GIS Software Tutorial: Introduction to ArcGIS Online for Java Script and GeoGames

Class is in session! In this video, I do an overview of the ArcGIS Online environment. Specifically, I do a high-level overview of the various functionalities of ArcGIS Online that include looking through a gallery of other data sets within an organization, creating a simple two-dimensional map that draws upon a variety of data layer sources, a three-dimensional scene layer, and then a review of how to manage content within your ArcGIS Online organizational account. I then do a brief overview of two of the most popular apps that can be found within ArcGIS Online: Story maps and Dashboards.
The discussion then goes to a more in-depth review of the concept of data layers within ArcGIS Online. This topic is explored in more depth to demonstrate how the layers that are stored in ArcGIS Online are connected into other types of applications that require computer programming such as the use of an ArcGIS Online feature layer inside of a JavaScript application and the use of three-dimensional scene layers inside of the Arc GIS SDK for Unity for making GeoGames.
A focus is made on showing how ArcGIS Online feature layers are connected using JavaScript code using a Hands-On web development example.
This tutorial is specifically designed to provide core background on the software to prepare students who will need to create geospatial data sets that will be used in applications such as python computer programming, GeoGames, and JavaScript applications.
This tutorial was recorded during one of my lectures at the Rochester Institute of Technology.
