GIS is transforming into a pervasive platform that connects existing GIS investments and provides mapping and analysis capabilities to entire organizations. ArcGIS provides the core of this platform by offering data management, analysis, visualization, and integration with other systems. It supports a variety of devices and enables new user experiences through crowdsourcing and location awareness. As a platform, ArcGIS breaks down barriers between workflows and disciplines, and organizations are rapidly adopting it to organize and share information.
