Python is a free, easy-to-learn, powerful programming language. It is widely used for applications such as web development, database management, software development, and for our purposes, geoprocessing. Python was introduced into ArcMap version 9.0 and has since been the standard for geoprocessing scripting, primarily through a library called “ArcPy,” which enables Python to work within ArcGIS Pro. In this tutorial, we will go over how to get started by running a script that counts the number of grocery stores within cities. Visit www.python.org to learn more about the Python language.
