Getting Started With Python (Module 2 of 9)

This resource, provided by the GeoTech Center, is the second of nine online modules in the Python and Geospatial Mapping course. The course is designed for experienced users of Global Information Systems (GIS) platforms who are new to programming, with the goal of teaching them how to use Python to automate processes through the construction of short scripts in ArcGIS Pro.

This module covers necessary information for learners to write Python scripts applicable to geoprocessing. Learners will study script comments, string and numeric variables, print, decision, and for statements, and more. The lesson includes four brief video assignments. Subsequent lessons integrate the skills learned from module 2 with ArcGIS Pro.

Other modules in the course are available to view separately.
