ArcGIS Pro 2.x Cookbook. Create, manage, and share geographic maps, data, and analytical models using ArcGIS Pro

Tripp Corbin

ArcGIS is Esri's catalog of GIS applications with powerful tools for visualizing, maintaining, and analyzing data. ArcGIS makes use of the modern ribbon interface and 64-bit processing to increase the speed and efficiency of using GIS. It allows users to create amazing maps in both 2D and 3D quickly and easily. If you want to gain a thorough understanding of the various data formats that can be used in ArcGIS Pro and shared via ArcGIS Online, then this book is for you. Beginning with a refresher on ArcGIS Pro and how to work with projects, this book will quickly take you through recipes about using various data formats supported by the tool. You will learn the limits of each format, such as Shapefiles, Geodatabase, and CAD files, and learn how to link tables from outside sources to existing GIS data to expand the amount of data that can be used in ArcGIS. You'll learn methods for editing 2D and 3D data using ArcGIS Pro and how topology can be used to ensure data integrity. Lastly the book will show you how data and maps can be shared via ArcGIS Online and used with web and mobile applications.

Architektura aplikacji w Pythonie. TDD, DDD i rozwój mikrousług reaktywnych

Harry Percival, Bob Gregory

Architektura aplikacji w Pythonie. TDD, DDD i rozwój mikrousług reaktywnych Python zyskuje coraz większą popularność i jest wykorzystywany do tworzenia bardzo różnych aplikacji, jednak projektowanie dużych, niezawodnych systemów w tym języku bywa wyzwaniem. Rozwijanie złożonych systemów o wysokiej jakości wymaga zastosowania odpowiedniej architektury. Trudno w Pythonie stosować takie wysokopoziomowe wzorce projektowe jak architektura sześciokątna, architektura oparta na zdarzeniach czy wzorce zalecane dla projektowania dziedzinowego (DDD). Sytuacji nie poprawia również to, że klasyczna literatura dotycząca metod zarządzania złożonością aplikacji zawiera przykłady kodu napisanego w Javie lub C#. Programiści Pythona często więc uznają takie książki za mało przydatne w swojej pracy. Ten praktyczny przewodnik przybliży projektantom pracującym w Pythonie sprawdzone wzorce architektury, które ułatwiają zapanowanie nad złożonością aplikacji i pozwalają najlepiej wykorzystać zestawy testów. Prezentację poszczególnych wzorców architektury oparto na przykładowej, stopniowo rozbudowywanej aplikacji. Podejście to pozwoliło na pokazanie zalet metodyki TDD. Z kolei w rozdziałach poświęconych modelowaniu dziedzinowemu zwrócono uwagę na unikanie jakichkolwiek zależności zewnętrznych przy równoczesnym zapewnieniu integralności danych. Wśród ciekawszych koncepcji warto wskazać wykorzystywanie zdarzeń w roli wzorca integracji usług w architekturze mikrousługowej. Niejako przy okazji zaprezentowano praktyczne strony stosowania kilku frameworków i technologii Pythona, między innymi Flask, SQLAlchemy, pytest, Docker i Redis. W tej książce między innymi: modelowanie dziedzinowe i stosowanie wzorców DDD jednostki, obiekty wartości i agregaty w architekturze domenowej tworzenie modeli bez zbędnych zależności zdarzenia, polecenia i szyna wiadomości wzorce architektury zdarzeniowej i mikrousług reaktywnych Architektura nowoczesnych aplikacji w Pythonie: rozwiązania dla poważnych systemów!
