'We are honored to be chosen as one of the first members in GEO's new membership category,' said Jack Dangermond,
Esri founder and president.
The acquisition will also provide users of
Esri's ArcGIS platform with imbedded IPS location services to support indoor mapping and analysis.
Airspace Link has been selected to join the
Esri Startup Program, a coveted three-year program that helps emerging business partners bring new and innovative products to
Esri customers.
"The
ESRI report compounds a study which was carried out by Dublin City University found nearly two-thirds believed the Leaving Cert did not adequately teach them how to think independently."
Jack Dangermond disputes this analysis, saying they aren't billionaires because
Esri isn't run as a financial entity and shouldn't be valued as one.
Under the agreement,
Esri software geo enables the World Bank's survey solutions software, allowing staff to improve accuracy and quicken the kinds of data collection, analysis, and decision-making that countries need to address the most urgent development challenges.
Esri, the global market leader in geographic information system (GIS) software, offers the most powerful mapping and spatial analytics technology available.
