Product Overview

The Solution for Monitoring Time, Motion, and Change

The addition of real-time tracking capabilities to the ArcView environment further extends the data collection and analysis power of ArcView to a variety of new applications.

Real-Time Analysis

In addition to direct feed and playback of real-time data, ArcView Tracking Analyst will also allow temporal and spatial analysis of this data in real time. There are many potential applications for this technology including vehicle tracking, aircraft tracking, wildlife tracking, and much more.

"ArcView Tracking Analyst is the first product that lets desktop mapping and GIS software users take full advantage of the power of GPS technology," said ESRI President Jack Dangermond. "GPS technology offers an inexpensive, immediate, and convenient way to collect data. Tracking Analyst gives users an immediate and easy way to display and analyze this valuable information."

"Seamlessly integrating the capabilities of GIS and GPS technologies is what makes ArcView Tracking Analyst so powerful, and it's what TASC does best," said Mark Gildersleeve, TASC senior vice president. "We're excited to build on our years of work with ESRI, which started with ArcExpress. With Tracking Analyst, users can now easily display and manipulate large volumes of real-time data within the GIS environment."
