Notepad function in ArcGIS Pro?

hm_stella — Mon, 11 Sep 2023 04:07:28 GMT

Hi,

One of my customers is migrating from ArcMap to ArcGIS Pro.

He'd like to know if there's a notepad function in ArcGIS Pro data reviewer just as ArcMap has in the data reviewer table.

If there's a function already in ArcGIS Pro or a future plan for this, could you please share it?

Thanks!

Hello @hm_stella ,

The Notepad functionality is not available yet. Currently, you can only use point geometry with the semi-automated review tools. However, you can create a file geodatabase containing the notepad feature classes for digitizing error geometry and perform your review using the editing tools. In the end of your review, you can transfer the digitized features from your file geodatabase to the Reviewer Workspace using the Write To Reviewer Table tool.

To reuse the file geodatabase with the notepad geometry for each review session, you can save it as a layer package that will contain symbology and the database.

The process of transferring the notepad geometries using the Write To Reviewer Table tool can be automated using model builder.

Thanks,

Paulina

As @PaulinaKarkauskaite pointed-out, some of the basic tools used in visual QC review are already available in ArcGIS Pro and there are additional tools planned for future releases.

That said, I'd be interested in getting feedback on QC requirements your customer envisions needing after their migration to ArcGIS Pro. This input would help the team ensure that Pro-based workflows reflect current needs of data production workflows and improve over those created in the past.

Feel free to send me a message if you'd like to schedule a meet-up!
