Welcome to Esri Community resources for the Working with Parcel Data in ArcGIS Pro course.
This course teaches how to maintain accurate, up-to-date, and authoritative parcel data using the parcel fabric in ArcGIS Pro. You will learn a standard workflow to create a parcel fabric in a file geodatabase, add parcel data to the fabric, and edit parcels to reflect real-world changes. This course assumes familiarity with land-records terminology.
The ArcGIS Parcel Fabric Place is your main source for Parcel Fabric information on Esri Community.
In addition to the ArcGIS Parcel Fabric Place, you can find video resources that walk through different parcel fabric concepts and workflows by visiting the ArcGIS Parcel Fabric Videos Place.
Many of the presentations that get posted as videos can be attended live on the Parcel Fabric Meetup. Be sure to sign up for announcements!
The Parcel fabric help is your authoritative guide to the Parcel fabric.
