Getting to Know Web GIS

The new second edition of Getting to Know Web GIS features detailed, step-by-step exercises that teach readers how to share resources online and build web GIS applications easily and quickly. This workbook includes the latest upgrades and advances, such as smart mapping, AppStudio, ArcGIS Pro and scene services. The book covers the Esri suite of web GIS technologies, including ArcGIS Online, Portal for ArcGIS, ArcGIS for Server, web app templates, Web AppBuilder for ArcGIS, ArcGIS API for JavaScript, the Collector for ArcGIS mobile app, mobile SDKs, and 3D web scenes. You do not have to be a developer to build web apps with little or no programming. Instead of focusing on individual products, this book teaches web GIS technologies as a holistic platform. In each chapter, students complete an application project using multiple products from the browser/client side to the server side. Data for completing the exercises is available for download.
