5 Things on Friday

5 Things on Friday

Well, here we are at the end of June already... dang, where did that month go?? This week there's definitely not shortage of interesting material to share with you, in fact, sharing only 5 tips really doesn't do justice to everything happening in the ArcGIS ecosystem right now. And so, I hope you find at least one useful tip here, and as always, I encourage you comments, questions, and feedback - in particular, I'd love to get some feedback and your thoughts on the announcement of the new User Types for ArcGIS. Have an awesome week-end to all.

#1 Introducing Updated User Types for ArcGIS

new user types - With the June 2024 update to ArcGIS Online, Esri updated ArcGIS user types—which provide the primary way to license and securely access the capabilities of ArcGIS

This announcement is a huge step in the evolution of licensing of ArcGIS technology. The updated role-based user types extend capabilities, simplify administration, and allow you to scale as your organization’s needs grow. The updated user types will be available in ArcGIS Online with the June 2024 update and in ArcGIS Enterprise upon upgrading to version 11.4 (expected November 2024) and later versions. Updates include:

  • Expanded capabilities that align to roles in your organization
  • Comprehensive access to ArcGIS capabilities across multiple products on desktop, web, and mobile devices
  • Streamlined user type administration

Be sure to check out the new User Types page and consult the comparison matrix!

Also, see this article from the most recent ArcNews titled "Simplifying How Users Access ArcGIS"


#2 UC24 Agenda Builder

UC Event Map

Are you heading to EsriUC2024? If so, I urge you to download the event app for your mobile (see Android & iTunes stores) and use the online agenda builder to plan your week. Set aside some time because you'll have to select from over 700 technology sessions, hands on labs, panel discussions, SIGs and more! See https://uc2024.esri.com/flow/esri/24uc/eventportal/page/detailed-agenda

To assist you with developing your schedule, a number of Esri thought leaders and industry professionals have created and shared UC industry and topic fliers on the Esri Community. These have curated lists of sessions that you will want to consider. Be sure to take advantage of these! See all the UC Fliers HERE

IF you need a map of the conference facilities we have a map of the Expo Hall HERE, and you can take advantage of the EsriUC Event Map (WMS) HERE


#3 Kick of UC Week at the GIS Manager's Summit

GIS Manager's Summit

I can't stress enough how valuable this pre-conference summit is going to be. Join several hundred GIS managers from around the World on July 14 at the FREE, day-long summit and hone your skills as a manager or would-be GIS manager, meet the Esri teams that support GIS managers, and enjoy some valuable networking. Learn more and register for the Summit HERE - added bonus, see also this GIS Manager's LinkedIn group.


#4 Esri Blogs, More Blogs, Loads of Blogs!

ArcGIS Blogs

Are you a regular reader of the Esri blogs? These valuable materials are authored and shared by Esri insiders, visionaries, and technology professionals. This week alone there were almost 60 new blogs published! If you NEED to stay informed and up-to-speed on the latest GIS technologies and ArcGIS innovations, this is a must browse resource! Some of the gems you'll find this week include:

What's new in Story Maps, What's new in Dashboards, Introducing Business Analyst Assistant, GIS BIM&CAD at the EsriUC, What's new in ArcGIS Hub, and much more! Browse all the blogs HERE


#5 What's new in ArcGIS Online?

ArcGIS Online, June 2024

Finally, I HAVE to share details of this valuable resource that dives into all the goodies you'll find in the June 2024 update. Hint... you'll be able to learn more at ESRIUC! Recall, ArcGIS Online gives users the ability to make maps and apps to share your insights with your organization or the world. You can use it as a complete, cloud-based solution or to extend and complement the capabilities of ArcGIS Pro and ArcGIS Enterprise.

See What's new in ArcGIS Online HERE.

See also the What's new help doc


As you can see, there's LOTS of NEW announcements and updates to ArcGIS technology. You can browse all the "What's New" goodies HERE.

Will you be at EsriUC in a couple of weeks? If so, it would be great if you could drop a comment about what you are looking forward to this year. Cheers! PS: remember, the official hashtag for the conference is #EsriUC2024 - and if you would like to learn more about the Esri Partner Network (EPN) and becoming an Esri Business Partner, be sure to drop by the Partnering with Esri booth (co-located with the Startup Zone)
