Silly question:  I want to use Jupyter notebooks to process some raster data that I've downloaded and stored locally.  The volume of data prohibits me from uploading it to ArcGIS Online so I want to work with locally stored TIF files.  However, I can't figure out how to interact with the data when it's not in ArcGIS Online!  I'm sure it's a trivial thing but if anyone can help me I'd super appreciate it!

can't you just use import arcpy when in Jupyter Notebook?  since your data is local I don't think you need to use the traditional:

from arcgis.gis import GIS

just:

import arcpy
That should just about do it....
