Introduction to ArcGIS Online

This practical, one-day hands-on course provides a guided introduction to the workflow in ArcGIS Online (AGOL) for uploading and sharing your spatial data. You will learn how to publish existing vector data to AGOL, create views, set sharing and group privileges, create a web map that drives data collection and forms the foundation to an Experience Builder web application. The course comprises hands-on exercises each introduced with a short presentation and a live demonstration.

The course covers: 

• An introduction to ArcGIS Online (AGOL).

• Sharing your vector data from ArcGIS Pro to AGOL.

• Controlling access (settings, groups and views).

• Create a web map from your shared data.

• Build a web map application in Experience Builder.

• Configure layers for data capture.

• Accessing data in AGOL directly within ArcGIS Pro.

By the end of the course participants will be able to:

• Prepare and upload vector data from desktop ArcGIS Pro to ArcGIS Online.
• Create views, groups and set access privileges for hosted feature layers.
• Create a web map, set layer symbology and configure pop-ups.
• Edit a layer and conduct data capture.
• Create an Experience Builder application from the web map.
• Access layers in AGOL directly within ArcGIS Pro for data analysis.

This course is intended for users of ESRI’s ArcGIS Pro software who wish to improve their technical knowledge and understanding in ArcGIS Online (AGOL), the cloud-based counterpart, to traditional desktop GIS.
