Artificial Intelligence (AI) in ArcGIS
Instructors: Miriam Schmidts (Senior Instructor, ESRI)
Date: Tuesday July 7th, 2026
Experience level of participants: Basic familiarity with ArcGIS Pro, ArcGIS Online, preferably also basic familiarity with Survey 123.
Description: ArcGIS continues to evolve with powerful AI capabilities. In ArcGIS Pro, GeoAI tools enable advanced spatial analysis, making it easier to extract insights from imagery, text, and other geospatial data. Across ArcGIS apps—including ArcGIS Pro, ArcGIS Online, and Survey123—AI Assistants now provide natural, intuitive interactions that help streamline workflows and boost productivity. In this workshop, we’ll explore key GeoAI tools in ArcGIS Pro and get hands‑on with AI Assistants across ArcGIS Pro, ArcGIS Online, and Survey123 to see how these capabilities can enhance your daily GIS work
Software/hardware: coming soon!
Advanced Techniques for Intuitive Field Surveys using ESRI's Field Maps and Survey 123
Instructor: Matthew Fountain
Date: Friday July 10th, 2026
Experience level of participants: Basic understanding of the ESRI ArcGIS Online Environment, experience with using Field Maps, and basic understanding of Arcade (or Python) code.
Description: This 4-hour workshop goes beyond the basics of ESRI's Survey 123 and Field Maps to create customizable surveys with questions that auto-grab geospecific answers using Arcade, set up related features and tables, and use both Field Maps and Survey 123 in a single survey to get the best of both worlds.
Software/hardware: If you want to follow along, you will need a laptop (Apple or PC) and an ArcGIS Online account with at least a Contributor License (able to publish and host feature layers) and the ArcGIS Field Maps application.

Data Processing with Drones
Instructor: Allison Schumacher
Date: Tuesday July 7th, 2026
Experience level of participants: coming soon!
Description: This training will cover the general workflow for drone-based mapping using both photogrammetry and LiDAR. Participants will learn the basic principles of safe drone operation, mission planning, and data collection, including proper flight patterns and sensor setup. This workshop will walk through how raw drone data becomes usable maps and 3D models by showing the main processing steps in one or more mapping software programs.
Software/hardware: coming soon!
