Last year at Exprodat we decided to hold an internal competition that would couple the keen minds of our staff and our deeply ingrained love of (quality) maps.

Web GIS Is Not Optional (Unlike Your IT Department)

I came away from this year’s excellent Esri Business Partner Conference with one clear message: ArcGIS is a Web GIS system (or rather, ‘an integrated Web GIS Platform’ in Esri speak).

Re-evaluating your GIS

Look around, and you’ll find GIS everywhere – in obvious and less obvious ways. From Google Maps to air traffic control, from parcel tracking to land use analysis, geographical information systems have come to underpin every major aspect of our economy, including oil and gas.

I have recently been looking at the ArcGIS Pro SDK to develop some custom apps. When I started using the fine grained API to create functions I soon found that I needed to use Esri’s QueuedTask. For example, if I try to get the table of a feature layer I receive this error: “This method…

Converting Models to Scripts - Cleaning Tips

Models to Scripts: Cleaning Tips

Introduction In my current role, scripting is by far my favourite activity. I’ve always enjoyed language, and in the same way I enjoy writing and reading other’s scripts. Although reading, understanding, and altering scripts written by others can often be seen as an area where the drudgery must be mitigated or avoided, I enjoy trying…

Using Topology to Minimise Digitising Error

Tip 30: Using Topology to Minimise Digitising Errors

Topology is the study of geometrical properties and spatial relations that are unaffected by continuous changes in the shape and size of a figure. A topologist doesn’t see any difference between a donut and a coffee cup. In ArcGIS, topology in a geodatabase is the arrangement that defines how point, line and polygon features share…

Tip 29 Using ModelBuilder Iterators

Tip 29: Using ModelBuilder Iterators

Build once, process many! In a previous blog it was discussed how you can use ArcPy to perform batch geoprocessing instead of using the ‘batch’ option for a tool. There is however a 3rd way you could consider that is far quicker than using the ‘batch’ option, plus you don’t need to know any Python!…
