Experience 3D GIS at the 2018 Esri UC

The GIS of the future is 3D, a model of the real-world that provides an engaging and intuitive interface for visualization, analysis, monitoring, and sharing. Recent technology advances in data collection—such as “reality capture” from drones or airplanes, building information models (BIM), commercial “street view” equipment, 3D photogrammetry, and Internet of Things (IoT) sensors—are creating massive amounts of rich 3D data that can be transformed into useful, actionable information.

Next month at the 2018 Esri User Conference in San Diego (July 9th – 13th), connect with 3D GIS experts to learn about the latest 3D GIS software and experience how Esri’s 3D GIS technology has transformed the way 3D information can be managed, utilized, and integrated with your enterprise GIS. 3D is a core GIS capability that’s easier than ever to integrate into your current workflows.

At the 2018 Esri UC, visit the 3D GIS Showcase where you can:

• Discover how Esri’s Enterprise 3D GIS strategy can transform your work.
• Learn best practices when creating 3D scenes and experiences.
• Connect with Esri professionals to answer your questions and help you get started with 3D GIS.

The 3D GIS Showcase will be open:

Tuesday, July 10th 9:00 AM–6:00 PM
Wednesday, July 11th 9:00 AM–6:00 PM
Thursday, July 12th 9:00 AM–1:30 PM
Ground Level Exhibit Hall A, SDCC

Also, be sure to check out theater sessions to dive deep into 3D and see how it’s all done. Esri staff will demonstrate the latest in 3D technology, from CityEngine to Web Scenes, and provide the audience with great tips & tricks to implement into current GIS workflows. The sessions highlighted below run the gamut of all things 3D.
