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.
Symbol layer drawing settings are maintained when you import a map from ArcMap, but only if symbol leveling drawing is enabled in the ArcMap map document at the time of import.
Point symbols that originate from imported ArcMap map documents (.mxd files) derive their alignment setting based on the setting of the document. In most cases, this results in point symbols with alignment set to the map in ArcGIS AllSource. This property is set in ArcMap in the Advanced ArcMap Setting utility.
When you import a map or scene from ArcMap, ArcScene, Or ArcGlobe, or by importing a style, existing symbol offset values are converted to anchor points. Values may not be exactly equal to account for rotation differences.
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 Pro styles (.stylx) to be used in ArcGIS AllSource. To convert styles, use Import in the Styles group on the View tab. Browse to [install drive ]:\Program Files(x86)\ArcGIS\Desktop<Version #>\Styles. Choose a style and click OK If the style references fonts for character markers, ensure that the font is installed on your computer. An ArcGIS AllSource .stylx version of the style is created in the project home folder and added to your project.
Custom representation geometric effects applied to symbols in ArcMap will be dropped when the symbols are converted into ArcGIS Pro. Symbols are converted by either importing symbolized maps and scenes or by importing styles into an ArcGIS Pro project.
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 Pro tools are built with Python 3. You must upgrade your tools 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.
