Lots of organizations are looking for ways to improve their business processes and maximize the value of their GIS investments. But GIS professionals are often asked to do more without enough resources.

ArcGIS Workflow Manager can help. This scalable enterprise workflow management system enables employees to complete tasks and projects in a predictable, accurate, and timely manner.

While work management and productivity systems are not unique, Workflow Manager is different because it focuses on optimizing both GIS- and non-GIS-based processes to create seamless, end-to-end workflows that are synchronized across web, mobile, and desktop devices. Workflow Manager is also location aware, meaning it employs spatial analysis to report on work statuses and metrics.

Open data is experiencing a transformation similar to that of software. Databases that were locked in silos of singular use are now made available and accessible to anyone. This means that people from other departments, municipalities, businesses, and community groups can immediately reuse the data in their own work, providing better context for evaluating complex relationships, making important decisions, and measuring program outcomes. It also means that journalists can use it when researching and reporting on specific issues or trends. And all consumers of the data can provide feedback on data quality issues, possible corrections that need to made, and other potential improvements to the data.
