- Visualize data in 3D
- Edit KML in its entirety
- Share work in any environment
- Deploy on any network
One app for KML and other data
Access data from local files, ArcGIS Online, ArcGIS Enterprise, and the web with a service URL. Add a variety of files, like 3D models, KML/KMZ files, TXT, image, map, feature, and Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) services. Or leverage Esri curated and ArcGIS ready global location data, including imagery, human movement, environmental, and business data, to support your work.
Visualize data in 3D
Visualize data on a 3D globe for situational awareness. Display KML/KMZ and other data; measure models, shapes, and distances; create an elevation profile; and conduct an interactive line of sight and viewshed analysis to plan operations. Use symbology for stronger graphic presentation.
Edit KML in its entirety
Manipulate KML, including editing its feature geometry, network links, screen and ground overlays, graphic styles, and file structure, to reflect changing circumstances and provide up-to-date information. Identify and handle KML errors on the fly, play KML tours, and extrude 2D markups for improved understanding of an operating environment.
Share work in any environment
Save your work and share as a KMZ file in connected and disconnected environments for informed decision-making. ArcGIS Earth provides mechanisms to access and share data for 3D visualization in any environment. Take content offline with desktop or mobile devices.
Deploy on any network
Use in classified and unclassified environments. ArcGIS Earth handles protected services at all network levels for customers behind the firewall. ArcGIS Earth also supports the security protocols you trust, including ArcGIS Enterprise authentication, built-in security, IWA security, PKI security, SAML authentication, and Kerberos.
How it works
Explore anywhere on the globe
Zoom to an area of interest (AOI) or add your data to the globe to establish a geospatial point of reference.
Interact in 3D
Use interactive line of sight, viewshed, and elevation tools to plan operations on a 3D globe.
Sketch, annotate, and measure
Draw and edit placemarks, paths, and polygons. Add annotations and operational data. Measure coordinates and the distance between 3D points.
Style with symbology
Symbolize feature layers with the single symbol and dictionary methods, including military symbology, for stronger graphic presentation.
Communicate and share
Save and share your KML/KMZ files with collaborators to use in connected and disconnected environments on desktop or mobile devices.
Visualize, analyze, and share data anytime, any place
ArcGIS Earth mobile extends the capabilities of the desktop version right to your fingertips. Browse 2D and 3D content to visualize data on the globe, record and share GPS tracks, and perform the same 3D analysis as the desktop application— all from the palm of your hand. Connect and share information back to a portal with just a few taps.
