GISP Tripp Corbin, : Tripp Corbin GISP has over 25 years of experience in the geospatial industry and is recognized as an industry expert in a variety of geospatial software platforms, including Esri, Autodesk, and Trimble products. He has assisted numerous organizations in implementing GIS to help solve problems and improve operations. He holds multiple certifications, including as a certified GIS professional, Esri-certified enterprise system design associate, and Esri-certified desktop professional. He is also the former president of URISA and the local Georgia Chapter. In recognition of his contributions to the GIS community, he has received several awards, including the URISA Exemplary Leadership award and the Barbara Hirsch Special Service award.

Summary:

ArcGIS Pro is Esri’s newest desktop Geographic Information System (GIS) application with powerful tools for visualizing, maintaining, and analyzing data. As it replaces older platforms like ArcMap and ArcCatalog applications, users are quickly migrating to ArcGIS Pro, which features a modern ribbon interface and 64-bit processing to increase the speed and efficiency of using GIS. Written by a geospatial industry leader with 28+ years of experience, this cookbook will help existing ArcMap users transition to ArcGIS Pro and teach new users how to make the most of the powerful GIS tools it contains. After a brief refresher on ArcGIS Pro and working with projects, you’ll be quickly taken through recipes for creating geodatabases and using various data formats supported by the application. You’ll learn how to link external tables to enrich existing GIS datasets in ArcGIS before exploring methods for editing 2D and 3D data, and gain an understanding of how topology ensures data integrity. The last set of chapters will teach you how to enable advanced behavior in a geodatabase. After working through the recipes in this book, you’ll be ready to use ArcGIS Pro as your primary desktop GIS application for maintaining, analyzing, and displaying data using its diverse toolkit.
