GIS Guidebook: Designing and Building Tasks: for ArcGIS Pro

The new Task Items in ArcGIS Pro allow you to develop a step-by-step script that guides users through a workflow or process. This book is designed to teach you how to document, streamline, and develop the processes that step through your workflows using Tasks. The book contains discussions of the topics associated with tasks, and examples of how they are used. Each section also has descriptions of the building process and parameter settings for these items so that you will not only understand the examples shown here but be able to transfer that knowledge to your own workflows and processes. After each of the discussion sections there are exercises to work through that will provide some hands-on experience with the features and settings, including tips and tricks for their best use. At the end of the book are two project suggestions that you can complete on your own, either with the provided data or using your own data sets.

David Allen has been writing GIS textbooks for many years and this new series from GISGuidebooks.com is his attempt at shorter, more concise books on a more focused topic. He has over 18 years of teaching experience and over 35 years of on-the-job GIS work, which gives his books a real-world perspective but explained in simple terms for most students.
