Latest Esri Map Book Illustrates Broad Range of GIS Capabilities

  • Rating12345

Esri Map Book highlights the wide diversity of GIS applications in use today. From a detailed tourism map of the archaeological sites in Luxor, Egypt, to the scientific analysis of the iron and titanium concentrations on the moon, this year’s map book beautifully showcases the power and potential of geospatial analysis.

The full-color maps in this edition reflect how GIS is used to

  • Monitor and manage the environment.
  • Enhance the transparency and accountability of government.
  • Protect the health and security of communities.
  • Improve workflow efficiency for public and private entities.
  • Inform and engage citizens.

“Our map book this year represents a variety of contributors, from students and professionals just getting started to veteran ArcGIS users whose maps have appeared frequently in this publication,” says Jack Dangermond, Esri president. “The maps included affirm that GIS-based cartography conveys important information as no other medium can.”

Containing more than 100 maps, this edition clearly shows how GIS users contribute ever-increasing amounts of data and other resources to promote sustainable development and a more hopeful future. Each map is accompanied by a description of how it was produced, for what purpose, and by whom. Esri Map Book, Volume 26, is an important collection of maps for GIS users, cartographers, collectors, and map libraries.
