Live Action Videos

This page provides videos for Manifold's new SQL for ArcGIS Pro add-in for Esri's ArcGIS Pro desktop GIS. The add-in provides spatial SQL for Esri file geodatabases in your ArcGIS Pro project in tight integration with ArcGIS Pro.

Image at right: SQL for ArcGIS Pro automatically uses massively parallel GPU, for example, doing complex curvature calculations in parallel to enhance terrain elevation surfaces on over a thousand GPU cores, accomplishing in 2 minutes using GPU parallelism what takes non-parallel code five days.


SQL 15 Minute Tutorial - Find Common Borders with Point and Click Tools

The SQL for ArcGIS Pro add-in for Esri's ArcGIS Pro package provides superb spatial SQL, but in addition it also provides a wide range of point and click tools that encapsulate very sophisticated SQL functionality in point and click panes and dialogs. We use point and click dialogs to extract shared border lines from a map of Canada, the US, and Mexico, doing a spatial self join and other spatial manipulations to produce a new, clean feature class with impeccable geometry.


SQL 5 Minute Tutorial - Add Fields to a Feature Class and Populate

In less than 5 minutes using SQL for ArcGIS Pro, we add three new fields to a feature class in a file geodatabase and then we populate 3500 records with text and numeric values, all with just a few clicks. Way faster and easier than ArcPy or dialogs!


SQL for ArcGIS Pro - Install and Activate

See how to install and activate SQL for ArcGIS Pro, and then how to launch the add-in and do real SQL with file geodatabases! The first three minutes show the super easy installation and activation process with the rest of the video showing a quick start to writing and executing SQL queries, including use of the query builder.


Advanced Mode Video Gallery

SQL for ArcGIS Pro used in Advanced mode can do everything that Manifold Release 9 can do. See the Release 9 Videos page for a long list of videos that demonstrated the astonishing speed of Manifold technology, all of which can be done using SQL for ArcGIS Pro.


SQL for ArcGIS® Pro has been Discontinued

SQL for ArcGIS® Pro has been discontinued in favor of using Manifold System Release 9. The two products are almost identical so instead of providing a separate SQL for ArcGIS Pro product, Manifold is offering all SQL for ArcGIS Pro licensees a free upgrade to Manifold Release 9 Universal Edition, a $195 value at no additional charge.


 


Curvature enhanced image

Videos demonstrate the speed and incredible ease of use of SQL for ArcGIS Pro: The Speed Demo with 1280 GPU Cores video shows how the Transform template in Advanced mode can enhance terrain elevation surfaces with complex curvature calculations, accomplishing in 2 minutes using GPU parallelism what takes non-parallel code five days. The image above shows enhanced detail in the rim of Crater Lake, showing terraces in the rim and flow patterns downhill.
