More Python, Showing the Contents of a Project File Lesson (Module 8 of 9)

This video lesson, provided by the GeoTech Center, is from the eighth module of the Python and Geospatial Mapping course, titled More Python. The course is designed for experienced users of Global Information Systems (GIS) platforms who are new to programming, with the goal of teaching them how to use Python to automate processes through the construction of short scripts in ArcGIS Pro.

This lesson discusses using a Python script to view the contents of a project file within an integrated development environment (IDE) without opening the file in ArcGIS Pro. Vince DiNoto, director of the GeoTech Center, walks learners through an example script that lists maps found in the file, map layers, defined layers, size of layout, and different elements found in the layout.

The video runs 7:44 minutes in length. Additional resources from the Python and Geospatial Mapping course are available to view separately.
