TelUC Bits & Bytes Newsletter - April 2023
News & Updates
This month (April 20th) ArcGIS Enterprise 11.1 was released. It is available for Windows and LINUX, with Kubernetes coming later this year. This long term release provides many updates to ArcGIS Enterprise portal, Content and data management, Administration, Apps, ArcGIS Enterprise server roles, and ArcGIS Enterprise on Kubernetes. Check out this blog for details.
H3 is a hierarchical indexing system developed by Uber that uses hexagons to tile the Earth’s surface. H3 builds its grid of hexagons over an icosahedron: a shape with 20 triangular faces and 12 vertices. H3 has become a popular indexing system in the telecom industry and now ArcGIS Pro's Generate Tessellation GP tool includes H3 as an output option.

Telecom Insights
A system of engagement is a platform that promotes and facilitates user interaction and collaboration. Esri’s ArcGIS software is a system of record, a system of engagement, and a system of insight that utilizes the power of location intelligence to support the entire organization.
Communications service providers (CSPs) can use ArcGIS as a single source of truth for real-time information and analytics, providing all teams with a comprehensive foundation for intelligent decision-making. The system complements a company's operations and business support systems by providing easy access to data in a single application, enabling collaboration across the organization.
Now, everyone can collaborate with maps that are hosted on web browsers and apps on any device, anytime, anywhere. Learn more and share these insights with your organization by downloading the 'Delivering Organizational Engagement and Understanding with ArcGIS' eBook.
Check out this month's Talking Telecom with Patrick Ryan and Randall Rene as they discuss digital divide, broadband funding, and how ArcGIS can support organizations delivering nextgen broadband services.
