ArcGIS AllSource is a GIS application designed specifically for intelligence professionals. ArcGIS AllSource enables sharing and collaborating through ArcGIS Online and ArcGIS Enterprise portals, so information and assessments can be disseminated quickly throughout your organization. Migrating from ArcMap to ArcGIS AllSource is a straightforward process.
Maps, scenes, and globes
Maps, scenes, and globes allow you to visualize geographic data. Maps display layers that represent spatial data in 2D, 3D, or basemaps. Scenes in ArcGIS AllSource are 3D representations of your map and data. Globes allow display and exploration of raster and rasterized vector data, and they allow the data to be spatially referenced and displayed in its true geodetic location.
Import maps (.mxd), globes (.3dd), and scenes (.sxd) into an ArcGIS AllSource project using Import Map on the Map tab. Maps exported from ArcGIS AllSource cannot be opened in ArcMap.
To learn more about maps, scenes, and globes in ArcGIS AllSource, see Export a map or layout, Scenes, and Add maps and scenes to a project.
Packages
A package is a compressed file that contains GIS data. You can share a package as you share any other file—through email, FTP, the cloud, thumb drives, and so on. In addition, you can also share packages with other users through ArcGIS Online and ArcGIS Enterprise.
Import map packages (.mpk) using Import Map on the Map tab.
To learn more about packages, see Introduction to disseminating packages.
Styles
Styles are containers that store symbols, colors, color schemes, label placements, and layout items. They promote consistency and standardization across maps, scenes, and layouts.
ArcMap styles (.style) must be converted to ArcGIS AllSource styles (.stylx) to be used in ArcGIS AllSource. To convert styles, use Import in the Styles group on the View tab.
To learn more about styles, see Styles
Geoprocessing
Geoprocessing is a framework and set of tools for processing geographic and related data. You can use geoprocessing tools to perform spatial analysis or manage GIS data in an automated way. The typical geoprocessing tool performs an operation on a dataset, such as a feature class, raster, or table, and creates a resulting output dataset.
- ArcMap tools are built with Python 2. ArcGIS AllSource tools are built with Python 3. Tools must be upgraded from Python 2 to Python 3.
- The Analyze Tools For Pro tool analyzes custom scripts and geoprocessing tools and reports on issues to repair for use in ArcGIS AllSource.
To learn more about geoprocessing, see Introduction to geoprocessing, Geoprocessing tool locations and access, Use a geoprocessing tool, and Work with geoprocessing history.
