Getting Started with ArcGIS Online for FREE

Yes! You can get started with Esri ArcGIS Online for free. I am walking you through setting up your ArcGIS account and getting started finding data and creating a map. With all of the geographic information resources Esri provides to you in the Living Atlas you can make quick engaging web maps and application to highlight your skills and get you started in a career in GIS.

Project Spatial is a community where I lead discussions about GIS strategy and how to plan out a successful geographic information system which increases effective decisions in your company and help further your GIS career. I use affiliate links which means when you purchase from my link I get a small portion of that purchase to help support my channel.

Great tip with naming something with "-delete" to know later that it can be removed.

Subbed!
I'm just beginning to explore programming as a second career; at 44, I'm learning that basing my income on physical work is risky.
Of course, everyone says "learn to code" and I get it, but I couldn't think of "what" to do with programming...? Then it hit me last night as I was reading my gazetteer: combine programming and GIS, and build apps!
Because yes...I have sat and looked at maps all of my life, much like others read novels, lol.
And I thought I was weird... ; )
Thank you for this channel, Katie!

Thanks for this. I have been using ArcMap for years…moving into ArcPro…also looking at retirement in the next few years. I appreciate the overview and what capabilities are available out there in the online NGO versions.

I am looking to get into becoming a historical gis analyst. What I mean is research properties and make maps with them. What I mean is when you click on a piece of property it shows the deed history of that property and any fun facts such as when it was built or if a event happened on that property. In order to view the deeds, you have to go to the county recorder. Another option could be to go to the recorder or show proof if id especially if you are not the property owner. This is because as to not break confidentiality and so you will not try to steal the property from the owner.

I am also wondering is it a good idea to get a geography degree with emphasis in remote sensing or get a degree in geographic information systems or just get a certificate.

[cararook]

This has been really helpful! I've always heard about Esri and GIS data as a data analyst, but have never had a use case for it until recently. Your walk through is super clear and straightforward. Thanks for this video and all the rest :)

Is the FREE ArcGIS Online able for you to get geo-distance radius locations (20 miles, 50 miles, 70 miles radius in the U.S.)? Like given, New York, and you are provided hospital locations and supplier locations, and you want 50 miles radius of suppliers from a hospital in NY.

A very infromative video - thank you. Would be useful to know a bit more about the 'groups' under a free account, because this is one of the main limitations I understand.
