Basic 3D Animation with ArcGIS Pro

Abstract

<p>This task sheet will guide you in creating a 3D Animation video using ESRI’s ArcGIS Pro software. In previous versions of ArcGIS, 2D-mapping is done using ArcMap, while 3D-mapping is done using ArcScene or ArcGlobe. Now, ArcGIS Pro does it all. You can even have multiple scenes and maps in one project file, enabling you to easily view and analyze your data in multiple ways. In this task sheet, you’ll use Esri’s basemaps and terrain data to create a fun animation, visualizing an approach from space to a location on earth’s surface. All the spatial data used is included with the software, “out of the box”—no extra data required!</p>
