Providing user-friendly interfaces in your applications is crucial for increasing task completion and user satisfaction. This can be particularly important for geospatial applications, as these may include a high degree of complexity or may be used by the public or non-GIS professionals. This workshop will introduce you to ArcGIS Experience Builder, a new development platform from Esri that allows you to build custom Web apps for desktop and mobile devices using a drag-and-drop interface. You will learn how to develop an app using Experience Builder’s layout and widget options, as well as some best practices for integrating Experience Builder into a larger user-interface design process and optimizing your app’s interface for greater usability.

About this itemThis Experience Builder App combines two story maps and a webmap that showcase Moorhead's River Corridor Trail System. The first Storymap and landing page describes the history of the trail's development and details how it was built in phases and involved partnerships with multiple organizations. The second Storymap focuses on the newly installed interpretive signs highlighting local and natural history, as well as environmental lessons. The Webmap lets users explore the corridor digitally, or helps them navigate while using the trail. The experience can be accessed by scanning a QR code printed on the interpretive signs along the trail. During the summer of 2024, a Survey 123 questionnaire was integrated into the Experience to collect demographic data about trail users as well as feedback about their experience while using the trail. By combining multiple apps into one, this reduces the number of links on the city webpage and users are presented with a more cohesive experience.

Prior experience of GIS is variable, but a number of PGCE students and in-service teachers reported negative prior experiences with geospatial technology. Common complaints include a course focussed on data students found irrelevant, with learning exercises in the form of list-like instructions. The complexity of desktop GIS software is also often mentioned as off-putting.

This will audit all of the web App Builder Applications in an organization, and provide a list of the widgets within them. The list will be in a csv file. You can then cross reference the list of widgets with the following blog, in order to prioritize the order with which you migrate your Web App Builder Applications to Experience Builder. https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-experience-builder-documents/functionality-matrix-for-web-appbuilder-and/ta-p/1113766

eXtension Foundation, the University of New Hampshire, and Virginia Tech have developed a mapping and data exploration tool to assist Cooperative Extension staff and administrators in making strategic planning and programming decisions. The tool, called the National Extension Web-mapping Tool (or NEWT), is the key in efforts to make spatial data available within cooperative extension system. NEWT requires no GIS experience to use. NEWT provides access for CES staff and administrators to relevant spatial data at a variety of scales (national, state, county) in useful formats (maps, tables, graphs), all without the need for any experience or technical skills in Geographic Information System (GIS) software. By providing consistent access to relevant spatial data throughout the country in a format useful to CES staff and administrators, NEWT represents a significant advancement for the use of spatial technology in CES. Users of the site will be able to discover the data layers which are of most interest to them by making simple, guided choices about topics related to their work. Once the relevant data layers have been chosen, a mapping interface will allow the exploration of spatial relationships and the creation and export of maps. Extension areas to filter searches include 4-H Youth & Family, Agriculture, Business, Community, Food & Health, and Natural Resources. Users will also be able to explore data by viewing data tables and graphs. This Beta release is open for public use and feedback. Resources in this dataset:Resource Title: Website Pointer to NEWT National Extension Web-mapping Tool Beta. File Name: Web Page, url: https://www.mapasyst.org/newt/ The site leads the user through the process of selecting the data in which they would be most interested, then provides a variety of ways for the user to explore the data (maps, graphs, tables).

In this course, you will explore a variety of open-source technologies for working with geosptial data, performing spatial analysis, and undertaking general data science. The first component of the class focuses on the use of QGIS and associated technologies (GDAL, PROJ, GRASS, SAGA, and Orfeo Toolbox). The second component of the class introduces Python and associated open-source libraries and modules (NumPy, Pandas, Matplotlib, Seaborn, GeoPandas, Rasterio, WhiteboxTools, and Scikit-Learn) used by geospatial scientists and data scientists. We also provide an introduction to Structured Query Language (SQL) for performing table and spatial queries. This course is designed for individuals that have a background in GIS, such as working in the ArcGIS environment, but no prior experience using open-source software and/or coding. You will be asked to work through a series of lecture modules and videos broken into several topic areas, as outlined below. Fourteen assignments and the required data have been provided as hands-on opportunites to work with data and the discussed technologies and methods. If you have any questions or suggestions, feel free to contact us. We hope to continue to update and improve this course.

This layer represents the surface condition rating per trail system collected while riding the data bike along trails for the Massachusetts Trail Surface Condition Study in 2022. The surface condition rating is calculated by a weighted average of the 10-meter interval ratings along a trail's length with rougher sections weighted more. This layer provides both a raw average and a weighted average. Surface condition data was collected via the rRuf application, which was running on an iPhone mounted on the bike's handlebars.
