Streamlining Data Collection with ArcGIS Field Maps
Tuesday October 13, 2026 8:00am - 12:00pm PDT
ArcGIS Field Maps is the go-to app for viewing maps, collecting data, performing inspections, sharing location, and providing situational awareness in the field. This hands-on workshop will include techniques for data design, form configuration with Field Maps Designer, mobile app set up, and using the app in the field. We’ll also cover the new Tasks feature in ArcGIS Field Maps so you can start coordinating work assignments like inspections and repairs.

Introduction to Python
Tuesday October 13, 2026 8:30am - 5:00pm PDT
Description

Python is now regarded as one of the most popular programming languages of all, if not the most popular. This is especially true for GIS-related requirements, with Python being front and center when it comes to making the most of the ArcGIS technology suite. This workshop will provide an introduction to Python programming without reference to GIS topics, but with an emphasis on preparing attendees for further learning with respect to GIS scripting and development. The workshop will also be helpful for anyone wishing to use Python for other purposes.
Three topics will be covered in the workshop: (1) Getting started with Python; (2) Use of an Integrated Development Environment (IDE) (attendees may use either JetBrains PyCharm Community Edition or Microsoft Visual Studio Code (both free)); and (3) Python fundamentals, including functions and objects, and error handling.
Intended Audience
Anyone wishing to learn the fundamentals of Python programming.
Prerequisite Requirements
There are no prerequisite requirements. It will be assumed that attendees have little experience with Python or are starting from scratch.
Format and Technical Requirements

The workshop will consist of a balance between lecture material and demonstrations, forming the basis for a flexible and interactive training approach. There will be plenty of time for discussion and experimentation, which will result in a rich and rewarding experience for everyone involved.
Attendees must bring their own laptop.

Setup
Setup steps will be provided and must be completed prior to the workshop and attendees will be contacted to ensure that the required software is installed and that they can save workshop files onto their machine. Attendees are asked, therefore, to make sure they can be reached via the email address and phone number they used to register for the workshop.

ArcGIS + AI: Where to find new capabilities and how to use them
Tuesday October 13, 2026 1:00pm - 5:00pm PDT
Today you can find AI capabilities across ArcGIS that support a variety of workflows. From AI Assistants powered by large language models to computer vision and deep learning workflows, this hands-on workshop will provide insight into how ArcGIS is a geospatial AI platform and how organizations can adapt it for their use. We'll provide an overview of Esri's approach to AI, the products and capabilities available today, and how users of all types (GIS professionals, executives, and the public) can interact with and benefit from these tools.
