Tracker for ArcGIS

Workforce for ArcGIS

Optimize field operations Location awareness Plan, coordinate field work

Dispatcher Field Workers

…elegant offline coming…

Great for assigning tasks such as Road, culvert, bridge inspections, recce, safety audits, worker check in,

Workforce for ArcGIS

Works with other field apps

• Open an assignment
• Navigate to it
• Navigator – use offline turn by turn
• Capture data:
• Map: Collector for ArcGIS
• Form: Survey123 for ArcGIS
• Flag as completed

Navigator for ArcGIS

Turn by turn directions Works offline Includes network data, use with your own maps

Great for providing routing to trucks using your own FSR, RP networked data (one way in, one way out)

Collector for ArcGIS

Web maps Works offline High accuracy GPS

Great for rangeland health, wildlife habitat inventory, stream cards, inspections, rural interface fire hazards

Survey123 for ArcGIS

Form-centric field data collection Analyze results immediately Leverages Smart forms

Great for roads, bridge, culvert inspections, safety incidents, stakeholder inputs, public surveys

Drone2Map for ArcGIS

Process raw drone imagery Share and analyze in ArcGIS Create GIS ready products

Great for capturing harvesting, silviculture activities, updating the base in between fixed wing operations

Tracker for ArcGIS

Real Time location of most valued assets Available in Enterprise 10.7 NOW Work Safety, Auditing, Analyses

Great for worker safety, auditing, proxy for AVL

Explorer for ArcGIS

Your maps anywhere Sketch, annotate, and communicate Access information while disconnected

Great for replacing PDF-based workflows in the field

• Communicate your stories and work to a wider audience
• Share your geospatial assets
• Support transparency, collaboration, and community engagement

Esri Story Maps ArcGIS Open Data Crowdsource Apps

ArcGIS | Apps for the Community

ArcGIS Hub

Story Map Apps

Tell a narrative with text, maps, and media “My Stories” app console 8’ish different templates

Great for stakeholder engagements on community and environmental initiatives, leverage storymaps within storymaps to build out themed apps

ArcGIS | How do you bring maps into the field?

Paper Maps Avenza ArcGIS Explorer

ArcGIS | Going Offline with Explorer

• Better than PDFs
• Leverages ArcGIS Pro to prepare data
• Share and make available across the organization for download
• Workflows need to be planned – then, is repeatable

ArcGIS | Terms & Definitions

• MMPK – Mobile Map Package. Offline package used by ArcGIS Explorer.

Contains vector & raster data. Can also contain VTPK & TPK.

• VPTK – Vector Tile Package. Vectors that are tiled, and rendered on
• device. Smaller footprint than traditional TPKs. Overzoom, dynamic

labelling, map styling, hi def

• TPK – Tile Package. Traditional pre-cached, pre-rendered raster tiles.

Larger footprint.

• Raster Mosaic Dataset. Data model within a GDB for optimized storage,

visualization, and analytics of raster types

ArcGIS | Going Offline with Explorer

• Different workflows of offline based on content
• How you plan your offline depends on what content needs to be accessed
• n device
• Options (each option has storage and interactivity implications):
• MMPK
• MMPK+VTPK
• MMPTK+VTPK+”Cheat”
• MMPK+VPTK+nTPK
• MMPK+VPTK+”Cheat”+nTPK

ArcGIS | Create Mobile Map Package

ArcGIS | By the Numbers
