Where it fits in a city technology stack

For city organizations, GIS can connect records that are already tied to place: parcels, streets, utilities, environmental observations, services, and development plans. Esri’s ArcGIS Urban product is positioned for scenario modeling, data-driven analysis, project tracking, and collaborative planning. These are product capabilities described by Esri; a purchase alone does not establish planning outcomes or public benefit.
