A new book from Esri Press is being published and released this summer: The Power of Where<\/em><\/strong>, by Jack Dangermond, Esri, and the GIS Community.

Jack Dangermond and Esri are cited as authors for their work describing the methods, practices, and case studies of GIS throughout the book.

They\u2019re the people who have built communities, developed new concepts, and explored new frontiers in geographic data and analysis advancing the geographic approach.

The book was inspired by Jack\u2019s vision for GIS, and it both articulates his thinking about the geographic approach and expresses his passion for continuing to push the evolution of GIS forward. His vision and Esri\u2019s fundamental work, keep advancing, sharpened in part by our conversations with GIS professionals. The work they perform in turn, inspires thousands of Esri employees to join him in working hard to meet their needs.

For those of us at Esri, it has been an honor to witness and observe the accomplishments throughout the history of GIS that have occurred through the critically important innovation and data sharing by the global GIS community. In response to this, The Power of Where<\/em> is about user stories and examples. The book helps to define and describe the broadening power and roles of GIS: its movement to the web, its ever-broadening audience of users, its use as a tool that can be used to envision, plan, and implement a brighter future.<\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"content","content":"

The book contains 490 GIS maps packed into 300 pages. Over 90 percent of these maps contain information layers from multiple GIS organizations. GIS data layers possess the wonderful property of being able to be georeferenced and combined with other overlapping GIS data and imagery layers. Often, this integration leads to new and unforeseen insights.<\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image":{"ID":2354912,"id":2354912,"title":"Fuji2","filename":"Fuji2.jpg","filesize":113907,"url":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Fuji2.jpg","link":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/products\/arcgis\/announcements\/the-power-of-where\/fuji2","alt":"NOT FOR USE WITHOUT PERMISSION.
