This week marked the end of the 2010 ESRI Worldwide Business Partner Conference (BPC) and the 2010 ESRI Developer Summit at Palm Springs, California which was host to the largest gathering of GIS developers.

The BPC set the tone for the Developer Summit by showcasing features of the upcoming release of the ArcGIS product suite – ArcGIS 10. For those of us who couldn’t get to attend and see the demos first hand, the Plenary Session videos have been made available for viewing which cover the following topics:

ArcGIS.com
Desktop Usability
Server and Web Clients
Mobile Platforms
Editing Improvements
Imagery Platform

ArcGIS Server on Amazon

What started off as an overview of ArcGIS 10 during the BPC was picked up at the Developer Summit with demonstrations delving more into the new features and enhancements that ArcGIS 10 is going to support. ESRI has been quick to upload the Plenary demos which cover the following topics:

Geoprocessing is an important feature of any GIS software application. If the application being talked about is ArcGIS, then there are numerous geoprocessing functions that come in-built with the application. One of the simpler ways of accessing these functions is through the ArcToolbox, which is a collection of several of these features packaged into a single utility.

Here’s the link to a podcast on “What is ArcToolbox ?” describing what it is, its features and how it fits into our GIS workflow.

It feels good to be back at blogging, with lots of new thoughts to share and plenty of time at hand. This post after a year’s break is on the mashup capabilities that are coming in-built with ESRI’s ArcGIS 9.3 version.

ESRI demonstrated these mashup capabilities at the Where 2.0 conference in Burlingame, California between 13th and 14th May,2008. ArcGIS 9.3 has been included with JavaScript APIs that provide end users with the ability to integrate GIS based web-services from ArcGIS Server with other web content.

Here’s the link to the press release from ESRI on this new feature http://www.esri.com/news/releases/08_2qtr/arcgis9_3_mashup.html.
