Unlocking the Full Potential of GIS across Your Organization<\/em><\/strong>
\nMost of us using GIS take advantage of only a fraction of the capabilities, and over time we get comfortable in what we know and do. While this allows us to improve our work and optimize our processes, it also limits our impact across the organization. But expanding the scope of your GIS is a lot of work. At least it used to be.
\nEnter ArcGIS Solutions<\/a>. Now you don\u2019t need to dedicate significant resources and learn new areas from the ground up. We are committed to providing you easy to use apps, maps, and platform configurations to base your work on.
\nOver the last several years here at Esri we have been working on building more and more of these ready-to-use solutions for you across the entire ArcGIS platform. We currently provide about 200 such industry-specific solutions to help you expand your scope. These range from web applications such as Park and Recreation Finder<\/a>, to configurations of existing apps like Damage Assessment<\/a> using Collector for ArcGIS, to widgets such as the ArcGIS GeoEvent Processor Extension for doing Water Main Break Notification<\/a>, and ArcGIS Desktop maps like the Fire Station Run Book<\/a>. We even provide common information models to provide ideas on how to better leverage the information you already have.

\nThese apps, maps, and platform configurations<\/a> span across the entire ArcGIS platform. For example we deliver additional tools for the desktop, configured mobile applications, ready-to-use web applications, and configured organizational accounts showing best practices for groups, items, and users for your organization.
\nWe provide these solutions across eight major communities:<\/p>\n
