Technically, it's the wrong Pi but hey, it's close enough for Pi Day.....

 

For those schools and after school clubs that use Raspberry Pi micro-computers, I've posted a working set of 
instructions to get the ArcGIS API for Python running on a Pi 3.  See the draft.

 

Happy Pi Day!

I have been trying to get this to run, but when I open Jupyter and try to make a map, it tells me that arcgis module is not installed.  I have seen that it installed and I am running Python 3.6.1 and would like to get this working as a step towards building a PI that can add points to a map with the push of a button, and remove those points, just as easily.  Any ideas why it can't find the arcgis module?

With package manager are you using?  I used Berryconda for that installation.

@TomBaker - Your link above '404's - is this 'dead' or does it still exist?

Thanks Brian.  Link above updated.  I have not yet had time to verify the process still works four years later.  😁
