In June 2008, Esri launched its first YouTube video under its esritv channel. Since that time, more than 125 videos have been added to the channel, which cumulatively have garnered over 100,000 views. GIS has a strong visual component, making video a perfect medium to showcase its capabilities.

A visit to esritv (www.youtube.com/esritv) reveals a variety of videos, including technical demonstrations, industry seminar presentations, information about Esri events, and many topical subjects. Viewers have responded enthusiastically to Esri's presence on YouTube and expressed their appreciation for having this as a source of information and instruction. Some videos have been viewed hundreds or even thousands of times.

For customers who may be unable to attend Esri events, videos offer insight about current and upcoming ArcGIS product releases and applications.

YouTube offers a communication channel that is widely embraced by the GIS global community, as has been documented by esritv channel's viewership. Esri will continue providing meaningful video content and welcomes viewer comments.
