However, there is no reverse functionality, so ArcGIS Pro map documents are not supported by ArcMap.Įsri training resources on how to implement and use ArcGIS Pro Map files (.mxd), scenes (.sxd) and globes (.3dd) can all be migrated from ArcMap into ArcGIS Pro.
ArcGIS Pro offers unique capabilities such as: 64-bit support, combined 2D/3D visualization, multiple layer support, and project-based workflows.
Therefore, ArcGIS Pro is not a replacement for ArcMap, rather a supplement with specific capabilities that are beneficial to users alongside ArcMap functionality. ArcGIS Pro is a new application that runs in conjunction with ArcGIS Desktop.
