Gaussian Splats expand the existing ArcGIS Reality outputs\u2014such as True Orthos, 3D meshes and point clouds\u2014offering an additional layer of realism and flexibility. This new 3D layer captures fine details of infrastructure, vegetation, and urban environments with exceptional clarity, enabling organizations to create lifelike representations of the world. Gaussian splats can be created in ArcGIS Drone2Map, ArcGIS Reality for ArcGIS Pro, and ArcGIS Reality Studio, with support coming soon to Site Scan for ArcGIS in 2026. They are viewable in ArcGIS Pro 3.6 and later, and future releases will expand integration and analysis capabilities across the ArcGIS ecosystem.
