Python with Labeling and Calculate Field (Module 5 of 9)

This resource, provided by the GeoTech Center, is the fifth 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 focuses on adding Python scripts to specific ArcGIS Pro tools. Topics covered include using code to create and apply labels in ArcGIS Pro using Python, using Extensible Markup Language (XML) to edit label text (font, size, color, etc.), using Python to create values for attributes in the ArcGIS calculate field tool. The module includes two assignments with brief videos and three video lessons accompanying the module.

Other modules in the course are available to view separately.
