ArcGIS Data Appliance: Access Esri Basemaps Securely Behind Your Firewall

By Karisa Schroeder and Elizabeth Ole and Robert Jensen

Did you know that Esri’s suite of Basemaps is available online and on-premise? Part of the Esri On-Premise Data and Location Services collection, ArcGIS Data Appliance provides access to over 50 Basemap styles, ready for visualization and analysis. Released annually, ArcGIS Data Appliance includes a rich suite of raster and vector basemaps, and elevation services.

Increase collaboration while keeping data secure

ArcGIS Data Appliance serves as a single source of truth, enabling multiple departments, working on-and-off site, to access the same map. This help teams to scale and be more efficient. For organizations with strict data regulations, deploying an ArcGIS Data Appliance keeps data internal. Users can build critical apps right away and share services with other people in the organization with granted access. This added level of security provides a safeguard against uncertainties and adds an extra line of defense in protecting an organization’s internal data.

Trust in your decision making

Disaster response is a common use case of ArcGIS Data Appliance. In times of emergency, trusted data matters. With accuracy in mind, Esri’s basemaps are prepared with data from authoritative sources and curated by a professional team of cartographers. When an event occurs, such as a hurricane or snowstorm, teams continue to have access to authoritative maps – even in power outages. Field workers and administrators continue to have access to information to solve problems quickly and efficiently, when time matters most.
