About the Company

Esri

Builds mapping software for governments and firms

Esri builds ArcGIS, the mapping and analysis software that governments, companies, and universities use to put their data on maps and study where and why things happen. In 1982, it released ARC/INFO, the first commercial geographic information system program, which ties places on a map to records in a database. Analysts make maps and run analyses in the ArcGIS Pro desktop app, teams share maps, dashboards, and field-survey apps through ArcGIS Online, and large agencies run ArcGIS Enterprise on their own servers. Customers pay for software licenses and subscriptions, and Esri also earns fees for consulting and training. Esri was founded in 1969 and is based in Redlands, California.
