Esri Staff Will Demonstrate Latest Innovations in 3D Mapping, Digital Twins, and Real-Time Data Analysis for Geospatial Intelligence Community
REDLANDS, Calif.—May 15, 2025— Esri, the global leader in geographic information system (GIS) technology will be presenting at the United States Geospatial Intelligence Foundation GEOINT Symposium 2025. This year’s theme at the nation’s largest gathering of geospatial intelligence (GEOINT) professionals will be building a secure tomorrow together, focusing on the cutting-edge work of the GEOINT community. Attendees at this year’s symposium will hear about new innovations to ArcGIS, Esri’s enterprise geospatial platform including:
- Integration of AI with Gaussian Splats technology, empowering users to generate highly realistic, lightweight 3D models —supporting next-generation digital twins that are smarter, faster, and more operationally aware.
- Automated object recognition in 3D environments, enabling users to automatically detect, tag, and monitor critical assets in real time with AI models trained to recognize specific objects. This will reduce manual processing time, accelerate analysis, and support more agile, data-informed decision-making at scale.
- The ability to update or enhance legacy mesh data derived from imagery or lidar, breathing new life into older datasets. When combined with real-time AI recognition geospatial digital twins become intelligent systems capable of monitoring, alerting, and adapting in real time.
- Next-generation command and control systems, powered by ArcGIS, providing users with a comprehensive operational view—both internally and externally. Decision-makers can access 3D mapping, real-time data streams, and live asset tracking in one cohesive environment.
