Explore 3D GIS at UC 2026<\/strong><\/h2>\n

If you are attending UC 2026, 3D GIS offers a powerful way to see this year\u2019s theme, GIS: Creating a more intelligent world<\/strong>, in action. With 3D in ArcGIS, you can explore places, projects, and systems in realistic, interactive environments that make it easier to understand complexity, evaluate impact, and coordinate action.<\/p>\n

Throughout the week, you can connect with Esri experts, see 3D capabilities in action, and learn how 3D supports workflows across planning, infrastructure, AEC, operations, natural resources, and digital twins.<\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"content","content":"

A quick look at 3D GIS<\/strong><\/h2>\n

3D is an essential part of ArcGIS, helping users better understand the physical world through realistic, interactive views of their data. By bringing layers of information into a 3D environment, users can more easily see spatial relationships, explore context, and communicate complex ideas in a way others can quickly understand.<\/p>\n

Across ArcGIS, 3D supports a wide range of workflows, from managing 3D content and visualizing complex environments to analyzing impact and creating immersive experiences. Users can work with data such as BIM, lidar, point clouds, meshes, and 3D objects, then share that content across web, mobile, desktop, and XR experiences.<\/p>\n

A useful way to understand 3D GIS is through three patterns: publish, decide, and operate<\/strong>. Users publish trusted 3D content as a shared baseline, decide with 3D by evaluating options and understanding potential impacts, and operate in 3D by coordinating work in connected environments as conditions change. Together, these patterns help support digital twin workflows by connecting data, systems, and people through a shared 3D view of reality.<\/p>\n

For a deeper dive into the power of 3D, check out the Immersive Mapping: The Power of 3D in ArcGIS<\/strong> <\/a> technical session on Tuesday, July 14, or Wednesday, July 15. To see how these same 3D capabilities come together in broader workflows, explore our Digital Twin StoryMap<\/strong><\/a>, which shows how 3D helps power living digital twins across real-world use cases.<\/div>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"content","content":"
