ArcGIS–GIS and Mapping & Location Platform, Jack Dangermond Keynote, Esri UC 2018 (3-of-4)

a next like to talk about ESRI and our work we see our work as fundamentally creating useful technology that supports you and your work doing your work better that's how we're wired you talk to any essary person it's in their DNA and in the process of this addressing all the major challenges that all of us are facing that's the context I want to set before we move forward and the vehicle the mechanism when we do this with is ArcGIS this technology that many of you use to frame this better we might describe that our chess is a comprehensive geospatial platform and it's open it's now completely services based so it's Web Services this thing I've been talking about and it's also for individuals it's also for workgroups it's also for teams it's also for organizations and as you'll see during the morning and the afternoon it's spreading out to involve and engage communities Marchesa's supports two kinds of fundamental communities one is the traditional GIS systems of record etc and the other one is this whole emerging world of more simplified mapping and location analytics and it it embodies the ability to organize and store and manage all types of data it does this by organizing content and information products that you create and models and also organizing people into one set of user experiences so I can actually organize an axe this Geographic knowledge across my organization now I'm sorry I skipped off slide here ahead and but I wanted to make the point here that it actually organizes all types of measurements the vector data raster data image data lidar data whatever and it abstracts that data into a common language of maps and scenes and layers that's how the technology really works it's through abstraction that's what makes it so pervasive across the web it focuses in three main areas of the enterprise actually all departments of the enterprise first in the data management system of Records and second in the analytics world systems of insights and third perhaps most important these days is systems of engagement which allow engagement of everyone in the organization and now increasingly with whole communities that's the big that's the big next step I would like now to move a little faster in talking about what's happening inside of the tools that you use every day both for location intelligence and for core GIS lots of things are happening and I know you guys are working hard too to keep up with it I'll try to go through a high-level view and then during the workshops during the week you'll get deeper knowledge at the core of GIS is data management and here we're supporting new industry models and utilities and in roads and highways pipelines and so on we've we're adding listen carefully we're adding a new kind of data type this is unstructured data it's like you have in text files and it'll read through the text files and find geo codes using gazetteers and try to geocode text interesting to any of you maybe some I think so we've also improved editing in 3d lots of new tools and expanding the geo database support taking it to the cloud and also at this release full support of your geodatabases in SA P Hana in the last year we've worked very hard with our colleagues at Autodesk Corporation to integrate our respective products we now can do direct integration between their engineering products and bim modeling and arcgis this comes down to being able to read our chests and services directly inside of things like infraworks or autocad etc and in turn also the ability to read bim files Revit files directly inside a pro which means we can spread out and use this new 3d bim information across an entire city ok that's technically what's happening but in a greater context this is sort of turned and may become alive the whole integration of design engineering with your world to the GIS world and we're gonna see an exciting demo of that after the break our chest continues to support apps that work in the field and these are getting better and expanding for field data collection field coordination and now taking Maps as map books digital map books into the field and being able to work with them while these are technical things the big deal for me is that these are all connected to the enterprise system so that we can see in real time where everybody's out and help them coordinate their work speaking about dashboards did I talk about dashboards this morning I maybe I did one of the reasons why they're coming alive is they have been completely re-engineered with web services based dashboards this is by the way this is the second most popular app two story mounts and people are just like crazy deploying them because they're very easy to setup one city the city of I think it's I hope I get this right Wichita Kansas they've deployed over 300 dashboards I mean they're looking at everything in the city as you would imagine a smart city the content that we maintain inside of ArcGIS online is is basically yours and there are millions and millions and millions of data sets that you have shared so that other people can use it but at ESRI we've also set about 6,000 data sets and services that cover the globe and the United States in great detail and these are what we call the living Atlas we we spend a lot of money on and time on curating this data into ready to use services and this year we're releasing some new things all new vector base maps have now been released a new dynamic OpenStreetMap service which you don't know about this will allow when people update Open Street Map just a little bit later you'll be able to have it in your vector data set like minutes do you like this idea this is a cool idea we are adding Sentinel we have added Sentinel the new space space imagery from Europe as a as an online service and then we have some new imagery styles the living Atlas is a huge collection of ready to use services as I mentioned and it's being used to fuel lots and lots of things smart mapping was introduced a couple of years ago this allows us to create Maps beautiful maps anyone can do it by simply drag-and-drop and letting the computer and rules be able to make the right kind of rendering styles we've been making progress here taking it into 3d integrating the WebGL performance that we have now in browsers you can see how very fast it's rendering and also creating a new concept I want you to pay you listen listen pay attention to those dynamic data-driven mapping this involves vector tiles yes but it's not simply vector tiles that you cache and make available no these are vector tiles that have attributes carried with them that means vector featured tiles and that means we can do client-side rendering client-side analytics just opening up the doors for lots and lots of new and interesting things to be done in the world of mapping and cartography we've improved symbology and annotation for those of you who do production mapping it spurred we've automated some of the aspects of making very large scale and small scale Maps automatically with generalization and the rich symbology for me I'm excited because we've now put our services right into the Adobe Creative Cloud so that the graphic arts people can have access to the the real truth data it's it's a cool thing you're right and finally we've integrated increasingly and improving the maps for Microsoft Office products like office like SharePoint like maps for power bi so that you know normal people can have access to this data your data dynamically in an easy ways in the world of 3d mapping and visualization lots of new things are happening I've already talked about smart maps but new symbologies my favorite is being able to use my device to look at the whole world through a scene viewer on my device I can zoom in I can zoom out I can zoom into a city this is gonna be really interesting for you guys to use and finally as I've already shared augmented reality virtual reality these are new dimensions for us to take GIS into the field and understand things that we don't understand right now 3d is not just visualization is also analytics and these are a few tools that have been added in the area of 3d measurement 3d analytics volumetric measurement governor this would be appealing to you because you can look underground do sections and explore petroleum in ways that we've never been able to do before and that's just beginning real time is now a way of life real-time analytics integrate the sensor networks and the whole world of IOT directly into the platform using the Geo event server in the last year we've more than doubled the performance of this but even more important ten times the volume so we can deal with thousands and thousands and thousands of observations a second and see them then on our dashboards or our displays this is a key for smart cities it's a key for connected cars it's a key for robotics it's key for a lot of things and it's also just a key for bringing to life real-time in your GIS in the world of imagery in the last year we've extended the are chess Pro desktop with something called the image image analyst and this this takes pro and turns it into a high powered image analytics workstation it can reap virtually any major sensor you pick it drones aircraft satellites and read it right in and dynamically process it and visualize it and do exploitation of the image do analytics this last year and you'll see some of this later we've integrated with AI and deep learning devices so we can pull out features see what we could not see in the normal picture and many things have been added for supporting map production big orthophoto computations automatically with massive amounts of imagery all of this laying the fabric for future remote sensing at scale insights the little app that I told you about before I wouldn't say it's little but it's it's powerful its providing location analytics and visualization for people that are not GIS professionals drag-and-drop visualization charts and graphs exploratory spatial analysis and in this last year we've added link analysis something that many of you asked for yes link analysis link charts showing connections between things adding powerful statistical tools and this is this is opening up your world to others in your organization ArcGIS is well known for its comprehensive spatial analytic tools there's over 1200 of them this last year we added 60 more in the areas of space-time modeling large raster analytics hydrological modeling new charting and just lots of interesting improved tools but I know some of you in this room are interested in the world of artificial intelligence and machine learning and how do we integrate that into all that you do well it's quite interesting because the lady on my right here one of my favorite people in the world has been steadily working on integrating machine learning into the core platform for years these include tools such as clustering prediction object identification now and her and her teams are working on more of it feature extraction these have been implemented as geoprocessing tools that you can mix and work with your worlds of geoprocessing models now we've also been working on extending this world into the big AI platforms platforms like Microsoft and others and also making providing access to the popular frameworks for AI and kind of an interactive back and forth between your workstation and this cloud and powerful amount of data I'm going to move now to app builders app builders are technologies that allow you to build apps with no pro and there's two of them wanted for the web web app builder and one for native devices called app studio and last year over a half a million new apps were made by you and made available to the public isn't that amazing number I mean it's just shocking to me so these these tools allow us to take widgets and move them around and create apps that are almost like you know temporary apps a wildfire comes I can make an app for that fire talk to the citizens and move on it's a different game now in terms of that building our chess is a developer platform and it supports developers in four ways first I just want to contextualize this our developer platform is both for extending our basic enterprise platform and tools but also for independent developers it supports GIS people it supports enterprise developers and it supports well ended in an app developers it does it in four ways first with Python scripting a Python API which we released last year second with the pro SDK which allows you to build add-ins third and perhaps most popular is the web app builder the the JavaScript API which supports very cool web apps and finally the native device apps which are supported by runtime these runtimes are new libraries that are very fast extraordinary actually that you can embed inside of devices and build apps around them that work both in a deployed environment but also in a connected disconnected environment with your system I'm going to talk about a couple of these one of them is the first one is JavaScript API and here you see this client-side capability earlier I mentioned this idea of feature tiles as we serve feature tiles I'm getting access to the full data and the JavaScript API think of it like it's a bunch of little software that lives inside your browser that does powerful things with your data so I'm serving these tiles and I can render them locally in my browser and I can do analytics in my browser and it's so cool I mean this is gonna open up broadly the use of GIS acrost I think society the second development tool that some of you actually I think most of you uses Python scripting and this shows up in two areas one with arc PI in the desktop and the other one is with the new Python API that lives in enterprise and online these two environments allow us to automate or script script in order to automate work that we do workflows and also do fundamental data science what's intriguing about both of these environments as they are written in Python and they open us to us opportunities for leveraging the whole Python open source ecosystem with lots and lots of science people working away in their own worlds are chess is engineered to be open and interoperable and we do this in three ways first by supporting all the leading open standards and formats but second by engineering direct connections between our platform and many of the other platforms like the Adobe cloud or like the Autodesk relationship and dozens of others third we design into the core platform an open architecture so it's open data open api's open source components integration with open source tools and an open architecture that can be extended easily by developers the success rate that we've had with this is really shocking I mean the evidence that this is a successful strategy to be open is is shown by the tens of thousands of situations where our tools are operating in heterogeneous environments around the world at last like to talk about our chess products these are the products actually that we manufacture and they are primarily one product Archie is yes four components and I'm going to show you a little bit about each of these components these are the tools that you actually work with all the time but they are continuously evolving these 1,200 engineers that work at s3 that's their that's their life is to evolve and make things better and by the way as I go through these I want you to note that the work that's going on as it relates to you because those engineers are all here I want you to take this opportunity to be with them you are the eyes and ears of our product and helping them direct their work is very powerful it's been part of the nature of this this relationship for 38 years we're gonna start with RTS Pro this is the professional GIS desktop and let me just note here that while our chests Pro is our main world of innovation we're going to continue supporting arcmap for years and years to come okay [Applause] in the winter we supported trove 2.1 s advanced by introducing lots of new improvements and this summer just a few days ago we released 2.2 in this likewise you can look through here lots of new improvements the ability to read BIM files for example or do 3d multipatch editing dynamically and what's coming on our radar here I want you to be aware of is complete 3d voxel 3d interpolation work parcel management support dimensions and lots of other cool things pro has a number of extensions and litigates sections visualization extensions and as I mentioned earlier a brand new extension called image analyst and this is extraordinary you'll you'll look at it and love it I know the other one is this one called locate XD funny name but it's for unstructured test text integration the second pillar of our platform is ArcGIS online and this is a complete mapping and location intelligence platform it has nearly 6 million subscribers at the moment this is growing very rapidly it's a very vibrant part of our organization we make over a billion maps a day on this platform all over the world and here again we've made lots of improvements the team here is working very hard easier search smart mapping in 3d well you can look at the at the list here last week we received no notice from our federal government about a major security authorization test that we passed which is the FedRAMP authorization this it's very valuable for federal customers because it means we've passed the test for secure management of data but for the rest of you it should send a message of the strength of this this environment we're all worried about in the world of craziness that we live in about security of our information so it's a it's a big thing for us in the future coming are lots of new things here including the ability to store and manage imagery in ArcGIS online and more IOT integration and the ability to do cross organization collaboration and lots of other things again and I invite you to visit with a team here because it's a it's a powerful and interesting team similarly the team for our chests Enterprise the third the third leg of the stool so to speak is all about data management and analytics and and server based mapping and here again we've made many improvements look down the list this summer's release includes one of my favorites which is something called sites this is a use of micro site as a micro site builder so you can build little focused web sites for different parts of your organization within your organization making it again easier and focused and last year you'll remember last summer I guess it was you asked for us to make available level one users free and enterprise and that was done in a winter yeah I just want you to remember that because speaking to our people and squeezing them well it works apparently we've also made it easier to install with Enterprise Builder new releases here integrate with DevOps tools and lots and lots of new things coming again you'll see in the fall in the winter the ArcGIS Enterprise Architecture for me is very interesting it's modular and massively scalable it means that I can deploy ArcGIS server and portal independently and at scale and also have extensions independently deployed at scales for imagery and and drill time and big data analytics and the little ArcGIS monitor allows me to monitor what's going on in my ecosystem and I realize many of you have one server not four thousand like Noah or six thousand like you know ups but still the architecture at least for me is interesting because we are going to have to scale what we do so the groundwork has been done this architecture also includes the ability to have distributed collaboration which means servers can be in multiple places with specialized datasets and we automatically replicate the guide to the content the little items that get stored in the portal so I can replicate these for not only inside the organization collaboration but also externally now to arcgis online and traveling with the web maps and traveling with the apps is also the related content this is very exciting to me i mean it's it makes me shiver i get so excited because it's the one of the keys to making collaboration at scale the kind of infrastructure for our planet work the fourth pillar in arcgis is our chest solutions and this is solution components we have a lot of people working on this these are industry specific apps and maps and tools that extend your basic enterprise systems and they're very popular I mean we've had a half a million downloads of this just in the last year and there are like 400 of these modules they are open source they're fully supported just like they're part of the platform and the best part of course is that they're free so you guys taking advantage of this I hope so at this conference we're announcing something new it's over on the right which is solution configurations and this is taking these basic solution building blocks and organizing them into pre-configured ready to deploy combinations or you might think of them as bundles that can be rapidly implemented by yourselves or by some of our business partners or by s3 itself they can help you now at this conference we are also introducing a whole new class of software products these products directly support focused workflows they're both separate but also integrated with GIS the first one we actually released last summer hub this is all about community engagement directly supporting the engagement of community engagement I guess and second in doors which is all about smart buildings and urban well I'm gonna tell you more about these in the next couple slides arcgis hubs been designed to transform the relationship between communities and the citizens that live there and there are dozens of communities now cities around the world that are organizing and leveraging their connections their stakeholder interactions with open data and policy initiatives community portals and performance dashboards engaging their citizens this is really interesting started here in Los Angeles initially it's now spreading around the world the second of these focused solution products is in doors shared with you the first time right now this is all about smart buildings and it's looking at the transactions for use and management of smart buildings like operations management asset management wayfinding for the people inside the buildings it's a complete indoor mapping and location system and the third perhaps for me the most ambitious the most exciting the most I think ultimately impactful is something called Archos Urban's and this I think will have the net effect speaking as a planner in landscape architect will have the net effect of revolutionising how we do City planning and design around the world it involves buildings plans indicators all the urban landscape information so what's next for all of us Ruiz products will be continued incremental software development and continuous development in the online environment lots of agendas here that we're taking on and again I invite you all to talk with our development team about how you want us to calibrate our work these are all active projects underway right now you
