About the GIS Professional user type

Build advanced 2D and 3D maps, visualizations, and analyses using ArcGIS Pro, the professional desktop GIS application. In addition to ArcGIS Pro, the GIS Professional user type license includes full access to ArcGIS Online, where you can collaboratively build web maps and share them through apps. GIS analysts, geodevelopers, and cartographers are likely to find the GIS Professional user type a good match for their job responsibilities. The GIS Professional is a foundational user type, which means it can administer ArcGIS Online or ArcGIS Enterprise and can be purchased independently or paired with other user types.

With the GIS Professional user type, you can perform the following capabilities:

  • Create and manage 2D and 3D location data
