The availability and resolution of remotely sensed imagery from earth-orbiting satellites and airborne, hydrographic, and terrestrial sensors has grown dramatically. While this data is potentially valuable to national mapping organizations, they must find a way to manage it while addressing problems related to data latency, accuracy, and format interoperability.

GIS provides a standards-based framework to manage data and mitigate these issues. With GIS, you can

• Integrate disparate data sources and manage large raster catalogs to provide enterprise accessibility.
• Promote interoperability.
• Perform dynamic server-side image processing from native data sources to minimize data latency.

Remote Sensing and GIS

Remote Sensing and GIS is held annually with the ESRI International User Conference. The event provides a community for those using and interested in using remotely sensed data in GIS.
