ArcGIS Mission is continuing to push boundaries and empower teams of people centered around a common goal. Mission leverages the power of your exiting ArcGIS Enterprise to provide innovative situational awareness and lifts command and control efforts geo-spatially. We have received great feedback from our user community from conferences and meetings to numerous calls, and emails letting us know what is working, what is not and what can be improved. You have also shared with us remarkable success stories such as the Alabama Law Enforcement Agency (ALEA) deploying Mission for security and tactical operations at Governor Kay Ivey inauguration at the Alabama State Capitol in Montgomery.
Our team is setting the stage for what is to come and has been hard at work refactoring the codebase from the former ArcGIS Runtime 100’s to ArcGIS Maps SDK for .NET allowing our desktop and mobile apps to incorporate capabilities such as 3D data visualization, geocoding, routing, geoprocessing and much more.
