New version of ArcGIS Pro – Feb 2023

A large amount of the new and improved tools in this release have come directly via requests from the professional GIS user community and are intended to make your workflows come together in better harmony.
Easier access to documentation and resources from within the software will help you stay focused on your work while learning new skills and discovering new features.
