A powerful set of geospatial software capabilities, ArcGIS Pro allows its users to visualize, analyze, and share projects with teams or anyone around the world.
By combining multiple sources to make maps using scientific analysis of 2D, 3D, and 4D data to identify patterns and make predictions, this tool was instrumental in helping experts successfully respond during the 2018 Thailand cave rescue.
With the retirement of ArcMap currently planned for early 2026, many users still using this predecessor to ArcGIS Pro are contemplating or starting the transition.
With that shift, though, comes a new repertoire of extensions and apps, making learning ArcGIS Pro both exciting and possibly intimidating. To help these users, Esri, the global leader in location intelligence, has released Switching to ArcGIS Pro from ArcMap, second edition.
Unlike other books written for ArcGIS Pro, this book is designed to get experienced users of ArcMap up and running. Chapter by chapter walks readers through the differences in the user interface (UI) and workflows between the two as well as the project-based structure of ArcGIS Pro.
Professionals can use what they already know about ArcGIS software to help them adjust and quickly become familiar, productive, and confident with ArcGIS Pro.
Written by Maribeth Price, a veteran Esri software user and the author of other books using Esri products, Switching to ArcGIS Pro from ArcMap, the second edition, comes from the perspective of someone who has used both of the title products. At under 200 pages, the book is intended to be a go-to desk reference for getting started with ArcGIS Pro.
Switching to ArcGIS Pro from ArcMap, second edition, is available in print (ISBN: 9781589487314, 168 pages, US$54.99) and as an ebook (ISBN: 9781589487321, US$54.99). Both editions can be obtained from most online retailers worldwide.
The print edition is also available for purchase at esri.com/esripress or by calling 1-800-447-9778.
