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.

Creating a new polygon feature using autocomplete

You now know how to create new polygon features that are not connected or adjacent to other polygons. How do you create new polygon features that are adjacent to other existing polygon features? You would want to construct these in a way that would not create gaps or overlaps between the new polygon and existing ones. Using the Autocomplete tool is one way to successfully do this.

In this recipe, you will create a new parcel polygon located just outside the City Limits of Trippville. The City Council is considering annexing this parcel and wants to see how it relates to the existing city limits. You will create the new parcel using the Autocomplete tool.

Getting ready

Before starting this recipe, you will need to have completed the Configuring editing options recipe. It is recommended that you complete the Creating new line features and Creating new Polygon Features recipes as well, though it is not required. Completing those recipes will...
