The Esri Water Conference is the perfect place to network and collaborate with peers, learn best practices, and discover new, focused solutions that will help your organization unlock the full potential of your data. Join us to exchange workflows and workarounds, learn about technical breakthroughs, and test-drive GIS software alongside Esri subject matter experts.

“Definitely try to go! You will no doubt hear about new technologies or new ways to use the technology you currently have. Also, it's nice that most things are relevant to your work in water.” - Lauren Andrito, OUC

How many emails do you get in a day? Do you get email that isn’t important to you? It happens to me every day. I end up deleting a handful of emails before I even get started reviewing the important email.

I can’t solve all of your email woes, but I can help with the email that you receive from Esri. Did you know that you can choose what information Esri shares with you? You don’t have to get all of the Esri email. There are many options for product notifications, publications, training, and events. There are also specific industries that you can choose to hear from.

In two steps you can take control. Follow the guide below to review and define your preferences. By doing this you can ensure that you get the information that is important to you…and not what isn’t.

Step 1:

Go to go.esri.com/preferences and enter your email address.

Step 2:

Select the options for each category that you would like to receive information about:

• Product Announcements
• Print Publications
• Digital Publications
• Training
• Esri and GIS Events (Esri Water Conference)
• Industry Announcements (Be sure to choose Water) 🙂   
• Alliances
