My question is after extracting these files, how can I open these files; shp., shx., dbf., sbn. Do I need ArcGIS software? Can I open these files through ArcGIS Pro? How do I create my own data? This course is very interesting. Where can I buy ArcGIS Pro DVDs and can I have unlimited access to the software after authorizing it?
