GeoPlanner for ArcGIS, a new\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/products\/arcgis-capabilities\/geodesign\">geodesign<\/a>\u00a0app from Esri, provides online geospatial tools and a geodesign workflow to help you and other planners and stakeholders collaborate on design and planning decisions both inside and outside your organization.\r\n\r\nGeoPlanner for ArcGIS is a web-based app that helps you create, edit, and share planning designs. The app integrates online maps, landscape and socioeconomic data, analysis, and sketching tools to help you visualize a plan or design and understand its impact. With the app, you can define your project area, conduct a suitability analysis for your project, create design scenarios, compare and evaluate design alternatives, and report findings.\r\n\r\nYou can use GeoPlanner for ArcGIS to measure the impact of proposed land-use changes and create wildlife conservation plans, emergency response scenarios, and more. For example, using GeoPlanner, you can plan where to locate oil and gas drilling sites in a way that minimizes impact to sensitive wildlife habitat. You can define prime habitat sites using overlay analysis on different landscape data variables, sketch proposed well sites and access roads in a geographic context, and run an impact analysis and assess performance indicators using dashboards. You can then adjust well sites and roads to create alternative scenarios, compare them, and select the one with the least environmental impact.\r\n\r\nHere is how you can get started with some of the planning and design workflows in GeoPlanner.\r\n<h3>Sketch Designs<\/h3>\r\nGeoPlanner includes simple sketching tools that let you draw points, lines, and polygons and create design alternatives. All tools are touch enabled, so you can use your tablet for your designs and access them anywhere. The app is designed to run in web browsers on both desktop and standard-sized tablet devices supporting a minimum 1024 x 768 resolution."},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image":190082,"image_position":"left-center","orientation":"horizontal","hyperlink":""},{"acf_fc_layout":"content","content":"<h3>Assess Design Impacts<\/h3>\r\nPlans and designs usually have metrics that indicate their performance or progress toward a goal.

You can bring in your own planning data, as well as discover other relevant landscape maps and data hosted in Esri ArcGIS Online, to expand the range of your planning and analysis. You can assess suitability and risk by overlaying your data and landscape and socioeconomic data that Esri provides.\r\n<h3>Get Started with the App<\/h3>\r\nSign up for a free, 30-day trial of GeoPlanner at\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/marketplace.arcgis.com\/listing.html?id=5e99f4fa519949209cd3da2966fd543b\">ArcGIS Marketplace<\/a>.
