Immerse, engage, and interact

ArcGIS is compatible with industry-leading technology for virtual and augmented realities—both standalone and tethered.

Explore, analyze, and interact effortlessly with XR

Enhance workflows through immersive experiences with real-time visualization and the analysis of geospatial data to aid in decision-making, navigation, asset management, and training.

Site assessment and planning

Conduct site assessments or plan field operations and allow virtual exploration of the site in a realistic 3D representation. Identify potential challenges, visualize infrastructure, and make informed decisions about the best approach for the task at hand.

Empowering organizations with 3D visualization capabilities

ArcGIS provides powerful visualization tools to gain enhanced comprehension, make informed decisions, analyze spatial relationships accurately, and monitor changes over time. This can help improve communication and collaboration for more effective decision-making processes.

  • Utilities and energy

    Electricity, water, and gas providers can use 3D experiences to enhance their work in the field. Overlay real-time data and instruction views to optimize maintenance, inspections, and repairs to improve response times, reduce errors, and enhance worker safety.

  • Environmental and natural resource management

    Forestry, wildlife conservation, and land surveying can use virtual reality technology to visualize and analyze environmental data, conduct surveys, and monitor ecosystems. This supports better data collection, analysis, and decision-making for more effective environmental management.

  • Emergency response and disaster management

    Virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) technologies help responders simulate emergency scenarios, strategize evacuation routes, and coordinate rescue efforts. This enhances preparedness, optimizes training, and boosts situational awareness during critical incidents.

  • Architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC)

    VR and AR technologies allow users to visualize and interact with 3D models of construction sites, building plans, and equipment. These technologies help support enhanced project planning, on-site collaboration, and real-time problem-solving.
