Overview of ArcGIS and ArcGIS Online Capabilities

NASA’s Enterprise Agreement (EA) with Esri provides licensing and access to a wide range of these commercial GIS capabilities.  This talk will provide a brief overview of the GIS capabilities available, the non-NASA data that is available and a description of the audience that can be reached through these tools.  NASA’s current uses will be summarized (including those not on this planet) and several examples demonstrated.
