Mapping & Analysis with the ArcGIS API for Python
12 GISP Credit Hours
This course is intended for students looking to learn fundamental mapping and spatial analysis tasks with the ArcGIS API for Python for use with ArcGIS Online or Portal.
This course uses ArcGIS Pro 3.x and the integrated Notebook environment for Python. Students will need to provide an ArcGIS Pro 3.x Basic or higher license. This should be verified prior to the start of class.
- Module 1: Introduction to Jupyter Notebooks
- Module 2: Introduction to the ArcGIS API for Python
- Module 3: Creating a Map Widget and Adding Layers
- Module 4: Symbolizing Layers
- Module 5: Using Pandas for Data Analysis
- Module 6: Working with Geometries
- Module 7: Spatial Analysis and Operations
The ArcGIS API for Python, specifically tailored for ArcGIS Online, is a powerful and versatile tool designed to leverage the capabilities of ArcGIS Online, Esri’s cloud-based GIS platform. This Python library facilitates the integration, automation, and execution of various GIS tasks, making it highly valuable for GIS professionals, analysts, and data scientists who work with spatial data in cloud environments. In this 1.5 day class students will learn the fundamentals of the API for creating maps, adding layers to maps, symbolizing layers, working with feature geometry and attributes, integration with Pandas, and spatial analysis operations.

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

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.
