The arrival of ArcGIS Pro has brought a challenge to ArcMap users. The new software is sufficiently different in architecture and layout that switching from the old to the new is not a simple process. In some ways, Pro is harder to learn for ArcMap users than for new GIS users, because some workflows have to be unlearned, or at least heavily modified. Current ArcMap users are pressed for time, trying to learn the new software while still completing their daily tasks, so a book that teaches Pro from the start is not an efficient method.Switching to ArcGIS Pro from ArcMap aims to quickly transition ArcMap users to ArcGIS Pro. Rather than teaching Pro from the start, as for a novice user, this book focuses on how Pro is different from ArcMap. Covering the most common and important workflows required for most GIS work, it leverages the user’s prior experience to enable a more rapid adjustment to Pro.AUDIENCEProfessional and scholarly; College/higher education; General/trade.AUTHOR BIOMaribeth H.

This layer was created as part of Esri’s Green Infrastructure Initiative and is one of five newly generated companion datasets that can be used for Green Infrastructure (GI) planning at national, regional, and more local scales. If used together, these layers should have corresponding date-based suffixes (YYYYMMDD). The corresponding layer names are: Intact Habitat Cores, Habitat Connectors, Habitat Fragments, Habitat Cost Surface, and Intact Habitat Cores by Betweeness. These Esri derived data, and additional data central to GI planning from other authoritative sources, are also available as Map Packages for each U.S. State and can be downloaded from the Green Infrastructure Data Gallery.This layer represents a cost surface for use in landscape connectivity modeling. It reflects the relative ease of movement for terrestrial species taking into account several factors including: NLCD landcover classes, slope, proximity to water, and habitat core score. Generally speaking, natural land cover classes and areas proximal to water are parametrized to exhibit lower costs to species movement while developed areas and areas proximal to built infrastructure are parameterized to exhibit higher costs to species movement. Esri created this layer by following a methodology outlined by the Green Infrastructure Center, Inc. The cost surface was generated using a raster overlay process to create a composite comprised of several landscape variables. Characteristics within each variable were scored based on their perceived impact on species movement whereas reduced movement is reflected as high cost. Landscape variables were categorized into three themed classes based on their expected influence on the cost surface. The first class, impedance, represents the expected cost of species movement as it relates to land cover. The second class, bonuses, represents reductions in cost resulting from being within an existing core, fragment, or proximal to surface water; these conditions are assumed to enhance movement. The third class, penalties, represents increases in cost resulting from steeply sloping terrain and road infrastructure; these conditions are assumed to discourage movement.

This cost surface was used to generate a comprehensive network of Least Cost Paths (LCPs) using the Cost Connectivity tool which was introduced in ArcGIS 10.4 and ArcGISPro in 1.3. The resulting network was also utilized to compute Betweenness Centrality attribution for the Intact Habitat Cores by Betweenness layer, denoting a measure of the Core’s connectivity importance compared to all others in the network. This cost surface may be applicable for use in additional structurally focused landscape connectivity assessments and the generation of landscape corridors.Data Coordinate System: NAD_1983_Albers

When rain falls over land, a portion of it runs off into stream channels and storm water systems while the remainder infiltrates into the soil or returns to the atmosphere directly through evaporation.Physical properties of soil affect the rate that water is absorbed and the amount of runoff produced by a storm. Hydrologic soil group provides an index of the rate that water infiltrates a soil and is an input to rainfall-runoff models that are used to predict potential stream flow.For more information on using hydrologic soil group in hydrologic modeling see the publication Urban Hydrology for Small Watersheds (Natural Resources Conservation Service, United States Department of Agriculture, Technical Release–55).Dataset SummaryPhenomenon Mapped: Soil hydrologic groupUnits: ClassesCell Size: 30 metersSource Type: DiscretePixel Type: Unsigned integerData Coordinate System: USA Contiguous Albers Equal Area Conic USGS version (contiguous US, Puerto Rico, US Virgin Islands), WGS 1984 Albers (Alaska), Hawaii Albers Equal Area Conic (Hawaii), Western Pacific Albers Equal Area Conic (Guam, Marshall Islands, Northern Marianas Islands, Palau, Federated States of Micronesia, and American Samoa)Mosaic Projection: Web Mercator Auxiliary SphereExtent: Contiguous United States, Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, Guam, US Virgin Islands, Marshall Islands, Northern Marianas Islands, Palau, Federated States of Micronesia, and American SamoaSource: Natural Resources Conservation ServicePublication Date: December 2021ArcGIS Server URL: https://landscape11.arcgis.com/arcgis/Data from the gNATSGO database was used to create the layer for the contiguous United States, Alaska, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. The remaining areas were created with the gSSURGO database (Hawaii, Guam, Marshall Islands, Northern Marianas Islands, Palau, Federated States of Micronesia, and American Samoa).This layer is derived from the 30m (contiguous U.S.) and 10m rasters (all other regions) produced by the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS). The value for hydrologic group is derived from the gSSURGO map unit aggregated attribute table field Hydrologic Group - Dominant Conditions (hydgrpdcd).The seven classes of hydrologic soil group followed by definitions:Group A - Group A soils consist of deep, well drained sands or gravelly sands with high infiltration and low runoff rates.Group B - Group B soils consist of deep well drained soils with a moderately fine to moderately coarse texture and a moderate rate of infiltration and runoff.Group C - Group C consists of soils with a layer that impedes the downward movement of water or fine textured soils and a slow rate of infiltration.Group D - Group D consists of soils with a very slow infiltration rate and high runoff potential. This group is composed of clays that have a high shrink-swell potential, soils with a high water table, soils that have a clay pan or clay layer at or near the surface, and soils that are shallow over nearly impervious material.Group A/D - Group A/D soils naturally have a very slow infiltration rate due to a high water table but will have high infiltration and low runoff rates if drained.Group B/D - Group B/D soils naturally have a very slow infiltration rate due to a high water table but will have a moderate rate of infiltration and runoff if drained.Group C/D - Group C/D soils naturally have a very slow infiltration rate due to a high water table but will have a slow rate of infiltration if drained.What can you do with this Layer?

Data can also be exported for offline workflows. Please cite the Census and ACS when using this data.Data Note from the Census:Data are based on a sample and are subject to sampling variability. The degree of uncertainty for an estimate arising from sampling variability is represented through the use of a margin of error. The value shown here is the 90 percent margin of error. The margin of error can be interpreted as providing a 90 percent probability that the interval defined by the estimate minus the margin of error and the estimate plus the margin of error (the lower and upper confidence bounds) contains the true value. In addition to sampling variability, the ACS estimates are subject to nonsampling error (for a discussion of nonsampling variability, see Accuracy of the Data). The effect of nonsampling error is not represented in these tables.Data Processing Notes:Boundaries come from the US Census TIGER geodatabases, specifically, the National Sub-State Geography Database (named tlgdb_(year)_a_us_substategeo.gdb). Boundaries are updated at the same time as the data updates (annually), and the boundary vintage appropriately matches the data vintage as specified by the Census. These are Census boundaries with water and/or coastlines erased for cartographic and mapping purposes. For census tracts, the water cutouts are derived from a subset of the 2020 Areal Hydrography boundaries offered by TIGER. Water bodies and rivers which are 50 million square meters or larger (mid to large sized water bodies) are erased from the tract level boundaries, as well as additional important features. For state and county boundaries, the water and coastlines are derived from the coastlines of the 2020 500k TIGER Cartographic Boundary Shapefiles. These are erased to more accurately portray the coastlines and Great Lakes. The original AWATER and ALAND fields are still available as attributes within the data table (units are square meters). The States layer contains 52 records - all US states, Washington D.C., and Puerto RicoCensus tracts with no population that occur in areas of water, such as oceans, are removed from this data service (Census Tracts beginning with 99).Percentages and derived counts, and associated margins of error, are calculated values (that can be identified by the "_calc_" stub in the field name), and abide by the specifications defined by the American Community Survey.Field alias names were created based on the Table Shells file available from the American Community Survey Summary File Documentation page.Negative values (e.g., -4444...) have been set to null, with the exception of -5555... which has been set to zero. These negative values exist in the raw API data to indicate the following situations:The margin of error column indicates that either no sample observations or too few sample observations were available to compute a standard error and thus the margin of error. A statistical test is not appropriate.Either no sample observations or too few sample observations were available to compute an estimate, or a ratio of medians cannot be calculated because one or both of the median estimates falls in the lowest interval or upper interval of an open-ended distribution.The median falls in the lowest interval of an open-ended distribution, or in the upper interval of an open-ended distribution. A statistical test is not appropriate.The estimate is controlled. A statistical test for sampling variability is not appropriate.The data for this geographic area cannot be displayed because the number of sample cases is too small.

If used together, these layers should have corresponding date-based suffixes (YYYYMMDD). The corresponding layer names are: Intact Habitat Cores, Habitat Connectors, Habitat Fragments, Habitat Cost Surface, and Intact Habitat Cores by Betweeness. These Esri derived data, and additional data central to GI planning from other authoritative sources, are also available as Map Packages for each U.S. State and can be downloaded from the Green Infrastructure Data Gallery.

This layer represents Intact Habitat Cores, symbolized based on their connectivity importance (Betweenness Centrality (BC). BC provides a metric depicting each core’s importance in a connectivity network, thus illuminating each core’s relative contribution to facilitating landscape connectivity and potential species movement. BC represents the number of paths that flow through a given habitat core. It is normalized by the total number of shortest paths between all pairs of nodes, except those paths connecting immediate neighbors. High BC values reflect greater use of that core in traversing the network, thus elevating the core’s importance in facilitating connectivity when compared to cores of lower value. Every time you change your viewing extent, the layer dynamically recalculates to depict the most important cores, based on its betweenness centrality value.

The Habitat Cost Surface layer was used to generate a comprehensive network of Least Cost Paths (LCPs) amongst the Intact Habitat Cores layer. This was accomplished using the Cost Connectivity tool which was introduced in ArcGIS 10.4 and ArcGISPro in 1.3. The resulting Habitat Connectors layer was then utilized as the network upon which BC was calculated. The Betweenness_Centrality function in the NetworkX Python library was used to first calculate the number of cost based optimal paths passing through each core and then dividing this number by the range of values in the LCP Routes field. This work was based on the NetworkX Parallel Betweenness example. Data Coordinate System: NAD_1983_Albers

This map shows a comparable measure of crime in the United States. The crime index compares the average local crime level to that of the United States as a whole. An index of 100 is average. A crime index of 120 indicates that crime in that area is 20 percent above the national average.The crime data is provided by Applied Geographic Solutions, Inc. (AGS). AGS created models using the FBI Uniform Crime Report databases as the primary data source and using an initial range of about 65 socio-economic characteristics taken from the 2000 Census and AGS’ current year estimates. The crimes included in the models include murder, rape, robbery, assault, burglary, theft, and motor vehicle theft. The total crime index incorporates all crimes and provides a useful measure of the relative “overall” crime rate in an area. However, these are unweighted indexes, meaning that a murder is weighted no more heavily than a purse snatching in the computations. The geography depicts states, counties, Census tracts and Census block groups. An urban/rural "mask" layer helps you identify crime patterns in rural and urban settings. The Census tracts and block groups help identify neighborhood-level variation in the crime data.------------------------The Civic Analytics Network collaborates on shared projects that advance the use of data visualization and predictive analytics in solving important urban problems related to economic opportunity, poverty reduction, and addressing the root causes of social problems of equity and opportunity.
