Hi @BrittanyBurson Yes, almost all Esri basemaps use the Web Mercator projected coordinate system. You can't change the coordinate system (CS) of a basemap, although you can make it display in another CS by changing the CS of the map. (what we call projection-on-the-fly). The recommended best practices for this scenario are outlined in the blog I linked to above - if you walk through those steps they should cover your scenario. If you have a locally hosted basemap in your state plane CS, using it instead of Esri basemaps will prevert the warning, but it shouldn't be necessary. We have transformations available between state plane coordinate systems and web mercator, so you should be able to resolve the warning by following the steps in my blog.

You just opened a project in ArcGIS Pro and a little message popped up, warning you that a datum transformation cannot be found and that the data may draw with an offset. If that sounds scary or confusing, read this article on ArcGIS Blog to find out why you are seeing it and what you can do: https://www.esri.com/arcgis-blog/products/arcgis-pro/mapping/transformation-warning/

You will need an account to sign in to ArcGIS Pro. If you don't have an account through your work or school you can sign up for a free trial account here: https://www.esri.com/en-us/lg/training-and-services/learn-arcgis-education-trial If you have an account but are having trouble licensing ArcGIS Pro with it, see the instructions here: https://community.esri.com/t5/learn-arcgis-documents/frequently-asked-questions-for-learn-arcgis/ta-p/907371#toc-hId--1424541768

I am not sure of the best solution for updating the layer itself, but you may find the workflow smoother if you work with a web map instead. You can create a webmap in ArcGIS Online that contains your symbolized layer. Add that web map to your project in ArcGIS Pro. Whenever you want to push changes from ArcGIS Pro to ArcGIS Online, go to the Share tab on the ribbon. In the Manage group, click Save Web Map. Whenever you want to pull changes from ArcGIS Online to ArcGIS Pro, go to the Catalog pane > Project tab > Maps folder. Right-click on the web map and choose Update. The link icon on the map icon tells you that it's a link to a web map, instead of one stored locally in the project. If you take this method, any symbology changes you make will be applied to the layer's instance in that map, but not to the layer itself. So if you need to use this layer in lots of different maps, this workflow may not work for you.

Hi @hdelpuerto01 , we've sent you a direct message to help you with this.

@MartinAnok you may have more luck posting on the Python question board: https://community.esri.com/t5/python/ct-p/python

Hello @umerIdrees You can find instructions on how to download ArcGIS Pro here: https://community.esri.com/t5/learn-arcgis-documents/frequently-asked-questions-for-learn-arcgis/ta-p/907371#toc-hId--615195142 However, if you're just getting started with GIS, I recommend you start with ArcGIS Online and wait until later to try ArcGIS Pro. You do not need to download anything for ArcGIS Online, you use it in a browser. You can make the map that you describe in ArcGIS Online. Here's a lesson that shows how to do the heat map part: https://learn.arcgis.com/en/projects/map-a-historic-cholera-outbreak/ Here's some instructions on how to add data from a csv or other table file: https://www.esri.com/arcgis-blog/products/arcgis-online/data-management/turn-raw-data-into-feature-layer/ ArcGIS Online is currently experiencing some changes. At the moment there are two versions of the map viewer: Map viewer classic, and the new map viewer. You can use either one. If you are following a lesson/tutorial/course, I recommend using whichever one is shown in the instructions. As for the training courses, I think you will be fine starting with either one. I would probably choose GIS Fundamentals, but I haven't completed either course so I can't give you a very clear answer.

I am not sure about converting gdb to OSM, but you can convert your line and point layers to shapefiles as an intermediary step, using the Copy Features tool. Specify a file location for the output and add ".shp" to the end:

Hi @1674341 , You can find aquifer data here: https://www.usgs.gov/mission-areas/water-resources/science/principal-aquifers-united-states?qt-science_center_objects=0#qt-science_center_objects and here: https://www.usgs.gov/mission-areas/water-resources/science/high-plains-aquifer?qt-science_center_objects=0#qt-science_center_objects and precipitation data here: https://livingatlas.arcgis.com/en/browse/#d=2&q=precipitation There is also a lesson on Learn ArcGIS related to your topic here: https://learn.arcgis.com/en/projects/find-areas-at-risk-from-aquifer-depletion/

Hi @PROBERT68 we have recently been discussing how best to include this information. We will start adding most-recent test dates for lessons in the near future, and release versions where applicable. However it will take some time before this information is present on all lessons.

I think the long string of strange characters at the end were appended in my table because I had another survey with the same name already on my computer (from running this lesson in the past). I believe the survey is using this to make sure it references the correct file. I expect your table will only say "Residential Buildings_assessmenttype"

Sorry, the link didn't work because there is a character missing from the hyperlink. it should be https://www.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=d1624be87cf845b3a9fa1cfa4060b098 there are two excel files. I didn't realize that one was attached to my message, so I made that link. Here is the other one. You do need to delete the fields as explained in the steps. There are two forms. You delete fields in one of them, not both. You may need to back and try the steps again to see if you missed something. I was able to complete the lesson following the steps.

@PROBERT68 I ran through the lesson and placed the two excel tables here: https://www.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=d1624be87cf845b3a9fa1cfa4060b098 You can also see the final feature class that was created here: https://www.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=050bbd1dff0843f6af25b84284d5342d#overview

@PROBERT68 I don't think your survey is broken. You won't see the point you collected in the survey form. That is where the questions are stored, rather than the collected data. You should see the collected point in the Test the Preliminary Damage Assessment survey section, in step 6. The survey point you collected should be in Houston, but if it is not, you can continue with the lesson without problem. When collecting data in a location that is not where you are, you have to search, move the pin, and check the checkmark button.

Hi @PROBERT68 you can click OK on that error dialog. See the step immediately before the Modify the new survey section:
