Building on the strength of previous releases, ArcGIS 9 adds important capabilities not previously available. ArcGIS 9 Desktop includes a comprehensive geoprocessing framework and toolkit for creating and executing complex GIS procedures. Other highlights include improved annotation, labeling, and geodatabase interoperability. In addition, the ArcGIS extensions grow their offerings with the new ArcGlobe 3D application in ArcGIS 3D Analyst; ArcReader customization via ArcGIS Publisher; and two new extensions, Maplex for ArcGIS and ArcGIS Data Interoperability. With the introduction of two new products, ArcGIS Engine and ArcGIS Server, developers have the ability to deploy solutions as independent applications on the desktop or as Web services. In this issue of ArcNews, you will find a special section detailing the features of ArcGIS 9.
