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.

Sharing your applications


You have created two very powerful GIS web applications. However, right now only you can access them. Just as you have to share web maps, feature services, and data files if you want others to be able to access them, you must do the same thing with your applications.

The process to share your applications is very similar to how you shared your other content. You have the same options in terms of who you can share them with: your organization, a group or groups, and everyone.  

In this recipe, you will share the Corbin Concrete Sales Team app you just created so the employees of Corbin Concrete can access the application. They currently do not have an ArcGIS Online account or user logins, so you will share it with everyone. This will allow them to access the app without requiring a login.  

Getting ready

You must have completed all previous recipes in this chapter as well as those in Chapters 12, Introducing ArcGIS Online, and Chapter 13, Publishing Your Own Content...
