Info

Creating a new map Maps are the primary way to visualize data in a geographical information system (GIS). With each project, there may be a need to have multiple maps. You may need a map that shows the general location of the project in relation to a larger area. For example, you may be working on a project to determine the location of a new water reservoir. You need to show the location of the proposed new reservoir within your county or city, so others can know where it will be generally located. Although this map is good at showing where the reservoir is located, it is at a scale that would make it hard to see the level of detail that might be needed by an engineer, planner, or surveyor. So, you might need another map that focuses on the site of the new reservoir, which shows its boundary, the parcel or parcels of land it is on, the elevation contours for the site, and so on. To keep from making a single map too cluttered, you might actually need to create multiple maps that focus on one or two primary layers. Remember that a map should have a specific purpose. All layers within maps should support that purpose. It is possible to have too much information. So, how do you create new maps within ArcGIS Pro? One way is using the INSERT tab on the ribbon. From there, you can choose the New Map button as shown in the following screenshot: Another way is to right-click on the Maps folder within the Project Pane and select New Map, as shown in the following screenshot:
Another way is to import an existing map. ArcGIS Pro allows you to import maps from map documents, map packages, and map files. Each of these has unique file extensions, as shown in the following table: Item File extension Software used to create Map document MXD ArcMap Map packages MPK or MPKX ArcMap, ArcCatalog, or ArcGIS Pro Map files MAPX ArcGIS Pro When you import an existing map from one of these files, the new map it creates in your project will contain the layers along with all of their settings, such as symbology and labels, that were in the map you imported. This provides a way to help populate a new project with items quickly, so you can get to work faster. This is especially true for those that are migrating to ArcGIS Pro from ArcGIS for Desktop.
