ArcGIS Pro Courses, COGO
COGO Editing in ArcGIS Pro
This course is intended for beginner students who want to learn how to use Coordinate Geometry (COGO) tools in ArcGIS Pro to create, edit, and check geometry using bearings, distances, and curves.
Students need to have their own computer hardware and access to ArcGIS Pro. An ArcGIS Pro Basic, Standard, or Advanced license is sufficient, as COGO tools are included at all license levels.
- Module 1: Introduction to COGO & Surveying Concepts
- Module 2: COGO Settings in ArcGIS Pro
- Module 3: Create and Edit Features with COGO
- Module 4: Working with the Traverse Tool
- Module 5: Validate and Adjust Geometry
- Module 6: Create legal descriptions based on GIS measurements
This introductory course provides participants with a practical foundation in Coordinate Geometry (COGO) and traverse workflows within ArcGIS Pro. Designed for users who are new to COGO tools, the course emphasizes step-by-step workflows for entering bearings, distances, and curves; constructing traverses; validating geometry; and more.
Students will begin by learning the purpose of COGO in ArcGIS Pro and how to configure the necessary settings before moving into feature creation and editing workflows. Hands-on exercises focus on using the Traverse tool, applying distance and direction-based edits, and ensuring accuracy through validation and adjustment methods. The course concludes with instruction on generating legal descriptions directly from GIS measurements, providing a complete workflow from setup to output.
By the end of the course, students will be able to confidently apply COGO methods in ArcGIS Pro to create, edit, check, and document geometry defined by bearings, distances, and curves.

This course made it less intimidating to switch from ArcMap to ArcGIS Pro. So glad I attended.

I really enjoyed the Python/ArcGIS course. For me the right balance between detail and overview. Good work!

Class was well organized, well paced and I learned a lot.

Definitely got me "over the hump" of being able to grasp Python.

These courses are great. I am so pressed for time this is the only way I can acquire extra skills these days. Thank you Eric for all your hard work!

I have attended a number of instructor-led training courses offered by ESRI, which are great in their own right, but the Mastering the ArcGIS Server JavaScript API course gets much more in-depth than they often do. I really liked the recommended reading, they helped expand the terms being covered in lecture to concrete examples that could be related back to my work more directly instead of just having the lecture and exercises alone. I learned a lot andwill recommend this and other GeoSpatial Training courses to the GIS'ers I know. Thanks for putting this course together and offering it.

Really good course material. Very relevant subject matter.
Michael Philp, City of Springville, UT
Very informative and knowledgeable course. It help determine which direction I should take my further GIS and web programming skills.
