Import and symbolize dataThe sections below include steps that may be required to import, convert, and symbolize data in your project. These steps
organize your data in a common format, helping to ensure success in subsequent workflows.
Connect to data sources and add data to a map
It is likely that your data comes from a variety of sources. The following steps outline how to connect to these data sources,
organize them, and add the data to the map. If you need to convert your data to feature classes, see the next section.
1. In the Catalog pane, right-click Folders to add a folder connection.
From here you can browse to the location of your source data.
2. If your source data is in a file geodatabase, right-click the geodatabase and add it to your project.
Note: Adding a geodatabase to your project does not change the location where the data is
stored. To do that, copy the feature classes from your source data to the default
geodatabase for the project.
3. To add your source data to the map, click and drag it directly from the catalog, or click Add Data and browse to the location
of your data.
Batch import data
It is common for data to be provided in formats such as KML, shapefiles, and text files. While these formats can be read
directly by ArcGIS Pro, to access full analysis and visualization functionality, these datasets must be converted to feature
classes. The Batch Import Data tool converts input data in these formats to a single file geodatabase and is included in ArcGIS
Pro for Intelligence.
Complete the following steps to convert a directory of KML, shapefiles, geoJSON, spreadsheets, and text files to feature
classes stored in a single file geodatabase:
1. On the Data tab, click Batch Import.
The Batch Import Data geoprocessing tool opens.
2. Set Input Data Directory to the root directory containing the files you want to convert to file geodatabase feature classes.
The Input Data Directory is recursively searched for the following types of files:
• .kml
• .kmz
• .shp
• .xls
• .xlsx
• .csv
• .txt
• .tab
• .geoJSON
ArcGIS Pro for Intelligence
Copyright © 1995-2019 Esri. All rights reserved. 12
• .gpx
Files of type .xls, .xlsx, .csv, .txt, and .tab must contain latitude and longitude columns with entries in decimal
degrees to convert to feature classes. The columns must be named one of the entries below.
• Latitude
▪ latitude
▪ lat
▪ y_coordinate
▪ y_coord
▪ y
• Longitude
▪ longitude
▪ long
▪ lon
▪ x_coordinate
▪ x_coord
▪ x
Note: For layers with source data that was originally in KML, KMZ, shapefile, or geoJSON file
format, symbology is extracted from a layer file (.lyrx or .lyr); otherwise, default
symbology is applied. The layer file must have the same base name and be located in
the same folder as the associated file. For .kml, .kmz, and .geoJSON files, an
additional underscore and the geometry type must be appended to the .lyr or .lyrx
file. Files of type .xls, .xlsx, .csv, .txt, and .tab will be converted with default
symbology.
3. Set Input File Geodatabase to the existing file geodatabase where the output feature classes will be stored.
4. Run the tool.
Note: You can also use the Table To Features menu to choose from a variety of tools that
convert tabular data with longitude/latitude coordinates to output feature classes.
The outputs are added as layers to the map within a group layer named Batch Import <timestamp>, where <timestamp> is
the time the tool was run.
Symbolize data from the Intel.stylx file
Browse the Intel.stylx file or use MIL-STD-2525B Change 2 Symbol ID Codes to symbolize your data.
The following steps outline how you can symbolize your data once you add it to the map.
1. In the Contents pane, select the feature layer with the symbology you want to change.
2. Open the Symbology pane, either from the Appearance ribbon or by right-clicking the feature layer in the Contents pane.
ArcGIS Pro for Intelligence
Copyright © 1995-2019 Esri. All rights reserved. 13
3. Set the symbology to Unique Values and click any symbol icon to access symbols from the Intel.stylx file.
The Format Point Symbol dialog box appears, displaying the Gallery.
4. Choose an appropriate symbol from the Gallery and do the same with each value in the feature layer.
5. To symbolize features based on their 2525 B Change 2 Symbol ID Codes (SIDC), switch the renderer to Dictionary in the
Symbology drop-down menu.
6. Choose MIL2525C_B2 from the Dictionary drop-down menu.
7. Under Symbology Fields, match the sidc Dictionary Field to the field in your layer that contains SIDCs.
The symbols will now render according to MIL-STD-2525B Change 2.
8. Under Text Fields, match the Unique Designation Dictionary Field to the field in your layer with text information, such as a
unit name.

Customize project templatesWhile ArcGIS Pro for Intelligence comes with domain-specific tasks, styles, and tools, you may want to create your own project
template, with maps, layers, and tools specific to your organization. You can configure ArcGIS Pro for Intelligence so your
customized project templates and background image appear on the start page.
Note: If you previously had ICAP installed and were using custom project templates or
background images in the start page, you will have to manually migrate that content
from the \Documents\ICAP\projecttemplates and \Documents\ICAP\
backgroundimage to either the \Documents\ArcGIS Pro for Intelligence\
projecttemplates and \Documents\ArcGIS Pro for Intelligence\
backgroundimage folders if ArcGIS Pro for Intelligence is installed Per User or to
C:\Program Files\ArcGIS\ArcGISProForIntelligence\
projecttemplates and C:\Program Files\ArcGIS\
ArcGISProForIntelligence\backgroundimage folders if ArcGIS Pro for
Intelligence is installed Per Machine. The Per Machine paths may be different
depending on where ArcGIS Pro for Intelligence is installed.

Create a project template
If you do not already have a project template, complete the following steps:
1. In ArcGIS Pro for Intelligence, in the Save As group on the Production tab, select Project Template.
The Create Project Template pane appears.
2. Choose Save Template to File, and provide information in Item Details for the project template.
3. When you have filled in the necessary parameters, click Analyze to check for errors.
4. If the pane validates without error, click Run to create the project template.
Add custom project templates to the ArcGIS Pro for Intelligence start page
To incorporate the created project templates, so they appear in the ArcGIS Pro for Intelligence start page, use the following
steps:
1. If ArcGIS Pro for Intelligence is installed Per Machine, browse to the install folder C:\Program Files\ArcGIS\
ArcGISProForIntelligence\projecttemplates; this path may be different depending on where ArcGIS Pro for
Intelligence is installed. If ArcGIS Pro for Intelligence is installed Per User, browse to folder \Documents\ArcGIS Pro
for Intelligence\projecttemplates located in your user profile.
2. Copy your project templates into this folder.
3. To replace the default icon that appears next to your project templates on the start page, copy a .png file into the same
folder.
For these files to appear, the icons must have the same names as the project template files, including the .aptx file
extension. For example, if your project template is named IntelTemplate.aptx, your icon must be named
IntelTemplate.aptx.png.
The optimal resolution for .png files is 32x32 pixels.
4. Close and restart ArcGIS Pro for Intelligence for the changes on the start page to take effect.
Your custom project templates appear with the default templates in the Project Template section of the start page.
Add a custom background to the ArcGIS Pro for Intelligence start page
One of the most impactful ways you can customize ArcGIS Pro for Intelligence is to change the startup screen's background
with one that represents your organization. This gives the end user a visual queue that they are working in an application built
with them in mind. Making a backgound for your organization is not difficult but does require a little planning, patience,
creativity, and a basic image editing application (like Microsoft Paint 3D or TechSmith SnagIt Editor). The general process is
outlined below, but depending on your skill and patience you can expand this to make something truly unique! To replace the
start page background, complete the following steps:
1. Determine the resolution of your target display.
For most current LCD displays you may see a recommended resolution of 1920 x 1080.
2. Create a new image in your image editing application, using a canvas size that matches the resolution of the target display.
3. Set a background color, insert your organization's logo, and add other sketches/drawings/elements to the image.

4. Save the image as a png (Portable Network Graphics) file in a local folder.
You will want to make a few images as samples to test the best placement of the elements in your image.
5. Choose one of the png files and rename it background.png.
6. If ArcGIS Pro for Intelligence is installed Per Machine, copy background.png into the folder C:\Program Files\
ArcGIS\ArcGISProForIntelligence\backgroundimage; this path may be different depending on where ArcGIS Pro
for Intelligence is installed. If ArcGIS Pro for Intelligence is installed Per User, copy background.png to the user profile
folder \Documents\ArcGIS Pro for Intelligence\backgroundimage.
7. Close and restart ArcGIS Pro for Intelligence for the changes on the start page to take effect.
The start page background reflects your changes once ArcGIS Pro for Intelligence loads.
• The chosen background image will stretch to fit the Startup Screen window. If you change the size of the window the image
will stretch to fit it, and may look "squished".
• The resolution of the chosen image will also impact how it looks on the display. Higher resolution (300 dpi) will look better
than lower resolution (96 dpi) especially on large displays.
• Logos will look best in the upper left or upper right corners of the image, as the project template and project carousel will
take up the middle of the image.
User override of Per Machine customization of ArcGIS Pro for Intelligence start page
When ArcGIS Pro for Intelligence is installed Per Machine, i.e. installed for all users on the machine to use, the custom
background image and project template files discussed in previous sections appear in the start page for all users on the
machine. However, there may be instances where an individual user would like to have a different background image or project
templates displayed on the start page then those displayed for all other users. To "override" the Per Machine customization,
follow the steps below.
1. Browse to the Documents folder in your user profile.
2. Within the Documents folder, create a folder named ArcGIS Pro for Intelligence.
3. Browse to the ArcGIS Pro for Intelligence folder.
4. Within the ArcGIS Pro for Intelligence folder, create a folder named backgroundimage and
projecttemplates.
5. Copy the background.png file that you want to use instead of the file installed to the Per Machine installation location, to
the \Documents\ArcGIS Pro for Intelligence\backgroundimage folder.
6. Copy the project template and project template icon files that you want to use instead of the files installed to the Per
Machine installation location, to the \Documents\ArcGIS Pro for Intelligence\projecttemplates folder.
7. Close and restart ArcGIS Pro for Intelligence for the changes on the start page to take effect.
In addition to customizing project templates, you can learn more about customizing the application itself by building your own
add-in.

What is a timelineA timeline is a way to visualize your data along a temporal axis. Timelines complement the spatial view of your data in the map
by showing where in time your data falls. By plotting your data along a timeline, you can understand the temporal order of your
data and discern temporal trends that emerge. When combined with time enabling your map and using the time slider, a
timeline gives a complete view of your temporal data and can enhance contextual understanding.
Data can be plotted on a timeline if time has been enabled on the layer in the Layer Properties dialog box. This data can have
either a single time stamp, in which case it appears as points along the timeline, or a start and an end time, in which case it
appears as a linear time span. Data that does not have a location assigned to it can also be plotted along a timeline. A timeline
can contain multiple layers from the same map, and unique values within a layer, allowing you to view multiple aspects of your
data along the same temporal axis. These layers can be viewed in the same horizontal lane, or in distinct lanes, giving you a
matrix by which you can compare features through both time and their category, or lane.

Create a Timeline
ArcGIS Pro for Intelligence
Copyright © 1995-2019 Esri. All rights reserved. 28
Create a timelineTo add a timeline to your ArcGIS Pro for Intelligence project, complete the following steps:
1. On the Analysis tab, click the Timeline button.
The Timeline and Timeline Properties panes open.
2. Ensure that the layers you want to add to the timeline are time enabled and in the same map.
a. Right-click each layer in the Contents pane and click Time Properties.
The Time tab of the Layer Properties dialog box appears.
b. Define either a single time field or two fields that represent start and end dates for each layer.
Learn more about supported time field formats in ArcGIS Pro for Intelligence.
Note: Timelines can visualize many layers at once, but all the layers must be in the same
map. The first layer you add to the timeline determines the map it references.
3. Add time-enabled data to your timeline.
a. In the Timeline Properties pane, click Add Layer, and use the resulting drop-down menu to add layers to the timeline.
b. Click Apply to see the full extent of your layers in the timeline.
Note: When layers are plotted on the timeline, the temporal extent of the timeline will
dynamically match the first and last time stamp from all layers. Additionally, layers
with a single time stamp will plot on the timeline as points, whereas layers with a start
and end time stamp will plot on the timeline as points with a horizontal bar that
represents the length of the time span.
Note: The symbology of points on the timeline matches that of the features on the map,
except in the case of graduated symbols, proportional symbols, and unclassed
colors, which are not supported.
4. Optionally configure ToolTips for your data on the timeline. In the Fields section of the Timeline Properties pane, choose a
field to display in a ToolTip for each layer on the timeline.
5. Repeat the steps above and click Apply to add more layers to your timeline.
Clicking Apply resets the timeline to the full extent of the layers.

Explore data in the timelineNavigate through the timeline
Once you create a timeline, you have multiple options, outlined below, for zooming in and out of different temporal extents.
• When you click Apply, the timeline shows the full extent of your data. The labels used for this full extent are dynamic and
depend on the temporal length between the first and last time stamp on the timeline. You can also click the Full Extent
button or the Full Extent option in the Time Scale drop-down menu to navigate to the full extent of your data.
• In addition to full extent, you can use the Time Scale drop-down menu on any timeline to view your data in fixed amounts of
time. For example, the Week view showcases one week on the timeline. When you choose a time scale from the drop-down
menu, the temporal extent will begin just before the first time stamp in your layer.
The time scale options are as follows:
• Minute
• Quarter-Hour
• Hour
• Day
• Week
• Month
• Year
• Decade
• Full Extent
• To zoom to a specific temporal subset of your current view, click the Zoom button on the Timeline toolbar. Then, click and
drag in the timeline to zoom to a specific extent. Time scale labels update dynamically as you zoom.
• If you have a scroll wheel on your mouse, you can use it to zoom in and out on the timeline. Unlike the Time Scale drop-
down menu, this function will zoom based on the location of the pointer. Time scale labels update dynamically as you zoom.
In addition to zooming in and out, you can also navigate horizontally along the timeline as follows:
• To pan horizontally on the timeline, click the Pan button on the Timeline toolbar. Then, click and drag to the left or the right in
the Timeline pane to pan forward or backward in time.
• If data exists beyond the current extent of the timeline, use the Previous Feature and Next Feature buttons to skip to the
time stamps of these features. These buttons are located on the toolbar in each timeline.
Investigate data in the timeline
In addition to navigation, you can investigate details and query features in your timeline using the following controls:
• Click the Select button on the Timeline toolbar to select features in the timeline. Click and drag the pointer to select features.
The selection is dynamic across all views of your data in your project. From a selection, you can click the Zoom to
Selection button to zoom the timeline to the selected extent.
• Click the Clear Selection button on the Timeline toolbar to clear any current selection in your project.
• When you click the Pan button, you can click any feature in your timeline to view the pop-up for that feature.
ArcGIS Pro for Intelligence

Learn more about configuring pop-ups
• Hover the pointer over a feature in the timeline to view the tooltip for that feature. This can be configured in the Timeline
Properties pane.
Note: Timelines honor any active definition queries set for a layer.
Expand and collapse lanes
Timelines provide an alternate mode where you can expand the timeline into multiple horizontal lanes that are stacked on top
of each other. Features are split into different lanes in a variety of ways. First, features are split into lanes based on their layer.
Additionally, you have the option to create lanes that are based on unique values in the field of a layer. Follow the steps below
to split your timeline into multiple lanes.
• Click the Enable Lanes button on the Timeline toolbar to split features into layer-based lanes. Click and drag the pointer to
select features. The selection is dynamic across all views of your data in your project.
• Click the Properties button on the Timeline toolbar to open the Timeline Properties pane.
• In the Fields section, choose a category field, which will create a new lane based on that field in a layer.
• Click Apply to update the timeline.

Timelines and the time sliderTimelines and the time slider both deal with temporal aspects of data, and these components complement each other in
ArcGIS Pro for Intelligence.
The time slider appears whenever a layer in a map is time-enabled. You can time enable a layer on the Layer Properties
dialog box. The time slider allows you to animate the map over time as the time slider progresses. When you animate the map
through the time slider, you are applying a temporal filter to your data on the map. Additionally, when you time enable your
data, a contextual Time tab appears, where you can set various parameters pertaining to the time slider.
To use time-enabled data with a timeline, you need to create a timeline and choose the layers you want visualized on it. The
time slider is a dynamic tool in a map, while a timeline is a stand-alone project item that you can share with others in your
organization. Filtering a map using the time slider and filtering a timeline are two distinct processes.
To perform other types of filters on data in a timeline, you can use a definition query, accessible on the Layer Properties
dialog box.
Note: Definition queries impact the visibility of your data across all views, not just the timeline.

Link Charts
ArcGIS Pro for Intelligence
Copyright © 1995-2019 Esri. All rights reserved. 37
What is a link chartDefining a Link Chart
A link chart is a way to visualize relationships between entities in your data, and is a complementary view to the map. In
ArcGIS Pro for Intelligence, a link chart contains two main components: nodes and links. Nodes, which can be visualized as
boxes with a symbol and a label inside, represent entities, any person, place, or thing. In the data, you can think of these
entities as a row in a table. These entities have traditionally been displayed as point features on a map in ArcGIS. You can add
collections of nodes into a link chart by adding one or more layers (which are listed in the Contents pane) to the chart as a
Node Set. Links, on the other hand, are the lines that connect nodes in the chart. If a link connects two nodes, it is assumed
that these nodes have a relationship of some kind. You can add a Link Set to automatically load links that match nodes
together. You can also draw links manually between nodes.
One or Many Layers
There are scenarios in which you would only want to use one layer to create a link chart. For example, if you want to create a
link chart to represent the hierarchy of one organization, you may only need to add the node set from that one layer, and
reference links in the data between individual entities. Conversely, you may be creating a link chart to represent relationships
between two organizations sourced in different layers. In this case, you would multiple node sets, one per layer, and reference
links in the data across both layers. It may be that your data is incomplete, so once you have nodes loaded into a chart, you
can manually draw new links in a link set between any two nodes.
Duplicate Names
It may be that you know your data contains a list of uniquely named entities. However, there may be cases where distinct
entities share the same exact name, or when your data contains the same entity listed multiple times in error. For example, I
may have data where two records list John Smith as feature nodes. This could be two unique entities with the same name, or
the entries could be duplicates in the data. By default, link charts treat these nodes as unique entities, but you have the option
to collapse them if you know they are duplicate.
Link Direction
By default, links that are created simply infer a relationship between the two nodes that they connect. However, you have the
ability to enable the direction of the link, which will be rendered as an arrowhead pointing to the target node. For example, if
you know that one entity reports to, transfers to, sold to, went to, a particular person, place, or thing in the target node, you can
apply the direction to the link.

Define Node SetThe following steps go over how to create a new link chart, and add node sets to that chart.
1. In the Analysis tab, click the Link Chart button.
The Link Chart window and Link Chart Properties pane appear. Additionally, the chart is listed in the Catalog pane.
2. Optionally rename the link chart in the Catalog pane.
3. Click the Create New Node Set button to add your first set of nodes.
A collection of parameters appear in the properties pane.
4. Type a name for your node set in the Node Set Name parameter.
5. Choose a layer from the Input Layer drop-down menu.
6. Choose a field for the Node Field parameter. This field should represent a list of entities that will be rendered by default as
individual nodes on the chart.
7. Optionally, chose a label field to represent the labels for each feature node. If you leave this field blank, the text in the field
defined in the Node Field parameter will label each node.
8. Optionally, check the Visually Collapse Duplicate Nodes checkbox. If checked, all duplicate entries in the Node Field
field will render as one node.
9. Once you have entered all the required parameters, click Save and Close and then Apply to load the nodes on to the
chart.
Individual Nodes will load in the link chart. The symbology of the nodes will be based on the symbology of the source layer.
You can override these settings in the Symbology section of the properties pane.
Note: Edits to the link chart data sources, such as adding new features, updating feature
attributes, or deleting features are not automatically synced to the link chart; you must
click Apply on the Link Chart Properties pane or the Refresh button located in the
link chart view pane to sync these edits. The time the link chart has been last synced
is displayed in the Current as of label in the link chart view pane.
10. Optionally, continue adding more collections of nodes by clicking the Create New Node Set button and repeating the above
steps. You can add as many node sets as you want, so long as they are all sourced from layers in the same map. For
example, you can have a link chart that contains node sets from multiple layers, and node sets from the same layer with
different fields defining the feature nodes.
11. Optionally, if you want to edit the parameters of any existing node collection, click the Edit Node Set button on any node
set to activate the parameters. Make your changes, click Save and Close, and click Apply to update the chart.
Node Symbology
By default, nodes are symbolized with the same symbology as their corresponding features. The following section outlines how
to override this setting for node sets.
1. In the Nodes tab of the Link Chart Properties pane, click on any node set and click the Symbology icon.
The Symbology view opens for the node set.
ArcGIS Pro for Intelligence
Copyright © 1995-2019 Esri. All rights reserved. 40
2. In the drop-down menu, choose Single Symbology.
To go back to using map symbology, choose Map Symbology in the drop-down menu.
3. Click on the icon next to the Symbol parameter to activate the symbol gallery, and choose a symbol for the nodes in the
link chart.
The symbol gallery will show all point symbols from all the styles in a project. If you want to use custom symbology for
nodes in the link chart, add those symbols to a new style in the project.
4. To edit the properties of the symbol, click again on the symbol and choose the Properties tab. From here, you can edit the
properties of the symbol.
5. To edit the properties of you label, expand the Node Label section of the properties pane.
6. By default, the node frame is displayed for all nodes. You can turn this off in the Node Frame section.
7. Click Save and Close and Apply to save your changes.

Define link setAs you load node sets in the link chart window, you can manually add links between nodes. Alternatively, you can auto-
populate your chart with links by defining link sources using the Links tab of the Link Chart Properties pane. The following
sections outline these two options.
Define Link Sources
1. To auto-populate links in the chart, click the Links tab in the Link Chart Properties pane.
You must already have defined at least one node set in the Nodes tab.
2. Click the Create New Link Set button to add your first link set.
A collection of parameters appears in the properties pane.
3. Type a name for your link set in the Link Set Name parameter.
4. Choose a node set in the Source Node drop-down menu. This list is generated from the list of node sets in the Nodes tab.
5. Choose a node set in the Target Node drop-down menu.
This can either be the same or a different node set than the Source Node parameter. If it is the same, make sure you
choose a different field for the following Field parameter.
6. Expand the Key Fields section and choose a field from the source node set in the Source Key Field parameter.
7. Choose a field from the target node set in the Target Key Field parameter. In order for links to render, the entries in the two
field parameters should map to each other.
8. By default, all links that are auto-generated are rendered as simple lines. You can override the default symbology settings
of the links by clicking on the Symbology icon after you save and close.
9. Once you have entered all the required parameters, click Save and Close and then Apply to load the links on to the chart.
Links between nodes will load in the link chart. You can edit the symbology of the links in the Symbology tab.
Note: Edits to the link chart data sources, such as adding new features, updating feature
attributes, or deleting features are not automatically synced to the link chart; you must
click Apply on the Link Chart Properties pane or the Refresh button located in the
link chart view pane to sync these edits. The time the link chart has been last synced
is displayed in the Current as of label in the link chart view pane.
10. Optionally, continue adding more link sets by clicking the Create New Link Set button and repeating the above steps. You
can add as many link sets as you want, just make sure that the data in the field parameters for each collection of links
match up with each other.
11. Optionally, if you want to edit the parameters of any existing node collection, click the Edit Link Set button on any node set
to activate the parameters. Make your changes, click Save and Close, and click Apply to update the chart.
Draw Links
1. To manually draw links between feature nodes in the link chart window, choose the Draw Links button in the Nodes and
Links group in the Link Chart tab of the ribbon. Note that you need to choose an existing link set from the drop down menu
for which these links will be added.
ArcGIS Pro for Intelligence
Copyright © 1995-2019 Esri. All rights reserved. 42
Note: It is possible to add a Link Set without key fields. The new Link Set will be empty but
ready for new links to be added.
2. In the link chart view, select a node in the link chart and drag your cursor to another node to draw a link. Continue as
necessary.
Add Link Labels
You can add labels to links by following the below steps:
1. Click on the Select tool in the Link Chart tab and then double-click on the link that you would like to label.
A cursor is activated where you can type text along the link.
2. Type a label for the link and repeat these steps as needed.
Link Symbology
By default, links are drawn as solid gray lines with arrowheads pointing at the target nodes. To change any of the link
symbology properties, follow the steps described below:
1. In the Links tab of the Link Chart Properties pane, click the Symbology button for the link set you want to edit.
The Link Symbology pane opens for the link set.
2. This is where you can edit the Color, Line Width, Dash Effect, and Enable Arrowheads To Target Nodes properties for
all links.
3. Edit the properties of your link labels in the Link Label section. Link labels are displayed by default.
4. Click Save and Close and Apply to save your changes.

Visualize the Link ChartOnce you create a link chart, there are a variety of ways to arrange the nodes and links. First, you can select and move nodes
and groups of nodes in the Link Chart window. You can also use the Change Layout drop-down menu in the link chart, to
control specific formats that the link chart can take. The default option is to arrange links in a Clustered format, which is useful
for illustrating generic relationships between entities. However, you can also choose from the following format options:
• Circular—Illustrates relationships in a circle.
• Hierarchy—Illustrates hierarchical relationships from top to bottom.
• Organic—Simple view of relationship visualization.
• Radial- Illustrates relationships in a curved hierarchy.
Many of these formats may be effective in illustrating relationships in your data, or one format may be the best choice. Finally,
you can use the Collapse Ends and Expand Ends tools to remove and add peripheral nodes, one level at a time. All of the
actions described above in this topic will persist as long as you keep the pane open. To close the link chart while persisting the
layout, use the Lock tool.

Conditions and Alerts
ArcGIS Pro for Intelligence
Copyright © 1995-2019 Esri. All rights reserved. 53
Introduction to conditionsIntelligence analysts often need to understand the spatial relationships between activities and key locations. These activities or
incidents can represent a wide variety of phenomena, and key locations can represent coordinate locations, or lines or areas of
interest. ArcGIS Pro for Intelligence includes a set of spatial queries that can help you understand these relationships. These
queries can be turned into conditions, which persist with parameters specific to a certain data set. When you create conditions
from these spatial queries, you can access them from a single location, the Conditions tab in the Alerts pane, and run them
repeatedly.
When your data meets the parameters you set for a condition, you will receive an alert. This alert displays in two places. First,
you'll receive a message. This message appears as long as ArcGIS Pro for Intelligence is running; you do not have to actively
be working on it. Second, in the Alerts pane, a record (or records in the case of Point to Point) of the alert appears in a list.
You can review this alert to view the time stamp, pan, zoom, and select records in your data that triggered the alert.
Conditions vs. geoprocessing tools
Spatial queries, such as the conditions available in ArcGIS Pro for Intelligence, also exist in ArcGIS as geoprocessing tools.
However, setting conditions centralizes these queries in one location. Additionally, the parameters you set persist, so the
conditions can be run multiple times. Finally, with conditions, you receive a notification when your data satisfies a spatial query.
Recurrence
Analysts often work with data that may frequently change over time. This data may update manually or automatically. To
understand the data as it changes, you may want to query it multiple times. In ArcGIS Pro for Intelligence, you can schedule a
recurrence for one or many conditions. For example, you can set conditions to run once per hour, day, or week. This allows
you to transition to other work knowing that your data is queried on a regular basis.

Create a conditionYou can create a condition and run it, and optionally set a recurrence.
Create a condition and run it
To create a condition and run it, complete the following steps:
1. Click Alerts on the Data tab.
The Alerts pane appears.
2. On the Conditions tab, click Create New, and choose a preconfigured condition.
The condition appears on the Conditions tab in the Alerts pane.
3. Provide a name and parameters for the condition. When choosing input feature parameters, do one of the following:
• Click the drop-down arrow in the input box to choose a layer in the Contents pane.
• Browse to the source feature class
Mandatory parameters include an input feature layer and a distance measurement and unit. Optional parameters include
the query builder, where you can specify the condition to search through subsets of your layers.
Note: At this time, feature services must be added to conditions as feature layers; you cannot
browse to the source service layer.
4. To manually run conditions when you are ready, select one or more conditions and click Run Conditions.
Set a recurrence
You can set a recurrence to automatically run the condition at specified dates and times.
1. On the Recurrence tab in the Alerts pane, click New.
2. Provide the start and end date and time parameters.
For example, from October 1 at 10:00 am to November 1 at 21:00.
3. Choose the conditions you want to include in the recurrence from the drop-down menu.
4. Optionally rename the recurrence.
5. Turn on the recurrence.
The specified conditions will begin running on a recurrence.
Note: When you open a project that contains an enabled recurrence, the recurrence will
begin to run from the time the project was opened.

Recieve Alerts
ArcGIS Pro for Intelligence
Copyright © 1995-2019 Esri. All rights reserved. 58
Analyze alertsWhen you run conditions, either manually or through a recurrence, you'll receive an alert if your data satisfies one of the
following conditions:
• If a condition cannot be successfully run, an error message appears.
• If a condition triggers an alert, the alert appears in a message.
• If a condition runs successfully and does not trigger an alert, no alert occurs.
Once alerts have been triggered, you can explore the features that triggered alerts.
1. On the Alerts tab in the Alerts pane, double click an alert and pan and zoom the map to the extent of the features that
triggered the alert.
Those features also flash on the map.
2. Optionally right-click an alert and click Select to select the features that triggered the alert on the map.
3. Optionally right-click an alert and click Attributes to open the Attributes pane.
The Point to Point condition may return multiple alerts each time it is run. If an alert is triggered more than once, a new
alert will not appear in the Alerts pane. Rather, a number will appear on the existing alert indicating the number of times the
alert was triggered.

Adding Additional Functionality to ArcGIS Pro for IntelligenceIntroduction
This topic describes how to add additional functionality to ArcGIS Pro for Intelligence by creating new Add-Ins.
The two use cases described are:
1. Add Functionality to the Add-In tab
2. Add Functionality to a new tab
In all of these cases, you will start with a new Visual Studio Project created from the ArcGIS Pro Module Add-in template. See
Build your first add-in for a tutorial on how to create an ArcGIS Pro addin. For information on how to install or upgrade the
ArcGIS Pro SDK for .NET see ProGuide Installation and Upgrade.
For the use cases described in this topic, I've created a new Visual Studio Project based on the ArcGIS Pro Module Add-in
template and named the project and solution MyAddin and have added an ArcGIS Pro Button named Button 1 with
id="MyAddin_Button 1".
ArcGIS Pro for Intelligence
Copyright © 1995-2019 Esri. All rights reserved. 75
Note: Id's across all daml files must be unique. To obtain a daml that references everything in
ArcGIS Pro and the ArcGIS Pro for Intelligence configuration, edit the shortcut that
opens ArcGIS Pro for Intelligence and on the target property append
/dumpcombineddaml. The target should look like the following:
"C:\Program Files\ArcGIS\Pro\bin\ArcGISPro.exe"
/config:ArcGISProForIntelligenceConfiguration /dumpcombineddaml
Double-click the shortcut and when ArcGIS Pro for Intelligence opens, a text editor with
the combined daml will display. Save this file and refer to this document when assigning
the id value of elements within your daml.
Shown below is the Config.daml file for this ArcGIS Pro Module Addin. For clarity, non-
essential information has been replace with ellipsis (…) and comments have been
removed:
<ArcGIS defaultAssembly="MyAddin.dll"defaultNamespace="MyAddin" … >
<AddInInfo id="{cab713e1-ded9-4fc5-8354-5ca4898f0e8f}"version="1.0" desktopVersion="2.2.12813">
<Name>MyAddin</Name>…
</AddInInfo><modules>
<insertModule id="MyAddin_Module" className="Module1"autoLoad="false" caption="Module1">
<tabs></tabs><groups>
<group id="MyAddin_Group1" caption="Group 1"appearsOnAddInTab="true">
<button refID="MyAddin_Button1" size="large" /></group>
</groups><controls>
<button id="MyAddin_Button1" caption="Button 1"className="Button1" loadOnClick="true" smallImage="Images\GenericButtonBlue16.png" largeImage="Images\GenericButtonBlue32.png">
<tooltip heading="Tooltip Heading">Tooltiptext<disabledText /></tooltip>
</button></controls>
</insertModule></modules>
</ArcGIS>
Add Functionality to the Add-In tab
The simplest way to add functionality to the ArcGIS Pro for Intelligence Configuration is to add your functionality to the Add-In
tab, which only requires you to set the appearsOnAddInTab attribute to true on the <group> tag containing the control or
controls you want to appear in the Add-In tab, as shown in the following Config.daml snippet:
<group id="MyAddin_Group1" caption="Group 1" appearsOnAddInTab="true"><button refID="MyAddin_Button1" size="large" />
</group>
ArcGIS Pro for Intelligence
Copyright © 1995-2019 Esri. All rights reserved. 76
Save and build the solution. The Button 1 control displays on the Add-In tab along with all other ArcGIS Pro for Intelligence
ribbons in the ArcGIS Pro for Intelligence configuration.
Add Functionality to a new tab
To add functionality to a new ribbon that will appear in the ArcGIS Pro for Intelligence configuration you need to do the
following within your addin Config.daml file:
1. Set a dependency on the ArcGIS Pro for Intelligence Configuration Add-In by referencing its AddInInfo GUID Value, in this
example {43ea84e4-7b44-4d76-80ba-44095ba768b4}, in the Dependencies section of your Config.daml file as
shown below:
</AddInInfo><dependencies>
<dependency name="{43ea84e4-7b44-4d76-80ba-44095ba768b4}" /></dependencies>
2. Add a new tab to your addin where the id value starts with ArcGISProForIntelligenceConfiguration and is unique
across all addins. In the following snippet, I'm defining a new custom tab with an id of
ArcGISProForIntelligenceConfiguration_NewTab:
<tabs><tab id="ArcGISProForIntelligenceConfiguration_NewTab" caption="New Tab"></tab>
</tabs>
Note: As defined above, the tab will be inserted as the first tab. Use the insert and
placeWith attributes to define the specific location to place the tab.
3. Add the group(s) that you would like to appear in this tab. In the following snippet, I'm adding the MyAddin_Group1, which
references the button MyAddin_Button1:
<tab id="ArcGISProForIntelligenceConfiguration_NewTab" caption="New Tab"><group refID="MyAddin_Group1"/>
</tab>
4. Set the appearsOnAddinTab attribute value on the group(s) you are including in the custom tab to false.
<group id="MyAddin_Group1" caption="Group 1" appearsOnAddInTab="false"><button refID="MyAddin_Button1" size="large" />
</group>
Note: If you don't set this attribute to false on all the groups referenced within this new tab,
the "Add-In" tab will still be created in addition to your custom tab.
Save and build the solution. The Button 1 control displays on the New Tab tab along with all other ArcGIS Pro for Intelligence
tabs in the ArcGIS Pro for Intelligence configuration.
