ArcGIS Overview

End-to-end workflows for integrating GeoDin geotechnical data with ArcGIS Pro and ArcGIS Online

GeoDin integrates with ArcGIS Pro and ArcGIS Online through Excel-based data exchange. This section covers the complete workflow from planning borehole locations in ArcGIS, through data collection and report generation in GeoDin, to publishing results back to ArcGIS Online.

Workflow overview

The integration follows a five-step sequence:

Step	Direction	What happens
1. Plan and export to GeoDin	ArcGIS Pro to GeoDin	Create borehole locations in ArcGIS Pro, export as Excel, import into GeoDin
2. Export to ArcGIS Pro	GeoDin to ArcGIS Pro	After field data collection, export enriched data back to ArcGIS as feature classes
3. Generate reports	GeoDin	Generate borehole log and CPT reports, export as PDF per object
4. Attach reports to features	ArcGIS Pro	Attach GeoDin PDF reports to the corresponding ArcGIS feature class points
5. Publish to ArcGIS Online	ArcGIS Pro to ArcGIS Online	Publish feature layers with attached reports for web-based access

After publishing, results can be reviewed in a browser via ArcGIS Scene Viewer, which supports both 2D maps and 3D scenes.

For 3D ground-model workflows in Civil 3D (GeoDin Ground), see ArcGIS integration in the GeoDin Ground documentation.

Prerequisites

• GeoDin with an active database and project
• ArcGIS Pro with a geodatabase (GDB)
• ArcGIS Online account (for step 5)
