The 2025 Esri Partner Conference and Esri Developer & Technology Summit in Palm Springs, California are just around the corner! This is a great opportunity to learn about the latest advancements in Indoor GIS that are designed to elevate indoor asset and space management, improve safety and security, and enhance the occupant and visitor experience.
Indoor GIS is a unified floor-aware ArcGIS system for visualizing, analyzing, and managing indoor spaces. This ability enables organizations to make their operations more efficient and make the people who use and visit their buildings feel better. Indoor GIS is powered by indoor maps created with ArcGIS Indoors, and indoor positioning could be overlaid through ArcGIS IPS.
