A new capability<\/strong> called Location Tracking for ArcGIS is coming to ArcGIS and debuted during the plenary of the Esri International User Conference<\/a>\u00a0in San Diego today.<\/p>\n

Location Tracking<\/strong> gives users the ability to share their current and previous locations while going about their work. Illustrated through the context of a point in time homelessness count, Craig Gillgrass of Esri’s Apps team, demonstrated how sharing the location of volunteers assigned neighborhoods to search and survey for homelessness, can be visualized in a Dashboard and analyzed to assess coverage and identify gaps in coverage with the goal of making sure no one is left unaccounted for.<\/p>\n

Simple and lightweight, the location tracking app is designed for low battery use and efficiency. For employees and contractors, they simply start the app, share their location, and get to work.<\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image":{"ID":274672,"id":274672,"title":"Tracker","filename":"LocationTrackingDark.png","filesize":104390,"url":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2018\/07\/LocationTrackingDark.png","link":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/products\/apps\/field-mobility\/location-tracking-debut-at-esri-international-users-conference-july-9th\/locationtrackingdark","alt":"","author":"3651","description":"","caption":"","name":"locationtrackingdark","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":274542,"date":"2018-07-09 14:50:01","modified":"2018-07-09 14:50:17","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/png","type":"image","subtype":"png","icon":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":658,"height":1102,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2018\/07\/LocationTrackingDark.png","thumbnail-width":119,"thumbnail-height":200,"medium":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2018\/07\/LocationTrackingDark.png","medium-width":156,"medium-height":261,"medium_large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2018\/07\/LocationTrackingDark.png","medium_large-width":658,"medium_large-height":1102,"large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2018\/07\/LocationTrackingDark.png","large-width":645,"large-height":1080,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2018\/07\/LocationTrackingDark.png","1536x1536-width":658,"1536x1536-height":1102,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2018\/07\/LocationTrackingDark.png","2048x2048-width":658,"2048x2048-height":1102,"card_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2018\/07\/LocationTrackingDark.png","card_image-width":278,"card_image-height":465,"wide_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2018\/07\/LocationTrackingDark.png","wide_image-width":645,"wide_image-height":1080}},"image_position":"center","orientation":"horizontal","hyperlink":""},{"acf_fc_layout":"content","content":"
