Over the years, the application of GIS expanded from projects to departments then the entire enterprise and finally to collaborations between organizations. Accompanying this change in scale was an increase in availability. The ArcGIS platform now supports GIS across desktops, servers, mobile devices, and the cloud.\r\n\r\nThe ArcGIS platform continually incorporates new developments in IT. This issue includes articles about how GIS integrates some of the most promising and powerful aspects of IT such as artificial intelligence, real-time analysis of big data, integration of building information modeling (BIM), and scalable processing in the cloud so that enormous jobs that were previously impractical or just impossible can now be handled.\r\n\r\nAs GIS capabilities have expanded, so have its uses, as illustrated by the ArcGIS Common Patterns of Use poster included in this issue. The original common patterns\u2014mapping and visualization, data management, sharing and collaboration, and decision support\u2014have increased in number and now include field mobility, monitoring, analytics, design and planning, and constituent engagement.\r\n\r\nThese patterns of use provide the foundation for building smart communities and better outcomes not just for organizations but also for the world. Esri\u2019s commitment to this original goal is brought out in \u201cSystems that Serve,\u201d an interview with Scott Morehouse. For many years the director of software development at Esri, Morehouse stepped back from this role to work with research and development teams at Esri that are developing GIS technology for urban systems and civic engagement. When explaining this move, Morehouse said, \u201cI want to build systems that serve people\u2014systems to guide, direct, or organize the civic process.\u201d"},{"acf_fc_layout":"pdf","file":56232}],"references":null},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v25.9 (Yoast SEO v25.9) -
