ArcMap vs ArcGIS Pro - Transition More Easily 

Thanks for commenting! I’m glad you are finding my tutorials helpful.

Thanks for such a great comment. And thanks for plugging me on the Reddit too! I’m looking forward to our interview.

Glad they are helpful. What is your thesis on?

@@GISChops Mercury mines in California! ⛏️

You’re very welcome! Thanks for watching and commenting. Are you interested in doing an interview with me?

I just need to right click everything and try every option ha ha. Embarrassed that I spotted it after I was done shooting. Not embarrassed enough to reshoot it though. 🤣 I hope to surprise with with more nuggets of helpfulness in the future. Thanks for commenting.

Thank you very much for such a kind comment!

I watch my own videos sometimes to get reminders. I had to watch the mouse one to remember how to program a button. 🤣😂

Thanks for watching! And thanks for the comment.

I just found out I could make a folder with all of my layer files as favorites too!! That collection contains most of the layers I use everyday and they connect to web service, local data and from internal network. Spend 5 min every few days to watch your video really inspiring me!!

Thanks!

Thanks for watching AND commenting Felipe! Would you be able to do an interview?

Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching, commenting and subscribing!

Thanks for watching, and commenting!

I use Camtasia. It’s primarily for screen recording with editing as secondary. By with my souped up PC it does pretty well. .

Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment!

You are very welcome!

@@GISChops is there any way you can go over a time distance analysis product in pro? I would greatly benefit from that: army things...

I don’t have access to the network analyst extension. Esri has a bunch of helpful tutorials for that type of analysis.

@GIS Chops I figured it out if anyone is curious... it's a long process, so bear with me. Time is the cost of distance. To get an analysis of 1 hour of travel, x will be the speed and distance measured in km. The first step is to get all the data you'll be using: in my case, the data I cross referenced was elevation data, land cover data, and vector road data. The big thing to note is that the lowest resolution raster used must be the cell size of all raster data by the end. I would also recommend creating an ao to clip it to. Vectors first, add 2 float fields to the attribute table; one will be the speed_cost, and the other will be the speed cost per meter (name at your discretion). In the speed_cost attribute, select the attributes by type and classify major roads with a cost of 1. Everything else that may be more difficult might need to be a lower value (or higher on major freeways depending on your base speed in which your analysis is conducted). The next field, field calculator the equation: x*speed_cost (only after all values have been assessed for the cost). Then you must use feature to raster, ensuring it is the same cell size as your lowest resolution raster data. Call it whatever you'd like but this is the road kph. Create a mask for it by classifying it with equal intervals and only one class, change no data to 1 and 1 to no data. That's the road mask. Ensure it is in the same protection as all the raster data you'll use. If your cell size is to big, you'll not see the roads cut out of the mask and you'll need to do it again. I'll go over the rest later. It is a long process. I want to thank you for your videos, GIS Chops. They sent me out here with a broken instance of arcmap and a working copy of pro. With your help, I transitioned from arc map to pro in just 3 days and made my first time distance analysis product for use in an exercise.

Glad you were able to get what you needed. Thanks for such a detailed walkthrough of your process.

All the good content creators do it. 🤣😂

Thanks! I’ll have to go log in and get you the link to my schedule.

Thanks for commenting Mike! I actually need to figure out a process for bringing subdivisions into Pro from a dwg. I just spent a lot of time entering a 124 lot sub in the parcel fabric so I need a quicker solution.

@@GISChops Did you figure this out yet. I work for a CIty and do everything from dwg to ESRI.

I haven’t had a chance to get a process figured out. I’m about to get rid of one of my responsibilities, so maybe I’ll have more time. 😂🤣

You would need to open the Create Features pane from the edit tab. That will let you create features in any editable layers in your map.

Funny you should ask, I’m working on one right now. Make sure you’re subscribed with notifications so you know when it drops.

That’s great to hear you are working on that. You are the best!

Thank you! Interested in being interviewed?

Thanks Alex! Did you get my email with the link?

@@GISChops You’re welcome, I did.
