The workshops, which will be held January 27\u201328, will be taught by leading geospatial and design evangelists.\r\n<h3>Redlands Redevelopment: Esri CityEngine Training<\/h3>\r\nEsri's Geoff Taylor, Brooks Patrick, Patrick Gahagan, and Eric Wittner will show you how\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.esri.com\/software\/cityengine\">Esri CityEngine<\/a>\u00a0was used to develop a new design vision for downtown Redlands, California. Through 3D visualization and simulation, a defunct mall was replaced by a mix of shops and residences to make the downtown more vibrant. Solar panels were also added to rooftops. During this training, you will learn how to import data, create 3D models, and modify rules\u2014all part of data-driven planning.\r\n<h3>Practicing Geodesign Using ArcGIS<\/h3>\r\nLearn<strong>\u00a0<\/strong>how to spatially enable the geodesign workflow using ArcGIS and spatial modeling techniques typically taught in a graduate-level spatial lab. The class will take you through the entire geodesign process. You will learn how to prepare data, build models, and quickly evaluate the impacts of individual design decisions on the overall plan. This session will be taught by Esri certified instructors.\r\n<h3>Story Maps: Using ArcGIS as a Communications Medium<\/h3>\r\nBern Szukalski, Esri technology evangelist, will show you how to create a\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/storymaps.esri.com\/home\/\">story map<\/a>. Map-based storytelling combines web maps with web applications and templates\u2014incorporating text, multimedia such as video, and interactive functions, to tell stories about places, attractions, projects, events, and more.\r\n<h3>Hands-on Introduction to CommunityViz Software for Geodesign<\/h3>\r\nLearn how to use CommunityViz software from\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/placeways.com\/company\/index.php\">Placeways<\/a>\u00a0for urban and regional planning analysis, visualization, and public engagement.
