The GIS Professional's Guide to Experience Builder
Classroom E
$150
Instructor: Daniela Spade
Participants will need to bring their own laptops with ArcGIS Pro installed.
ArcGIS Experience Builder (ExpB) is a lot to take in for the beginner. From the extensive template library (over 70 to choose from, compared with Web AppBuilder’s 10) to the builder itself, there is a definite learning curve when creating your first, second, third…tenth web application in ExpB. The truth is that ExpB does come with a steep learning curve because it is more complex than Web AppBuilder (WAB), but it is also a more powerful and robust tool.
Because WAB is retiring, the goal of this workshop is to teach you how to build web applications from scratch in ExpB. You will also learn how to recreate an existing WAB application using ExpB. Specific topics covered:
Afternoon Workshops

The Comprehensive Fieldwork Solution - ArcGIS Field Maps
Classroom A
$150
Instructor: ESRI Staff
Participants will require their own laptops and mobile devices for the session.
Discover ArcGIS Field Maps, the single app essential for your mobile workforce to streamline map-centric tasks. Field workers can seamlessly collect data, annotate maps, track locations, fulfill assignments, and navigate to assets—all within one application. This not only saves time for field workers by simplifying app usage but also reduces configuration efforts for you, as you only need to set up maps for one app. During this session, you'll learn how to configure maps to align with your field workflows, prepare maps for offline usage, and efficiently collect data in the field. Using your own mobile device, you'll test and deploy your map to ensure readiness for your mobile team.
