The ArcGIS geoprocessing framework includes a scripting environment, and Python is the scripting language included with ArcGIS. This course introduces the Python scripting syntax and shows how to use scripts to access and automate geoprocessing tasks. You will also work with ArcPy, an Esri-developed site package for Python that integrates Python scripts into ArcGIS Desktop.
