We’re delighted to introduce the Esri Canada Blog: a forum we’ve created to offer you a uniquely Canadian perspective on all things GIS. Our goal is to provide you with the latest information on topics that matter to you while creating conversation around areas of interest.
Consider this a one-stop resource to see how others are using GIS, learn about new products and developments, read what’s new in SDI across Canada and the globe, keep abreast of the Community Map of Canada Program, and much more. Posts will be authored by experts within our organization.
