Automate Export of Multiple Map Images by Column
Hello, I'm looking for guidance on how to automatically export multiple layouts as png or jpg images based upon a pre-configured layout that I manually set up (symbology, scale, scale bar, north arrow, etc.). I have a dataset that has 365 columns of daily measurements in a full calendar year (1 Jan - 31 Dec). My ultimate goal is to create an animated gif map of these values over time. I would like to export a consistently-themed layout for each day as jpg or png so I can create this gif. An example image of part of my dataset is below.
Question #1: Anyone know how to automatically export 365 daily jpg/png files from this?
Question #2 (bonus question): Any tips on how I can automatically add a custom annotation header to each jpg/png file? I would like the calendar date to be annotated at the top of each image (for example, the map image for column Day001 would have an image heading "January 1", and so on....).
TIA!
