Geographic Information Science (GIS) and Mapping

Looking for some fun, easy tutorials to practice design in ArcGIS Pro? Check out John Nelson maps!

Some of the tutorials are a little more complex than others - but all of the steps are shown on how to setup the maps. The videos are easy to pause and rewind.

For any tech issues while working on projects feel free to contact Sara Lynnore (sara@stolaf.ed) directly. My working hours are:

• Monday - Thursday: 8am - 5pm
• Friday (remote): 8am - 5pm

I typically do not work on the weekends or after 5pm - but I will usually follow up my next working day! To book an appointment, contact me by email and we can work something out - my schedule can sometimes be different every week.

If I am out of the office, send in a Software Issue ticket to the IT Helpdesk.

For accessing ArcGIS Pro while the academic buildings are open:

• RNS 400 - if the door is locked during building hours, I would recommend stopping by the Biology Department (RNS 260) to see if they have a key. Sometimes Facilities can also unlock the door.
• DiSCO - all of the Windows machines have ArcGIS Pro installed

For accessing ArcGIS Pro after hours:

• DiSCO - The computers in the DiSCO are available until Rolvaag Memorial Library is closed (12am)

DiSCO is typically staffed:

• Monday - Thursday: 9am - 9pm
• Friday: 9am - 5pm
• Saturday & Sunday: 12pm - 9pm

Even if the DiSCO is not staffed, you can still work in the DiSCO Computers (Rolvaag is open until 12am) - however the spaces (The Set, AVs rooms, classroom) are locked at 9pm. Computers in the main area of the DiSCO are still available.
