error Inspector tool in ArcGIS Pro to correct the errors.
