Learning Python with GIS: A Lecture for the Absolute Beginner: Part 1 of 5 ( ArcGIS Pro Python Tour)

This video is part 1 of a 5 video series that teaches basic computer programming concepts using the Python computer programming language. This video teaches basic computer programming concepts using only the ArcGIS Pro Geographic Information Systems (GIS) software environment. If you are interested in GIS and learning how to get started with computer programming, this video series will help you grow your skill set.


The five videos discuss the following topics:


Video 1 (this video): Video Overview, Scope of computer programming concepts discussed in the five part video series (Variables, Lists, Conditional Statements, Definitions, Looping, and Modules ) What is Python, A Tour of Python in ArcGIS Pro (ArcGIS Pro ships with Python IDLE, Python window, Export Model Scripts, Field Calculator, Label Class, Notebooks in ArcGIS Pro (v2.5) (Jupyter Notebooks), Python Manager, ArcPy)
