Arc GIS is a very good software application to solve complex problems of land administration boundary with hydrological problems.

I have route data in gpx format is it possible to convert it into a video format using arcgis is there any api I can use to upload data and download video file

[@eGISAssociates]

Interesting question. The short answer is yes. ArcGIS Desktop and ArcGIS Pro can import GPX files. In ArcGIS Desktop I believe you must have the 3D Analyst Extension to create videos. In ArcGIS Pro I believe you can do it natively. To be honest I don't have a lot of experience creating videos from within ArcGIS. But I do know it is possible.

Would you mind provide me with this presentation if you don't mind.

[@tamilarcgisuniversity]

Good video, well Explained....

[@sergnextdoor5213]

can you create a map on arcgis pro (desktop) and upload it to arcgis online for others to see?

[@eGISAssociates]

Yes you can. The Share tab allows you to share a web map to ArcGIS Online. Once published to ArcGIS Online, you can then share it with those in your organization, in a specific group or with everyone.

[@sergnextdoor5213]

@@eGISAssociates Thank you. Second, question, why would someone choose to use Arcgis pro desktop over the online version?

[@eGISAssociates]

@@sergnextdoor5213 Functionality is the simple answer. ArcGIS Pro has a lot more capability than ArcGIS Online. ArcGIS Online is not designed to replace the traditional desktop applications. It is designed to complement the desktop apps by allowing users to share content they create on the desktop with others who might not have the software or that wish to access it using mobile devices.

[@olabisiabraham801]

Wow! Thanks so much. Very helpful. My question is, the map data in the ArcPro, are they strictly for USA users or international? I mean can I access data relevant to my country?

[@eGISAssociates]

Esri basemaps cover the entire world. They are not limited to just the US or North America. Other data is available via ArcGIS Online from around the world. The amount of data available will vary from location to location. Data available via ArcGIS Online is not just published by Esri but also by its user base. So the more users in an area the more data that will typically be available for use.

[@bazenhaile7742]

Thank you, this is really helpful.

[@eGISAssociates]

I work for a City who has a GIS department. We control the utilities side of things. Locations, type, roads, materials, and other information tied to the attibutes. Nobody knows what we do, nobody knows the information we have. Nobody knows how to ask us questions because nobody understands the information we have. I have not properly used anything in our data for well over a year. Basically I sit at my employment and read news, check out google and shop sales flyers. At what point do i go to my employer and tell them the truth about what i do and what i think about this whole GIS idea and what a waste of time and money it is for the organization. It costs $500k a year for us to run this nonsense and nobody understands it or utilizes what we have. Thanks.... Confused Carl

[@67Stang]

I am a little confused by your question. Are you in the GIS department and oversee the utility data or something else. Assuming you are in the know about GIS and the data that exists, I have another question you might consider. If no one knows what you do and no one knows how to ask you questions or understand the data you have, why don't you educate others so they have a better understanding instead of just reading news, checking out google or looking at sales flyers. You could hold lunch and learns, send links to youtube videos with good information instruction or encourage them to go to conferences with GIS content. You could also go the their offices and find out what their concerns are so you might suggest how the GIS might help. Have you tried to deploy a web app or two to make things easier to access. Any and all of these activities can help add value to what you do within your organization. I have had to do things like this throughout my career. BTW I am the one that is talking in this video. I am not with this company anymore but still doing GIS.
