Summary:

The City's GIS systems are built on the Environmental Systems Research Institute, Inc. (Esri) software platform. This platform is used to create the geospatial layers to document and map the City's assets and other points of interest. The Enterprise License Agreement (ELA) provides the licensing and support needed to maintain the GIS systems and the ability to deliver maps and other resources to the City's websites for citizens and staff, as well as other City applications.

 

Esri, as owner and manufacturer, is the sole source provider of all U.S. domestic Small Municipal and County Government Enterprise License Agreements (ELA). The Small Municipal and County Government ELA is a bundled package of term limited software licenses and maintenance that includes the right to copy. 

 

Esri is the only source that can grant a right to copy and deploy Enterprise Software within our organization. Also, domestically, Esri is the only source of maintenance (updates and technical support) for all Esri software.
