Geographic Information Systems Asked by M_Arc_O on June 15, 2021
I am trying to create a layout with two map frames. One map frame showing details in M 1:5000 the other one showing an overview map in M 1:50.000. I would like to link both views and show the extent of the detailed map frame automatically in the overview map frame. It is a map series of more than 6000 maps.
In ArcMap it was possible to fix the scale of the overview map, and dynamically highlight the extent of the other data frame. Everything can be exported to PDF with Data Driven Pages.
How do I do this in ArcGIS Pro?
It sounds like you know how to configure a Map Series, but just not how to configure a Layout for a Map Series which is to have the extent of its Main map frame indicated on its Overview map frame.
The steps that I use to configure a layout for that are:
This workflow comes from Making Maps and Map Series using ArcGIS Pro Layouts which is an eLearning video course that goes into making various types of map series with main, overview, inset and index maps.
