Class is in session! In this video, I will show you how you can use the integrated development environment (IDE) called Visual Studio for writing Python computer code. I will then show you how you can take code that you write in Visual Studio and run it inside of the ArcGIS Pro GIS software environment. I use a coding exercise of reading in a comma separated values (CSV) file using Python and then turning content from the CSV into a shape file using ArcPy. I'll walk you through all the steps in the process and explain all of the code in detail. This video will be particularly useful for people that want to start doing more advanced Python coding using ArcPy with an industry-standard coding environment like Visual Studio. This tutorial was recorded during one of my lectures at the Rochester Institute of Technology.

I just started as a GIS technician doing utilities mapping, but i'm hoping to work my way up towards a more analytical role in the future. Your channel has been so helpful for learning the more technical skills I need to move forward. Thank you so much for making this publicly available, you're amazing for that!!

This is so helpful. I started learning with Python but really have come to like VS Code a lot more.

@GIScienceRIT 2 года назад

Fantastic I'm glad you found the video useful and yes definitely look more into VS code

Hello Brian, Thank you so much i followed your tutorial and it made so much sense after i tried doing a lab myself with Canadian earthquake data. i did lot of troubleshooting but you made python fun for me.

Thank you I'm glad that you found value in the tutorial appreciate you taking the time to write a comment. Happy learning and stay tuned for more videos!

This is awesome! Thanks. I am going to try to automate some of the mapping queries I need to do at work. It's a repetitive work which requires looking at radius of review around an object (oil well) to gather data.

@shishirlamsal1944 2 года назад

hello there!! should i have prior knowledge of python to follow your GIS and Python series ?

@GIScienceRIT 2 года назад

It might help to have some background knowledge but if you don't have any you should be able to follow the lawn well thanks for the interest

10:00, explains x,y coordinates.

hi Brian , I have tried to execute the classDeature parameter: from arcpy but it give me this error : File "", line 22, in File "c:\program files (x86)\arcgis\desktop10.8\arcpy\arcpy\management.py", line 2025, in CreateFeatureclass raise e ExecuteError: ERROR 000622: Failed to execute (Create Feature Class). Parameters are not valid. ERROR 000628: Cannot set input into parameter spatial_reference. I am using the ArcGIS 10.8 not the pro does it matter ? , Thanks for help@Brain

Perhaps double check how you're setting up the projection file? If it can't find it using the external path to the prj file it might not work feel free to contact me directly the troubleshoot more
