Mapping Technology Giant Esri is integrating the Microsoft Azure Openai Service on its ARCGIS flags of Geographic Information Systems products, announced the company at its annual users conference in San Diego on July 14.
Collaboration allows ESRI professional users to use artificial intelligence attendees to simplify work with geoschial data, maps and analysis. The natural language interactions of the IA will also allow users to better understand complex spatial problems and even generate code to solve them.
“In engineering, applying the concepts of geographical knowledge to make the world a better place is more powerful than ever,” said Esri’s CEO, Jack Dangermond, in his initial plenary speech on July 14.
“Ai Agents is a new age where your work will move more and faster. The world not only needs this AI infrastructure, but your work transforms the way we understand, collaborate and solve problems.”
ESRI also announced that Arcgis will allow Gaussian splats to import as a new layer type at the end of this year. The Gaussians spling is a volumetric representation technique that can directly represent volume data by means of a series of ellipsoid forms, without turning it into a set of surface or lines data.
Enter Gaussian splats in a program like Argis Pro, which already has reference and support data, such as real-time height changes, allows them to obtain faster than “ more heavy ” data sets, such as points or meshes in global and local scenes, and can be integrated faster into other data.
Conference attendees were traveled by this new process by ESRI’s executives, Thomas Zwölfer and Konstantin Hoppe, from the company’s research and development center in Stuttgart, Germany. Zwolfer and Hoppe showed images of Drone captured from the construction site of the new Stuttgart main station, an amount of $ 40 million A project that consists of converting the terminal station existing into a completely underground railway center.
Zwolfer showed that Drone’s data was presented as Splat Gaussià ready to use them. The couple also showed new tools for detecting and mapping 3D features of these maps, including steel beams, wooden panels and other materials, all taken from drones or satellite Images of the place.
“Taking good details prepares us for the monitoring of autonomous assets,” Hoppe said.
As part of Microsoft Expanded’s collaboration, ESRI announced that Arcgis for Microsoft teams now has a declarative agent for Microsoft 365 Copilot, which provides search and discovery of maps, applications and location data directly authorized within the Microsoft, Microsoft Outlook and Microsoft 365 portals teams.
One of the new attendees of the Copilot integration was created by creating code for a search operation for a civil construction project based on a conversation that the operator had with the Copilot Chatbot on a chat board. It was shown that the AI tools of Geo-Direction detected holes for the maintenance of the Department of Transport based on flights and photos of Drone in their database, a process that could bring humans in trucks for several days to identify and report.
“Democratizing geoschial comprehension, we are eliminating barriers and seizes users to unlock all the potential of location intelligence.” said Jay Theodore, technology director of the ESRI for Ia and Enterprise Technologies. “This collaboration represents an important milestone in our journey to make spatial analysis more accessible and shocking for organizations of all sizes,”
On the BIM Front, Esri introduced an expanded reality viewer that offered users an XR environment for all arcgis products. Two people were shown to explore all buildings in Wellington, New Zealand, through a table in view of the viewer. The immersive environment allowed them to work together on planning decisions, such as selecting the site with information such as the lines of failures activated and deactivated of an arc -based map. When it was ready, a BIM model was introduced directly from what was built directly to the XR spectator. Viewer XR is a autodesk technology contributed since ESRI’s collaboration with Giant BIM after his Acquisition of the savage In 2022.
“Our world needs a new approach that integrates our collective knowledge and creates a better understanding,” Dangermond told attendees.
