====== ArcGIS notes ======

  * [ArcGIS Pro] Setting the symbology for multiple layers in ArcGIS Pro: This is not straightforward, apparently people have done this using scripts (see Stackoverflow). One easy way for a small number of layers is to add a symbology to the "Favourite" galleries and then simply select it for each layer.
  * Decimate feature numbers using [[https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/latest/help/mapping/layer-properties/definition-query.htm|definition queries]] to speed up display: in ArcGIS Pro, one can set an [[https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/latest/help/mapping/navigation/sql-reference-for-elements-used-in-query-expressions.htm|SQL query]] to only load every //n-th// feature using the ''mod()'' function and the feature counter. Thanks to Stuart G. for the tip!
