Featured
With help from Esri’s Disaster Response Program, agencies predicted flood risk, mapped isolated communities, and shared travel restrictions.
Conservation
NatureServe’s Explorer Pro web app, built with ArcGIS Enterprise, ensures that species data is comparable from one jurisdiction to the next.
Collaboration
ArcGIS Living Atlas has up-to-date ACS data, Esri and NOAA are creating a hub for ocean data, and Autodesk Forma is getting geospatial data.
3D
To try to identify victims of the 1921 Tulsa race massacre, investigators are using GIS to make a 3D model of Oaklawn Cemetery’s Section 20.
ArcGIS Living Atlas of the World
With data layers such as population, river flow, and crops, the app shows the impacts of drought on communities across the United States.
ArcGIS Online
ArcGIS Experience Builder and ArcGIS Instant Apps have several new features to help users build robust web apps with minimal effort.
ArcGIS GeoAnalytics Engine
Monitoring network adequacy involves large datasets and complex calculations to confirm that health care is within reach for all members.
ArcGIS Data Pipelines
By implementing ArcGIS Data Pipelines, KBC Advisors has saved time, enhanced efficiency, and improved data delivery.
3D
To account for unique geography and elevation variation, the city used an ArcGIS Pro script tool to model streetlight distribution in 3D.
Collaboration
ArcGIS Field Maps, ArcGIS Experience Builder, ArcGIS Hub, and more help community members get more engaged in wildfire risk mitigation.
Scientific Currents
Data and GIS can be used to map solutions’ relative suitability, impacts in different locations, feasibility, and costs.
Thought Leader
Data spaces like Gaia-X let data providers work across clouds while controlling access to data. Esri technology integrates well with Gaia-X.
GIS Hero
GIS Hero Jim Alberque has spent 25 years in local government using GIS to help make cities better for their residents.
Esri Startup Partners
With West Broad Street in Columbus, Ohio, becoming a rapid-transit bus corridor, Esri startup partner inCitu used AR to get public buy-in.
Esri Partners
Three partners helped a gas utility and two counties enhance their GIS-based workflows to streamline operations and fix data inaccuracies.
Esri Press
New books from Esri Press cover how to design better maps, how to add big data to GIS workflows, and GIS for defense and intelligence.
