ArcGIS Pro is Esri's next generation desktop GIS. It features innovations not available in any other desktop GIS, helping you to complete projects and share results more easily than ever before. With its modern interface and integrated 2D and 3D capabilities, ArcGIS Pro will streamline the way you do your GIS work.
By now, most of you may have seen ArcGIS Pro in a demo even if you haven't started using it. Also, it's no secret now that while ArcMap will continue to be supported for some time, ArcGIS Pro is the future of Esri's desktop GIS. Eventually, we will all be using ArcGIS Pro as our day-to-day desktop GIS.
As we all make that transition, there are several interesting new capabilities in ArcGIS Pro that are worth exploring. Below are 10 things that I really like about ArcGIS Pro. I'll do this in the classic top 10 list—Letterman style!
10. Awesome Maps Made Easy
ArcGIS Pro has fully integrated two great technologies, smart mapping and ArcGIS Arcade, both of which make it easy to produce great maps.
Beyond smart mapping, the way you can interact with and tweak your symbology in ArcGIS Pro is incredible. One thing really jumps out—scale dependency can be set not only for the entire layer but also class by class within a layer. Also, some capabilities that used to be limited to cartographic representations in ArcGIS Pro are now properties you can set for symbology on a layer.
