Applied Information accepted into Esri Partner Network. Aug 13, 2026, 09:00 ET Partnership expands GIS integration capabilities for Glance(R) transportation infrastructure management platform ALPHARETTA, Ga., Aug. 13, 2026 /PRNewswire/ - Applied Information, Inc., North America's leading provider of intelligent transportation infrastructure technology, announced it has been accepted into the Esri Partner Network, strengthening the company's ability to integrate advanced geographic information system (GIS) capabilities into its Glance(R) transportation management platform. Esri is the global leader in GIS software, location intelligence, and mapping technology. Applied Information's Glance(R) platform enables transportation and public safety agencies to remotely monitor and manage traffic signals, connected vehicle infrastructure, school zone safety systems, emergency vehicle preemption, transit signal priority, and other Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) assets from a centralized cloud-based platform. The partnership will enable Applied Information to further expand GIS integration, spatial data visualization, and mapping capabilities for transportation and public safety agencies using Glance. Partnership Supports Integration with Government GIS Workflows The Esri Partner Network acceptance follows a comprehensive evaluation process that included technical reviews, product alignment assessments, and strategic business discussions focused on how Applied Information's solutions complement Esri's GIS ecosystem for government, transportation, and public safety agencies. "Acceptance into the Esri Partner Network validates the work our team has done to integrate GIS capabilities into the Glance platform," said Bryan Mulligan, President of Applied Information. "Transportation and public safety agencies increasingly rely on spatial intelligence to manage infrastructure, improve operational awareness, coordinate emergency response activities, and support connected vehicle deployments. Working with Esri will help us provide customers with additional tools to visualize, manage, and analyze transportation infrastructure data more effectively." "Many of our customers already use GIS technology extensively across transportation, fire, emergency management, and other government operations," said Alex Temes, Director of GIS & Data. "This partnership allows us to better align Glance with the mapping and spatial tools agencies are already familiar with, while expanding visibility into transportation infrastructure, emergency response operations, and connected transportation technologies." Glance Platform to Advance Spatial Intelligence and Connected Transportation Applications Applied Information's Glance platform already incorporates mapping and real-time visualization tools to help agencies monitor and control traffic infrastructure remotely from smartphones, tablets, and desktop devices. Through the Esri partnership, Applied Information expects to expand interoperability with GIS layers and geospatial workflows commonly used by transportation departments, fire and EMS agencies, emergency management organizations, and local governments. Potential applications include enhanced coverage mapping for connected vehicle systems, improved visualization of transportation and public safety assets, emergency vehicle response and coverage analysis, easier management of GIS-based infrastructure data layers, and integration opportunities with Esri's broader geospatial analytics environment. Esri technology is widely used by government agencies throughout North America, including transportation departments, municipalities, public safety agencies, and emergency management organizations. Applied Information believes the partnership will help accelerate the use of connected transportation technologies and spatial intelligence tools within GIS-driven operational environments. The partnership also provides Applied Information with access to Esri developer resources, technical collaboration opportunities, and participation in Esri events and partner initiatives focused on transportation, public safety, and smart city innovation.

Overture Maps data as Parquet feature layers (Early Access). By Steven Moore You may have heard the recent announcement of a new layer type released in Beta in the June 2026 ArcGIS Online release, the Parquet feature layer. This new layer is ideal for large read-only datasets such as the ones hosted by the Overture Maps Foundation. Environmental Systems Research Institute, Inc. is excited to announce several new Early Access Parquet feature layers created from Overture data using ArcGIS Data Pipelines. The Overture Maps Foundation was founded in December 2022 by several companies with the same goal: to create reliable, user-friendly, and interoperable open map data that supports both current and future map products. Esri shares this vision and has been a member since shortly after the project was publicly announced. Overture generates monthly releases of reference datasets such as buildings, roads, POIs and more, and makes them accessible through open AWS s3 or Microsoft Azure endpoints. The data within Overture is sourced from a wide variety of open sources including OpenStreetMap, Esri Community Maps, Microsoft, Meta and many more. The size and cloud-hosted nature of Overture data makes it an ideal candidate for creating Parquet feature layers. For its initial set of Early Access content Environmental Systems Research Institute, Inc. is sharing the following eight web maps through the Overture Parquet Layers group: addresses, railways, infrastructure points/lines/polygons, places, major cities and division areas. Environmental Systems Research Institute, Inc. expect to expand on the web maps shared through this group as development on Parquet feature layers continues. For now, properties like symbology and popup configuration cannot be stored within the Parquet feature layer itself, therefore Environmental Systems Research Institute, Inc. recommend that you use these web maps which contain pre-configured copies of the actual Parquet layers. While there are some Beta limitations, basic functionality like filtering, labeling and modifying symbology are supported. During this Early Access period Environmental Systems Research Institute, Inc. is very interested in hearing feedback from its users on this content so Environmental Systems Research Institute, Inc. can improve and expand on the offering. Feel free to leave comments on the web map items shared in the Overture Parquet Layers group or email [email protected]. Also stay tuned for an upcoming blog outlining how these layers were created so you can replicate the workflow for your priority layers and AOIs. announcements arcgis online openstreetmap (osm) overture maps foundation arcgis living atlas arcgis online Steven Moore Steve Moore is a GIS Engineer working on the Living Atlas team.
