I realised today that I am now favouring ArcGIS Pro over ArcMap for desktop GIS tasks such as creating and editing data. As the release approaches there are an increasing range of resources available to help you get to grips with it, if you haven't already.

ArcGIS 10.3 has arrived and brings with it a host of new features, enhancements and some new apps. This summary will give you a flavour of what's new and includes links to further details on each item.

The pre-release version of ArcGIS Pro is now available on My Esri. I was up and running in less than an hour and have pulled together the information you'll need.

ArcGIS Pro is the latest addition to the ArcGIS for Desktop product family. It is a new application and is due for release later this year as part of ArcGIS 10.3. Esri UK would like to invite our current ArcGIS for Desktop customers to download ArcGIS Pro and participate in its beta program.
