Oceans
The GIS user community is key to figuring out which beaches around the world are consistently fouled by plastic and how to clean them up.
ArcGIS GeoAnalytics Engine
With ArcGIS GeoAnalytics Engine, it takes minutes—rather than hours or days—to process massive volumes of spatial data.
Cloud Computing
ArcGIS Pro and ArcGIS Enterprise now offer support for connecting to cloud data warehouses and publishing the data that’s stored there.
ArcGIS Online
Recent updates focused on real-time and big data analysis, working with imagery, additional options for designing urban plans, and more.

Esri’s chief scientist became the first person of African descent to dive to Challenger Deep, where she surveyed its Western Pool.
GIS Hero
Charlotte Smith taught herself GIS using Esri’s Learn Lessons. Now, she’s a GIS professor and practitioner who’s making waves in the field.
From the Meridian
The potential for mapping—and what a map can be—is enormous. This potential comes with great responsibility.
Esri Partners
When organizations need to tell geospatial stories, standardize processes, or implement new systems, Esri partners make those jobs easier.
Esri Startup Partners
To better manage and store imagery and improve change detection analysis, Esri partner Skytec implemented ArcGIS Image for ArcGIS Online.
