Powerful Applications
ArcGIS for Desktop includes two main applications for mapping, editing, and analysis.

ArcMap
ArcMap is the leading, traditional GIS authoring, editing, and
geoprocessing application that allows you to create beautiful
maps, edit and manage spatial data, and perform the full
spectrum of analyses needed to turn your raw data into valuable
information.

ArcGIS Pro
ArcGIS Pro is a new, 64-bit application that has a contextual
interface and project-centric workflow. It helps you quickly get
your most common GIS tasks done, and then easily package up
your projects and deliver them to the rest of your organization.

Start Geocoding
From simple data analysis to business and customer
management, there is a wide range of applications for which
geocoding can be used. With geocoded addresses, you can
display the address locations and see patterns within the
information.

Access Advanced Imagery


There are many ways you can work with image data (raster data)
in ArcGIS for Desktop. You can use it as a background
(basemap) to analyze other data layers, apply different types of
specifications to the image dataset, or use it as part of the
analysis.

Give Your Clients What They Need


Your stakeholders only want to see the information they need to
do their job. The sharing and collaboration tools that come with
ArcGIS for Desktop help you publish your projects via simple,
focused apps.
