1) What Coordinate System is my Data in?
- Learn how to determine the coordinate system of a layer
2) Projecting On-the-Fly
- Learn how ArcGIS Pro handles layers with different coordinate systems
3) Project Your Data
- Change the coordinate system of your layer
4) Calculating Population Density
- See the material impact of different projections
- Learn how to use Feature Datasets to manage projections
- Create a field and calculate population density
