The Annual Esri Railroad GIS Summit ("RailSummit") is scheduled for 4-5 November 2025, hosted at Union Pacific Railroad offices in Omaha, Nebraska. The agenda for that event is being pulled together now, but we would like to hear from you, if there are topics you would like to discuss, or present, or would like Esri to arrange.
While registration for the RailSummit is not open just yet, here is the web site you can bookmark for when it's ready.
Here is a short list of topics we are thinking about, so it would be good if you could let us know if we're on the right track here, or if there are topics missing from this list:
POSSIBLE TOPIC IDEAS
LIDAR
Linear Referencing
Field Mobility
Migration from Geometric Network to Utility Network
Track Charts (straight line diagrams, schematic mapping)
Real-time GIS and live data streams
Artificial Intelligence (AI, or GeoAI)
ArcGIS Railroads Data Model
Migration from ArcMap to ArcGIS Pro
GIS and Enterprise Asset Management
...what else would like us to cover or for all of us to discuss? Feel free to use the comments below.
