Preface

The updated ArcPy and ArcGIS now cover three major Python modules for the automation of geospatial analysis and data administration. ArcPy, ArcREST, and the ArcGIS API for Python are all powerful Python libraries that allow GIS analysts and data scientists to script the processing and publication of location data. Using the power of programming with ArcGIS for Desktop, ArcGIS for Server, and ArcGIS Online has never been easier, or more important. With all new chapters and code, this book showcases how to use each module correctly to improve any geospatial workflow.
