ArcGIS Model Builder and Python Course Overview

ArcGIS Desktop software contains ModelBuilder, which is a work flow tool that enables the creation and execution of consistent, repeatable models that are comprised of one or more processing steps. ModelBuilder workflows can be created and executed on both the desktop and over the web. Parameters can be defined that will be filled into a pop-up form at runtime. Model workflows can also be rerun with different data or inputs for evaluating scenarios. Models created can also be exported as scripts in Python and other programming languages.

Python is becoming more and more popular for writing custom scripts in ArcGIS. Python scripts can be used to manipulate a map, execute geoprocessing commands, and read/write files. This course takes a leveled approach to writing scripts; beginning with basic Python syntax and simple scripts, ending with scripts that read files, manipulate the information, and create GIS data.
