ArcGIS Pro Model Builder – Online

1-day ArcGIS Pro ModelBuilder course 

This course is held online over Zoom.

A licence to use the software (ArcGIS Pro) will be provided for the duration of the course.

Delegates will need to provide their own machine with ArcGIS Pro and Zoom installed for the course. Instructions on how to do this will be provided.

Course Description

This practical, one-day hands-on course provides an introduction to the ArcGIS model builder and how you can use it to streamline data processing tasks. You will be introduced to ArcToolbox and gain a deeper understanding of ArcGIS Pro geoprocessing tools. You will learn how to construct a model, make it loop, expose parameters to turn it into a Model tool for embedding and integrating Python scripts into the model builder environment.

The course comprises hands-on exercises each introduced with a short presentation.

This course is intended for regular users of ESRI's ArcGIS Pro software who wish to improve their technical knowledge to automate data processing.
