It can also be used to document the project's contents. An example of metadata would be the description and name of a scene or map. The Properties button on the toolbar, or in the Details window, allows you to edit the metadata for each item in a Project.
ArcGIS Pro projects are reusable--the objects in them (such as scenes and maps) can be copied to other projects. Also, components of the project (such as toolboxes and geodatabases) can be moved or renamed from one location to another. Additionally, many items can be accessed through connections without being stored in the project file itself.
The Project tab is located on the main page of ArcGIS Pro. You can select to open a recently completed project or create a brand new project using a template. It is possible to create a project by using the Map template. This opens a map with an topographic basemap.
You can save a project to the local computer or to a folder on your active portal. The default location for projects is C: Users username> Documents ArcGIS Projects. If you wish to save your project into a folder you can check the Create folder for this project in the New Project dialog.
If you can, it's a recommended to keep your data, ArcGIS Pro installations, and project files on the same machine to cut down on round-trip time for communication. In some instances however, it's impossible to locate these components on the same machine, or you may prefer to share your project files, data and other resources on networks.
Data Assistant Add-in
The Data Assistant Addin is a collection of tools placed in a Data Assistant Toolbar. These tools allow you to create source and target configuration files, as well as load or replace data.
These tools, when utilized in conjunction the Community Data Aggregation Solution, allow staff to transform and load data sources into an aggregated layer for community use and schedule automated updates on a regular base. These tools let you customize the solution for your particular organization.
To utilize the Data Assistant Add-in, you must install it on each ArcGIS Pro machine that will be used to migrate data to one or more community layers. To download the add-in go to the Content section of ArcGIS and click on the Data Assistant item.
Once the add-in is downloaded, follow the installation instructions to install it. After installation, you must close all open ArcGIS applications prior to opening the new ArcGIS Pro session. Once installed you can open the add-in by clicking the Data Assistant icon in the ArcGIS Pro toolbar.
When the Data Assistant Add-in has been installed, you can create a Data Mapping file by using the Configure Data Mapping dialog box. This dialog box lets you to define the field mapping and settings of the source-target configuration. Once configured the Replace Data tool will replace the data in the target layer from the source layer according to the settings selected. This tool lets you stage results locally and skip final processing if you just replace data in a subset of records.
