GIS-Based Takeaways From the Esri 2024 User Conference

“Stay Mappy, San Diego!” was the phrase that greeted over 20,000 GIS professionals at the 2024 Esri User Conference, where ¾Åɫֱ²¥ was a bronze sponsor. In addition to several map puns and impressive GIS-based data visualizations, the Tyler team was on-site to capture the following key takeaways.

Takeaway 1: Governments Can Streamline Decision-Making For a Powerful, Unified Experience With GIS-Based Technology and Data Visualizations.

Picture this: you have several work orders to complete in a set period. You can look at a list of addresses and make your best guess of which to tackle first, or plot them on a map to better understand the urgency of the request, the proximity of the locations, and the most efficient route to take. The one that leads to a more streamlined process and is powered by GIS-based technology is likely the option your workforce and leadership would opt for. GIS experts the Esri User Conference championed how integrated solutions and the ability to visualize a workflow provide a more seamless process for government professionals and more satisfied residents.

Takeaway 2: All Areas of Government Can Benefit From GIS-Based Technology.

If you have a spatial data file to input, you can benefit from GIS-based technology. The professionals the Esri User Conference explored ways to empower decision-making across a variety of fields. Maps aren’t just for those working with land use; they can also be leveraged by school transportation professionals, public safety agencies, property assessors, recorders and clerks, asset management teams, and more. Examples explored at the conference include:

  • Connecting permitting and licensing solutions with assessment tools and records management to see the entire land development life cycle and create authoritative data for multiple departments.
  • Mapping out the most efficient routes for school buses to ensure students can quickly and safely make it to school on time.
  • Using spatial data to see the entire history of a parcel and review changes over time.
  • Grouping utility billing and asset management work orders together with GIS location technology.

GIS-based technology allows governments to visualize their data in a powerful way to understand how communities are impacted and how governments can more efficiently deploy their workforce. To learn more about .
