ArcGIS Pro is a desktop geographic information system (GIS) that can be used to analyze data and create data visualizations in the form of maps, 3d scenes, and more. Content created in ArcGIS Pro can be published to ArcGIS Online, integrated into other Esri apps, etc.
Go to Software Installation for instructions on how to install ArcGIS Pro on your computer. Contact the ITS Help Desk if you have questions or need help installing ArcGIS Pro.
Current Brandeis students, faculty, and staff can access ArcGIS Pro via Amazon AppStream. This is the recommended method for any Mac user or individual who can't install ArcGIS Pro on their personal computer.
Contact the Brandeis ITS Clusters team (clusters@brandeis.edu) if you need an Amazon AppStream account. Once you've been provisioned an AppStream account, you can sign into AppStream with your Brandeis credentials, then click the ArcGIS Pro icon to launch ArcGIS Pro.
ArcGIS Pro is installed on the desktop PCs in the Goldfarb 230 classroom and the Digital Scholarship Lab (Goldfarb Library, Mezzanine Level).
Goldfarb 230 is an open lab and is available for use whenever classes aren't scheduled in the room. Brandeis Library's Digital Scholarship Lab provides in-person and remote access to current Brandeis community members. The Digital Scholarship Lab is intended for academic use only and users must attend a Digital Scholarship Lab training before gaining access to the lab.
ArcGIS Pro is also available on our library's Mac computers if you have an Amazon AppStream account (free to current Brandeis students / faculty / staff). We highly recommend requesting an AppStream account if you don't have a PC computer with the appropriate specs to run ArcGIS Pro.
Make sure you sign out of ArcGIS Pro once you are finished using the software to ensure that other users don't have accidental access to your ArcGIS account.
