Skytec and Esri: Delivering Invaluable Insights Around the Globe
In geospatial mapping and the many industries that rely on it, Esri and its ArcGIS software are household names. For Skytec, working as a Silver-level Esri partner demonstrates the company’s ability to deliver valuable insights to clients on the leading GIS platform.
Since Skytec’s inception in 2015, the company has been an Esri partner, most recently as a Silver-level partner, a designation that ensures clients have access to Esri’s dynamic platform. Skytec’s team members bring decades of experience working with Esri and ArcGIS.
Skytec leaders use Esri for analysis and delivering client solutions and data, including satellite monitoring and mapping and UAS mapping and remote sensing. Skytec’s global monitoring SaaS tool, Ranger, relies on Esri to deliver change detection and mapping solutions in a convenient platform for ongoing monitoring needs.
“As the industry leader in GIS, most governmental organizations, engineering firms, consultants, forestry organizations and beyond already use Esri,” says Andy Carroll, CTO and co-founder of Skytec. “By delivering Skytec’s solutions on that platform, we’re connecting with a known, valuable resource that has a wealth of global data, including real-time fire detection, live weather, and land cover data.”
As a living atlas, Esri’s platform and data provide users with a dynamic mapping resource for the entire planet.
Esri’s Global Perspective and Presence
Esri has supported customers with geographic science and geospatial analytics since its founding in 1969, according to the company. Esri remains the global leader in mapping and spatial analytics software, location intelligence, and mapping.
According to Esri, its location-based technology has far-reaching benefits that connect businesses, national government agencies, cities and local governments, and nonprofits. The company counts more than 300K organizations as users, including 30K local governments and cities, all 50 U.S. states and 12K universities.
Leaders around the globe use Esri technology to make data-driven decisions. Similarly, Esri as an organization demonstrates a commitment to solving the world’s problems, including climate change, supply chain resilience, public health, and social equity.
As geospatial mapping technology advances, companies like Esri and its many partners can bring together geographic information from many sources that can describe everything happening around the planet, from information on natural systems, populations and economies, and more.
“As a Silver-level Esri Partner, Skytec offers a distinct advantage to leverage a platform most of our clients are already on,” says Bill Rogers, CEO and cofounder of Skytec. “The ease of use and ease of integrating our products and offerings into an existing platform with Esri gives an explosive value to clients as soon as we flip the switch.”
Gain the power of Esri with Ranger.
Access to Esri isn’t just for enterprise-level businesses. Many nonprofits can gain access to Esri through various grant initiatives. Skytec clients engaged with the Ranger platform can become Esri subscribers for a nominal fee, delivering access to ArcGIS Pro and other tools to transform an organization’s ability to understand, visualize, and use data insights.
“Our Ranger subscribers can gain access to Esri at a low cost and have a lot of power at their fingertips,” Rogers says. “Esri has a sharp focus on nonprofit and conservation work. This special pricing for nonprofit and conservation clients delivers incredible value and can empower smaller organizations with incredible capabilities.”
