Insights for Arcgis: an Introduction
Insights for ArcGIS: An Introduction
Insights for ArcGIS is available as part of ArcGIS Enterprise and Online and provides a new user experience for analysis that focuses on simpler ways to work with your data and share results. This includes visualization, drag and drop analytics, and on-the-fly filtering and aggregations making interactive and exploratory analysis fast and intuitive. You will learn how to get started with Insights for ArcGIS, including adding data from numerous sources, exploring some of the available analyses, and seeing how to share results and models, as we work through some analysis examples.

Data Stores & Applications Perform Analysis – Basic to Advanced Data & Analysis Results Business Data and Spatial Data Together in One Place
Business Data Spatial Data Statistical Analysis Exploratory Analysis • Descriptive stats Spatial Analysis • How is it distributed? • Charts, tables, and maps • Regression • How is it related? • Interactivity between visualizations • Link analysis • What’s nearby? • Context of the largest digital atlas in world • How has it changed?
GeoEnablement Record & Repeat Analysis • Geocode address • Share model to analysts • Convert X,Y • Document best practices • Join to boundaries • Re-run with new data • Enrich proportionally with demographic variables
Share Results • Share with executives Data Preparation • Tell your story • Format fields • Share with public • Calculate new fields • Filter data • Hide fields • Rename fields and datasets • Join datasets Insights is analysis first, reporting second
• Analysis finds answers • Dashboards present answers • A process or procedure that • A visualization or interaction that creates new information communicates information • Derivative data available for re-use • Data remains within the visualization in other systems
Analysis creates new data and information, and finds answers.. Dashboards present the answers to others. Workbook

Data Table Summary Table
• The entire dataset • Extracts significance from detailed dataset
• Calc new fields • Pivot, and show descriptive statistics
• Not part of a shared page • Interactive with chart and map cards
• Included with a shared page Demo Mapping & Charting Analysis Powerful analysis made simple
Exploratory Spatial Statistical
• Find the right questions to ask • Relate and overlay datasets • Quantify and describe The Action Button Spatial Analysis Techniques Statistical Analysis Techniques Link maps (aka graph analysis)
• Spider lines/Desire lines - A desire line map shows straight lines connecting the origins and the destinations - Shows the shortest line between origin and destination
• Flow maps - Shows movement of people, goods, transport etc. - Displays direction of movement and can also show volume Python & R Integration
