ArcGIS Pro quick course in this mini course we are going to see the basics of handling ArcGIS Pro we are going to see how to create a new project georeference an image create vector layers edit points lines polygons manage tables how to create and fill fields add layers to import gps points geoprocessing tools and geometry calculations such as area perimeter and length symbology of points lines and polygons add labels and finally the edition and printing of a map we go to ArcGIS Pro is the initial screen that shows us when we run ArcGIS Pro in the part left we have the previous or recent projects in the central part we have the new projects that we can select a global catalog map in a local in or start without any template in this case we are going to create a new map we click and it asks us for the name of the new project in this case my first map is the address where the whole city will be stored at this base and everything The files that we are going to create ok from the image that we have on the screen we are going to create our work for the entire project, that is, to digitize both roads, houses, rivers and other elements, imagine that we obtained this image from a drone or any other means we have a point 1 and 1.2 to know the coordinates of point 1 and point 2 it is necessary to move to the field to be located right in this position and with a gps take its coordinates and then record them and proceed with georeferencing and this is the next step we are going to to do in ArcGIS Pro it has a ribbon for example map here has different elements and in the add data button I am going to load the image I click image ok and load this layer it asks me to build pyramids I tell it if once it has me loaded the layer in this part we have a table of contents a panel of contents I right click on the image I am going to zoom to layer at the bottom we have a coordinate system in this In case we are going to leave it in meters now to georeferential the image we go in the ribbon in the image here we select the reference option the first thing we must do is select the reference system for which we are in Set SRS and we are going to go in Project cordinate system in UTM WGS 1984 southern hemisphere and selected for this case zone 17 south I can click it to add to favorites we give it ok now it is very simple I just have to enter the coordinates of point 1 and in point 2 I will do click on this section of widths I click on the point control and I am located right in the center of point 1 I click the mouse again and then I right click and here it asks me to enter the coordinates in both "X" and "Y" in this case for "X" it is 69 12 63 and for "Y" 95 32 70 and 75 I accept ok I lose the image no problem we right click a zoom yesterday I have the image back I already have in the coordinates in "X" 600 thousand and in " And " 9 million now for the next point I repeat the same process I click right in the center now a right click assuming that I have coordinates in active decimal degrees of ms and I enter the coordinates of point 2" X "69 20 75" Y "95 32 38 7 I give a right click to accept a zoom to layer again and my image is georeferenced now to save I have two options Save saves me in the original file or save as new saves me in a new file and the original file does not modify it in this case I am going to select 6 now if I can close the tape georeferencing close georeference here we can check in the basemap in the case that it has a background image as basemap can check the esri background image matches although it is more current but Now the next step is to create the shapefiles for which we go to analysis in the analysis ribbon and select tools here it shows the geo process panel we have the favorite tools and the toolb ox we go in data management tools we select feature class and we are going to select the tool create feature class in feature class name I am going to select the name of the new vector layers that I am going to do for example I am going to make a layer for the houses named it as buildings and geometry type selected the geometry in this case it would be points and in coordinate system the coordinate system I click on the coordinate system selector and in favorites I already have zone 17 sur I give it ok we give it run execute it has correctly created the buildings layer now we are going to make a layer for the road network for all roads then feature name class we are going to select a new name road network in geometry type we are going to select polyline the rest I leave it by default the same coordinate system zone 17 sur run for the river rivers I can simply place it now I want to make a polygon for this lagoon then I changed the name lagoon lagoons in geometry type already I must change to polygon polygon I keep the run coordinate system and you can see that I already have the layers from which I will create new elements once we have learned to create new vector files we will proceed to edit them it is extremely simple energies pro for For example, I am going to digitize all the houses, I click buildings, I place myself on the buildings layer and on the ribbon I go to edit, where it says features, I click create and it shows me the create features panel where it says buildings, I select buildings, click, click and I proceed to place the points for example on this house I click click click click click once I finish with the points I will give way to the road network I click on the road network and you can see that I have different options to draw I will select the first it would be freehand then I proceed I zoom I identify the roads and I'm going to click double click I have drawn a line of the road network now I continue with the next click click click double click to finish or you can also press the F2 key when you want to finish I click click pressed the F2 key and it ends and thus continued with all the ways click double click and I finish with this path I right click on Tulle yesterday if you deactivated the image you can see that I already have digitized all the ways and paths to clean selection I click on selection in clear clean selection now I will proceed to draw the river I locate the river layer I click the river I zoom with the mouse and I will click click click click double click and the digitization is finished right click to the image next to layer I already have the river layer click to clear selection now I am going to digital to the polygon layer I click on gaps click I zoom on the lagoon and I'm going to start drawing around the perimeter click click click click and double click to finish drawing the other lagoon click click click click click click click double click to finish right click zoom to layer in the clean image selection of the image was activated and practically I already have all the digitized elements now I click save to save the entire edition of today that if now we are going to manage tables that is to say in the path layer I have various elements then I want to say which is a good of the first order of the second order or which are roads the same in the layer of point I can tell you that point corresponds to the school, police, hospital, etc., the rest of the dwellings, so how do you categorize it? the attribute table if we start with the point layer I right click on buildings right click and click on the table tribute now I must create a new field that allows me to categorize the points for example here then I will add a new field in Field Add I click on Add and it tells me the name of the field of the new field in this case I am going to put type type in data type in the attack field this will be type text then I do c lic and selected type text in lenght in the field lenght the length in this case about 50 characters is fine and ready now I click save and we see that I already have the field type added now we click and close now I am going to assign names or categories arbitrarily, for example, I am going to say that point 3 corresponds to hospital, I find the type field and the value in the row and put hospital, now I tell you that point 12 corresponds to police, police, point 22, I'm going to tell you that it is a church now if I am located in the header type I double click and you can see an arrow that allows me to group ascending or descending mind then I select all the points that are without name with capital shift I select this to avoid writing one by one now I right click on type I get to click on calculated field in Calculate Field says the name of the table the type field and now the expression I am going to put type for text when I am going to place text I put between quotes In quotation marks, he placed houses, he clicked on Run and from a single one he has filled me with houses all the fields that did not have a name once finished I click on save when the edition and I can close the attribute table clean selection with clear now I repeat the same process for example for the road network again right click Open Attribute table, Add Field also type of text length 50 save changes now in road network we go with the select button here we can lean on the satellite image in image now for example this road with the select button the selection click according to the image tells me that this is a road maybe ballasted probably ballasted in everything placed ballasted in ballasted type here I can check that these are roads I make a selection box and you can see in the table of attributes are selected if I right click calculated fields between quotes I will place the name of roads roads run for example I know that in the urban area t All these would be streets the selection now that I have selected I put the street name or they can be paved run assigns me that name I look in the attribute table that there is no element without assigning its respective name for example 21 in this case I double I click and double-click it will show me the image active and I can see in this case it would be a path selected and I put path paths Run this last element I do not know what the image is active and apparently it is a bridge placed as bridge run and in name I already have a bridge type and so we can see that it assigns to all the elements their respective names now I open the river attribute table I right click river open attribute table and in this case I am interested in placing a name and also later knowing its length how many meters is long or kilometers site selection now I am going to create a new field and you can see that Field is not activated for me why this happens is because I did not save the previous changes then s I click on the edit ribbon in Save good to all the changes and now as I am in another layer it is already activated in Field Add I am going to add a new field called name type text and length equal to 50 enter for the new one field is going to be called length length in meters I want to know the entire length of the river now in data type it will no longer be the text but double type and we click on save if I go to the river table I already have a name and length in this case the name I can put malacatos river I save the changes save all the changes I say yes and I only have the lagoon and in the lagoon I want to calculate the area and the perimeter I right click on the lagoon layer table attribute I must add two fields add field would be area and a base in hectares double type I click for a new field would be perimeter in meters enter also double type enter we give it to save and close the fields the tables right click on the image Zoom to layer now I can deactivate it to the i magen because I no longer need it I already have all the elements digitized and in the attribute tables I have placed the necessary information it is also very common to add new layers in this case I have a contour layer , a digital elevation model and I want to add them to my current screen I go to the add button to tanks to add all kinds of elements to data and selected the curves layer 20 I added a layer of contour lines in this case every 20 meters I can add another layer for example of a digital elevation model that later we will see how to derive products from the same ok I will not deactivate because at this time I do not need it we will also see how we can import coordinates of points taken with gps in that excel file I have coordinates taken with a gps and I have xlsx format for ease I prefer to work with a simple file it would be a txt now to import it into the gis pro let's copy it to a txt file I select control c I open a notepad and I give it control v I delete the last line now I am going to save this file close save and I call it general points but in the button to data anyway to add to any layer if I see that the point file is not updated txt I do click on the refresh button I have the points file in txt format I click ok in the table of contents at the end I add it as a table I right click on the points point txt file and I click on display x and data there are different ways of show points taken with a gps but it is the simplest that they make me display XY data in input table the layer of txt points in X_Field selected the field corresponding to "X" and in Y_Field the field corresponding to "Y" in coordinate system you can select the coordinate system in this case as a favorite I have it at WGS 84 zone 17S we give it ok we click on run and you can see that I already imported the new points taken with gps in this case we can say that these points are tor control reservoirs or any other type at least now we move on to the next step which is geoprocessing and geometry calculation with this layer of points that we added lately we are going to see its area of influence to say at a radius of 50 meters for what which one we go to in analysis and where it says tools we display we are going to see a tool that says it will be click on base or we can also find it within the geo processing tour box in input feature in this case I will select the last layer that is XY points table to point of the gps points the units we are going to tell you that in meters and the distance can be 50 meters I want an area of influence of 50 meters of the gps points that I took I click on rand and it has generated an area influence or lower than 50 meters will calculate geometries now I was interested to know the length of the river open the attribute table of the river right click open river and length attributes can see it is empty do right click and we click on calculate geometry in Input Features the river layer the field and the property in this case length the unit of length can be meters feet yards kilometers in this case I leave the coordinate system zone 17 south ok you We click on run and it has a length of approximately 1,090 of a kilometer. Normally all the entities or vector layers already show us by default the length in meters and also the area in square meters. We close the river layer. Now we are going to calculate the area of the lagoons in hectares and the perimeter in less right click or tax penalty we repeat the same process right click on area calculation geometry property area unit in this case hectares coordinate system zone 17 south ok and click on Run and it calculates the hectares for me each of the polygons the large one of 0.23 hectares and the small one of 0.04 now I want to calculate the perimeter simply in the property I change to perimeter to the perimeter field here and here in the property change in this case it would be the perimeter length of the perimeter the unit in this case meters click, Run and we see that it calculates the perimeter of both lagoons I close the table and proceed with the next step that the Symbology for this I already have the layers digitized and also the attribute tables with their respective values or categories, so for example in points I am located in the points icon this corresponds to towers I click to modify symbol and it shows me a new panel with a gallery of different symbols in this case I am going to look for a tower if it is available select this radio symbol everyone can see that a tower places me now for buildings I do the same if I am located in buildings I select any symbol will change me to Everyone but remember that previously we modified the type or category within the table for which we are going to right click on the building layer es and we click on symbols in the symbology panel we are going to select and Unique values and in field we are going to select type and we are going to click this button where it says to evaluate and you can see that I have added all the categories of my layer buildings and you can see that it already shows me in categories if I want to remove the last one that says or the one from the bars of other values I right click and click on simón now if I am located in hospital I click on the hospital icon and look for an icon to hospital I cannot here type and write hospital we click for the hospital now I go with the curves layer 20 curves I click on the icon if I want to simply change the color I go to the properties properties and selected another color for example a gray at 70% accept here I have the contour lines every 20 meters now I go with the road network I repeat the same process right click Symbology in Single Symbol change to Unique Values in field change by type here I have street roads we can nte in this case the field or the stop is I right click rhythm here the same story in the street I look for a symbol in Gallery now for roads I also look for the most appropriate symbol and in this way making a symbol for each element or category now I continue with river it is simpler I simply look for a blue one an element of blue color Water (line) in properties I can change the width also in the color and we are going to apply for the Buffer we can also change the color for the lagoon look for a suitable color in the properties I can play with the colors do not forget to constantly save the project and if you do not settle for a color or symbol with this I can go playing now once finished with the selection of the symbols for each element we are going to add labels for example I want the name of the river to be shown, I am located in the layer where it says river, I click right click and selected Labels now to configure which field I want to show me. information I'm going in Feature Layer, in Labeling, and in Label class in field I selected in this case the name field will show me the malacatos river here I have some options to customize the text malacatos river for example I want it to show me the altitude of the curves level I right click on curves I am located on curves active in Label click the same as right click and activate here and selected the field in this case contours here the location I want to be between the lines I can also change a style by For example a halo increase the size of the text 9 and also play with the labels with colors sizes shapes fonts and in this way we are almost ready to go to print or print design of our map. I had previously made them load a layer that is Call dem which is a digital elevation model and with this we are going to do another 2 geoprocesses we want to bring in this case there are contour lines every 20 meters we want to bring every 5 only To improve the design or appearance of the map we are going to do the following we deactivate the DEM layer we go to the geoprocessing panel we return and we are going to look for two tools the first one is called hillshade in input the raster we select the dem and we give it run run I create a shadow map from the digital elevation model you can now see this shadow map in the table of contents I am going to put it on all the layers for this I simply place myself on the layer and dragged it covers all the layers now I am going to give transparency I placed it on the layer click on Raster layers in the ribbon on the wall I am going to place a transparency of 85% I leave you now another tool is one to create contour lines that would be with tones with all click on points raster the forceful theme every five meters with bull interval every five we clicked on range and it generates a contour curve every five meters and instead the symbology can be a gray at 20% and in size ta Once a 0.3 and we can hardly see the contour lines, it is simply so that they do not steal the screen if we want everything to be fine we can also add the surface of the lagoons right click on the lagoon Labels we go in Labeling the field area in hectares 0.24 and 0.04 if we click on expression we can tell it more hectares that show me the symbol of hectares I give a space if we are using the arcade language I click it + I open quotation marks of space hectares apply I close this panel and you can see that I already have the label for hectares Now that we are ready we can go to the print design before going to the print design it is necessary in the table of contents to leave exactly as I wish the legend to appear in this case you can see that buildings are all in lowercase if I double click on correct home buildings ok in type you can delete the text if I do not want it to be displayed now where it says points x 7 which are the gps points we are going to place them as towers control towers with order 5 corresponds to the contour lines every 5 meters named contour lines 5 m initial capital for lagoons that is, I must check the spelling and grammar in each of the layers because this will be how it goes To print another recommendation on all the layers first place the point layers then the lines and finally the polygon layers can see first polygons below then line layers and on all the point layers now the last step is the design of Printing we go to the menu in the ribbon bar we click on New Layout and select the paper size in this case I will select 4 horizontal and on this sheet is where we must add our map we go where it says Map Frame click selected map corresponds to the map assuming that I have several maps I must select the correct one I make a box and draw it at the bottom in this bar we have the scale 5.354 the ideal is to use multiple plos of 10 out of 100 then we are going to leave it at 5 thousand 15 thousand scales we adjust the size of the frame if we do not want the border in the map frame we right click properties in display in border symbol we tell it that none now that what should have a map a title then we go to symbol we are going to select any of these elements the one that you like the most title and I am going to place my first map in ArcGIS Pro another element to consider is a north arrow we go to insert north arrow selected the symbol that most I like to draw that box here I have the north arrow another element is a grid to indicate the coordinates I go with the Map Frame in Map Frame in Grid we have at the beginning geographic coordinates or in measured grid flat coordinates selected whichever one I like the most and we have the coordinates if you want to modify them I go in Options in components in this case the line without fabric I am not interested I can delete them I can add intersection points ones another element in the graphic scale we go to bars that I click I select the one I like the most in this case I am going to select a metric a simple drawing if I right click on properties I can set the units in this case I want in meters Label text I simply want it to show me the "m" of meters I can be the largest I have my graphic scale it will also be important to add the text scale for this we go in Dynamic text and select Scale we draw now to modify it I double click I write scale I can do more small the text in the ribbon in format I can change the design of the text now if you want to align these three elements the graphic scale that of the text and the north selected it click shift - shift I right click I go on the link and selected the input and I want to align them at the bottom and finally I am going to add the legend we go in the ribbon bar in insert I click on legend and draw the legend you can see all the elements of the legend in the case for example Hilshade I do not want it to be shown simply in the table of contents I go where the legend says I click on legend and deactivated the element that I do not want to show in this case assuming that I want to change color by For example, I don't like green for the area of influence if I change it automatically it will update both the legend and the map and in this way we have created our first map with ArcGIS Pro now if I want to print or share export we go In the ribbon in be if we click on print in the help we will send it to our printer or plotter to print our map or if we click on export in Layout we will export it either as pdf or image click on Layout, for example the Save as type you can select pdf or any of the available formats in this case I will leave it as png, the resolution can be set to 300 if I activate Clip to Graphic Extent, it simply exports the dimensions sions of the graph without considering the entire transparency sheet if you want to save transparency we click on export we save and open the image here we can see the result of all our work if you liked it, do not forget to give it a little hand up and share it on all social media thank you very much
