Course details
This comprehensive course introduces you to the powerful integration of artificial intelligence and Geographic Information Systems through ArcGIS Pro and Survey123. Explore how generative and semantic AI tools can revolutionize spatial analysis, from automated feature extraction to intelligent survey creation. Learn through hands-on exercises and real-world applications how to leverage pre-built AI models for imagery analysis and create custom deep learning models tailored to their specific geographic challenges. The course culminates with advanced techniques for building smart data collection tools that combine AI-powered object detection with field survey capabilities.
Learning objectives
Analyze the requirements and constraints for implementing GeoAI solutions in ArcGIS Pro, including hardware specifications, software configurations, and model selection criteria.
Apply pre-built AI models to extract geographic features (buildings, vehicles, trees, roads, parking lots) from satellite and aerial imagery using ArcGIS Pro's deep learning tools.
Create custom deep learning models using AutoDL training tools, including data labeling, model training, and result validation for specific geographic object detection tasks.
Synthesize AI-powered survey solutions by integrating deep learning models with ArcGIS Survey123 Connect to build intelligent field data collection applications.
Evaluate the accuracy and effectiveness of AI model results and customize parameters to optimize performance for specific geographic analysis scenarios.
