This is an entry-level course teaching how to add GIS map, 3D map to web applications in JavaScript.

Code provided in this course are simple and effective.

Purpose of this course is to give students an idea of to what extent ArcGIS JavaScript API can do for you.

GIS stands for Geographic Information System.

It is composed of hardware, software, people, environment, and data.

Therefore, students with different backgrounds can learn and use GIS.

The purpose of this course is to convey a concept to students that adding a GIS map to web for your clients is not difficult.

You can spend your minimum time to handle it.

If you are new to using GIS maps in web development, this course is the right place for you to start.

The ArcGIS API for JavaScript has been developed by ESRI, which is so far the biggest vendor of GIS systems and applications in the world.

Some developers may ask why do we bother to use GIS maps as we already have Google map.

My answer is that the Google map is great for you to identify your locations.

But its data, functionality, and flexibility are far from enough if you want to create a versatile app with various basemaps, to tell a story, to add your own map features, or to perform an analysis to your clients with a map.

ArcGIS, on the other hand, is the most comprehensive and advanced GIS in the world and it is capable of performing all these tasks for you.

Please be mentioned that the 3D map API is still in beta version.

Time is precious for many web developers and programmers.

This course was condensed with all necessary steps for starting a web GIS app development.

For those GIS users, students, iOS developers, and anyone who are interested in developing more decent mobile or web GIS apps.

Please find at my website or be aware of my other course announcements about Android, JavaScript, and iOS in the future.
