Foreword

More than 20 years ago, I was involved with a book project here at Esri. We produced and published a software workbook called Understanding GIS: The ARC/INFO Method. We were just a group of people at this little GIS software company in Redlands, California, who saw that the users of our ARC/INFO software needed better guidance on how to use these tools for real analysis projects. Our original goal had been to write a book called Getting Started with ARC/INFO. More than 500 pages later, we realized that we had described a methodology for doing GIS projects in their entirety and needed to change the title.

The key idea was to set up a problem in the book, provide the data, and then let the students work through the whole process. Little did we know that our book would become a worldwide best seller and inspire a generation of technically savvy geographers.

Fast-forward to 2017. GIS has evolved to keep pace with a changing technology landscape. There have been huge innovations in geospatial data models and user interfaces; GIS now lives and breathes on the web. Much has changed. Yet the need for our users to understand how to organize and think about a GIS project persists. This book, Understanding GIS: An ArcGISPro Project Workbook, now in its third edition since 2011, carries on the spirit and method of the original that inspired it. Im especially happy that this new editionfeaturing the latest version of our next-generation ArcGIS Pro softwarewas voluntarily undertaken (and executed with precision) by our friends at the University of Redlands, the college geographically closest to Esri headquarters. Im pleased to say that the new edition carries the torch while also integrating the new paradigm. It is my hope that it will inspire yet another generation of GIS professionals and practitioners.

Preface
Whats new in the third edition?

This third edition of Understanding GIS: An ArcGISPro Project Workbook has been completely revised and tested to be compatible with ArcGIS Pro 1.4. New graphics have been created using the Windows 10 operating system. Some steps have changed to reflect changes in how the software works. (available online, as was the case in the first and second editions) has been completely rewritten to reflect the latest advances in the rapidly evolving ArcGISSM Online environment. The demographic data has been updated with 2015 census data. Parcel data has been updated to 2016. The final results of the analysis are updated to an entirely new set of park sites. Numerous small mistakes that came to our attention have been corrected.
