As a GIS lover, I\u2019m a geek for data. Here\u2019s the 2017 Esri User Conference by the numbers: 5 days, 300+ exhibitors, 450+ hours of hands-on training, 1000+ sessions, 17,000+ attendees, and several thousand opportunities interact with each other and grow our GIS community.<\/p>\n

With the huge number of experiences you can have at UC, you\u2019ll want to make the most of every day. If you\u2019re interested in spending some time at UC getting to know ArcGIS Pro a little better, here are some tips for you.<\/p>\n

1.\u00a0<\/strong>Put your social apps to work<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Two apps you\u2019ll find especially handy: Twitter<\/a> and the Esri Events app<\/a>.<\/p>\n

On Twitter, follow @ArcGISPro<\/a>, @EsriUC<\/a>, and keep up to date with #EsriUC<\/a>. You\u2019ll see what events are trending and get the latest news on the feed.<\/p>\n

\"Follow<\/a><\/p>\n

Download the Esri Events app and use it to schedule all of your ArcGIS Pro sessions, workshops, and meetings. Click on the Esri User Conference tile, and search for ArcGIS Pro<\/em>\u00a0to find sessions and workshops. You can even add reminders to your schedule so you don\u2019t miss any of your favorite events.<\/p>\n

\"Add<\/a>
1. Click Add Reminder. 2. Set the slider to green. 3. A gold star will appear by the sessions that are added to your calendar.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

2.\u00a0<\/strong>Check out what others are doing with ArcGIS Pro<\/strong><\/h2>\n

One of your best resources for inspiration and learning are your colleagues. ArcGIS Pro users are doing some pretty amazing things and you can see that work shine at UC.<\/p>\n

Lots of incredible maps made with ArcGIS Pro will be on display in the Map Gallery. The Opening and Evening reception on Monday, July 10 between 3:30 and 7:00 p.m. is the perfect time to check out some beautiful maps and ask questions of the mapmakers themselves. All map entries are eligible for the People’s Choice Award, so vote for your favorite!<\/p>\n
