ArcGIS Pro AI Assistant: Creating & Automating Coded Domains

In this video, I explore how the ArcGIS Pro AI Assistant can be used to understand, create, and automate coded value domains using natural language prompts and Python (arcpy). We go from domain fundamentals to fully automated domain creation inside a file geodatabase.

What are coded domains and why are they helpful?

Create a domain called “landcover” in “ArcGISProAIAssistant.gdb” of “Short” type with a description “landcover domain for mapping Land Cover data. This domain consists of values for Buidling, Agriculture Land, Forest, Open Space.”
Add code value “1” with description “Building” to “landcover” domain
Add code value “2” with description “Agriculture” to “landcover” domain
Add code value “3” with description “Forest” to “landcover” domain
Add code value “4” with description “Open Space” to “landcover” domain

"Please write a Python script that accomplishes the following tasks in ArcGIS Pro using arcpy:
1. Create a geodatabase parameter and define it equal to: “geodatabase_path”
2. Create a domain named “landcover1” in the geodatabase created in step 1 with the description: “landcover domain for mapping Land Cover data. This domain consists of values for Building, Agriculture Land, Forest, Open Space.”
3. After creating “landcover1” domain add the following code values as a dictionary and use in a loop to add to the “landcover1” domain: “1” for “Building”, “2” for “Agriculture”, “3” for “Forest”, and “4” for “Open Space”.
