That’s right!  More AI.  This time it’s here to help our users find answers to many of their technical questions.  The technical support team created this chatbot to allow you to ask conversation questions to help initially guide them in the right direction, providing answers and links to Esri content including documentation and blogs.  It’s now available on the Esri website or via the Esri Support App.  And yes, it’s available to both our French and English users (40 languages in fact).  It may not solve everything difficult problem, but this is a fantastic tool to get your discovery journey started.   Inside the Arc - Feature interview that takes our audience inside an Esri product or capability We use Microsoft 365 all the time as a part of our daily workflows: from building spreadsheets in Excel, managing content with SharePoint, and collaborating with our co-workers on Teams. But did you know you can bring these business apps to life by adding interactive maps? Incorporating ArcGIS intelligence inside Microsoft has never been simpler. To tell us more about how to connect Microsoft software with Esri’s mapping capabilities, we are joined by our colleague Mike Gregotski. He’s plugged into the world of ArcGIS for Microsoft 365. The GeoGeeks - Rotation of Esri Canada panelists share what's new in ArcGIS technology Recently Esri introduced the ArcGIS Web Editor, a web-based tool enabling GIS data editing and maintenance in a simple-to-use interface. Performing common spatial and attribute edits through a browser opens new doors as you can create and modify your authoritative data from anywhere.

Brandon Wheatley, our ArcGIS Online GeoGeek, gives us an overview of this editing app, including some new features coming to the editor in upcoming releases.   M versus M - Our hosts quiz each other about all things ArcGIS and GIS Maggie leads this edition of the geography game show with the most.  And this time she reflects on her recent vacation to Ireland!  She bombards Mark with questions about filming locations for movies and TV shows on the Emerald Isle.  Of course, Mark has no clue about anything Irish or entertainment, but he does attempt to guess as best he can.   For more information Visit our website See our full interviews and GeoSnaps on the Esri Canada YouTube channel  Stay up-to-speed on products and developments affecting you in our blog, Getting Technical  Have a podcast idea?
