Abstract

Arcpy and Data Driven Pages for Map Automation and Standardization
Track: National Mapping
Authors: Anders Berg

Arcpy and Data Driven pages were used to develop a series of scripts that can create a large series of maps that are all standardized. These scripts are used to create an efficient map production process. These scripts automate map document creation, can uniformly alter map elements across a series of maps and also uniformly create a final deliverable product file for every map document. As a result of these scripts, time and money can be saved during the map production process.
