ArcGIS Insights  is analysis software that fuses location analytics with open data science and business intelligence workflows. It provides tools for geo-visualization and analytics to get a better understanding of your data.  

Demographic data are foundational for GIS users in many disciplines, including geography, urban planning, health, and business, among others.  Esri provides a variety of demographic and consumer data in GIS-friendly formats and the 2022 Esri Demographics are now available in Education Program licenses. With 2020 Census releases delayed, the 2022 Esri Demographics are particularly useful for understanding population dynamics since 2010.

The Esri education team hosted the webinar Gain More Insight Through Spatial Data Science and Geovisual Analytics in Education on November 3. Watch the recording  to learn hot to incorporate geovisualization analytics into your courses.

While adding 3D buildings from OpenStreetMap is an incredible tool for adding contextual data to your web scene, not all "buildings" are reasonably represented.  Consider non-standard objects in the built environment: monuments, ships, even baseball stadiums are not currently represented well.
