ArcGIS 10.2 for desktop is an improvement based on the success of 10.1. Its improvements include: improved performance, added security, new analysis tools, improved 3D functions, enhanced raster, new geographic data management capabilities, and more.
1. quality and performance
Solved more than 600 software problems, mainly focused on software quality and performance enhancement.
Extended Parallel processing capabilities in geoprocessing. In SP1 of ArcGIS 10.1, some GP tools have provided parallel processing capabilities. Now, 10.2 continues to expand this capability, this allows five of the space analysis tools to support parallel processing of up to four cores.
With optimized file processing, the GP service efficiency of ArcGIS for server in Linux is 25% faster.
2. Security
2.1 PKI support
ArcGIS PKI (Public Key Infrastructure, Public Key Infrastructure) is added for dual authentication, which makes the software environment more secure.
2.2 Single Sign-on
ArcGIS allows you to log on to the ArcGIS system from any client and use these creden。 throughout the ArcGIS system. For example, when ESRI's global geocoding service is used to process geographical codes in batches, the creden。 can be automatically transferred from ArcMap to ArcGIS online.
2.3 standard SQL parser
When using the SQL query definition service, parse SQL to prevent others from inserting malicious code into SQL statements. The standard SQL parser is now provided to prevent this "injection attack ".
3. Analysis
3.1 Conversion
Provide new EXCEL to table and table to excel tools to import and export Excel workbooks as needed.
The new feature class to JSON and JSON to feature class tools support big data and web application workflows that frequently require JSON expressions of geometric elements.
Using the new multipatch to raster tool, you can convert a polygon element into a grid. For example, you can create an Elevation Grid from a roof polygon.
3.2 drawing
The delineate built-up areas tool provides the new parameter "minimum number of buildings" to control how many buildings need to be output as a polygon in a build-up area.
3.3 Data Management
Provides a new archiving toolset to enable and disable geographic database archiving. It models and analyzes geographic databases based on time changes. Since ArcGIS 10.2, the archiving function does not require version control.
The geotagged photos to points tool provides better support for mobile workflows. It now stores the orientation of each point of the camera in the range of 0 to degrees.
3.4 spatial analysis, geographic statistical analysis, and spatial statistics
The new visibility tool in spatial analysis supports the use of input data attributes or user-specified values as their parameters. Reclassify, weighted overlay, weighted sum, zonal statistics, and zonal statistics as table) the tool supports up to 4 cores for parallel processing.
Added the arcpy class "geostatisticaldatesets", which is used to automatically perform Geographic Statistics and interpolation and generate a new dataset. It can be used to manage a layer or geographic statistics model (XML) with a Geographic Statistics layer) associated datasets.
The optimized Hot Spot Analysis (optimal hotspot analysis) tool is added to spatial statistics to explore data and determine optimal settings. Hotspot analysis tools maintain basic scientific computing, and users do not need to assume the statistical background.
3.5 arcpy and Python
ArcGIS 10.2 for desktop is installed with Python 2.7.3.
You can create an SQLite database that contains the ESRI st_geometry or spatiry space type and create it using the new createsqlitedatabase workspace function.
The geocoding service can be automatically released using python. The creategeocodesddraft function can create service definitions from the address locator, which is in the arcpy. server module.
The rastertonumpyarray and numpyarraytoraster functions support multi-band raster.
4. Drawing
4.1 compatibility
Map, scene, and globe documents of ArcGIS 10.1 and 10.2 are compatible with each other. With ArcGIS 10.1, you can directly open the project documents of ArcGIS 10.2 without any additional operations.
4.2 basemap
ESRI is considering replacing the Bing basemap with the ArcGIS world image base map. ArcGIS provides high-resolution (1 meter or less) satellite and aerial images in many countries.
4.3 report
The ArcGIS report tool allows you to create custom mail labels from data in layers or attribute tables, and send official notifications or information directly by email.
