Join Us Virtually at the Esri UC 2020!

[BruceHarold]

The 2020 Esri User Conference has many sessions on the ArcGIS Open Platform. We want to make it easy for you to work successfully in a heterogeneous environment. To create an open and interoperable system, Esri has adopted a multifaceted approach, including support of: standards; direct integrations with non-GIS technology; direct read & write of hundreds of data formats; open developers’ tools; ETL tools; metadata; open source; open data sharing; and SDI.
