ArcGIS Pro is desktopGIS software developed by Esri, which replaces their ArcMap software generation.[1] The product was announced as part of Esri's ArcGIS 10.3 release,[2] ArcGIS Pro is notable in having a 64 bit architecture, combined 2-D, 3-D support, ArcGIS Online integration and Python 3 support.[3]
A major version update occurred with the release of ArcGIS Pro 3.0 in June 2022. Several major changes include: the dropping of support for geocoders created with ArcMap 10.x and versions of ArcGIS Pro 2.9.x and earlier; project files created or modified with ArcGIS Pro 3.0 are not readable by versions 2.9.x and earlier; geodatabases created in 3.0 may not be fully compatible with prior versions; and perhaps most significantly, Parcel Fabric datasets created in prior versions must be upgraded to be fully compatible in version 3.0.[4]
