I believe the issue lies with your avatar.  If you change it to a Vikings Logo the sky will be blue for you once again.   On  a less serious note.  I just looked at the results of all locations collected in the field in the last 3 months for one of my apps and they are all uppercase.   ...

Yes, open the .csv in Excel and make sure all columns have headers.  And headers that are appropriate. Best practice for .csv headers are with no special characters other than Underscore  "_"  And they should not start with numbers. Though with newer version they can be added. I have a .csv provided to me for Arc Flash data that contains spaces and the @ symbol.  However, I immediately load them into an appropriate table  ... View more

Talk to your GIS professional in your office on how to log into your Portal. If you are offline then you cannot load the maps.   It is like having gas in a gas can in your garage and you run out 23.4 miles away. ... View more

You are in ArcMap with Data Driven pages.   If your data driven pages are based on the Polygons it is quite easy. Once you have your Data Driven pages enabled and set up. Open the feature class you based them on, in this example I am going to say your parcel layer.   Open the properties and the Definition Query Tab. You will now have an option called Page Definition.   You choose the field you based the DDP on and select Match.  Then when you are on a giving DDP only that parcel will be visible.    ...

Not to detract to much from some responses, they are good information. I will always suggest this projection for all GIS Projects until something more universally functional comes along. WGS_1984_Web_Mercator_Auxiliary_Sphere WKID: 3857 Authority: EPSG ... View more

You can purchase an annual subscription to AGOL. Though I don't know how useful it would be having to rely on public data.  Never tried actually. https://www.esri.com/en-us/arcgis/products/arcgis-online/buy#for-individuals However, when I retire I may do this because I don't think I would be able to stand not doing GIS after I retire. ...

The short answer is several thousand words 🙂 So I will post a document link to get you started. https://doc.arcgis.com/en/field-maps/android/help/prepare-maps-for-download.htm Once you learn the process it is quite easy but it may take a few tries to get it right. I would suggest testing this out on test data first   ... View more

I would suggest then posting the question in this forum. https://community.esri.com/t5/training-in-gis/gh-p/training-in-gis I believe it is monitored by ESRI Staff who work with training.

I get it now.   I don't know if you will find a lot of people that can provide nitty gritty statistics. The hardware recommendations are pretty low.  But that being said there is going to be poor performance with those recommendation. Pro will utilize multiple cores at a time depending on what the user is doing.  Think of it as very similar usage to a high end video game. My company low balls us with GIS Computers and it is frustrating waiting for my computer to catch up. I only have a i7 Gen 8 with 4 cores, 16 GB RAM, and worst of all integrated grapics. For most daily basic operations this works fine.  But when I try calculating thousands of entries at a time it is bogged down, or the further I zoom out and the more that is on my screen it really goes down hill.  Especially if I have large Rasters visible.   I have a wall map project I have set up. On my work computer it may take a minute to several to generate the full view.  And then exporting that map can take a long time. As an experiment I loaded Pro onto my personal computer i9 10th Gen with 8 cores, 32 GB of ram and a RTX 3080 GPU. When it takes me 10 minutes to process that wall map for export, my personal computer does it in 10 seconds. Suffice it to say Pro can stress processor, ram, and graphics capability.   ... View more
