ArcGIS Online

Enterprise GIS and IT Procurement and Licensing Solutions (ITPALS) jointly manage the university's instance of ArcGIS Online. ArcGIS Online is a cloud-based geospatial content management system that allows users to perform a number of cartographic and analytical functions entirely on the web. ArcGIS Online is best suited to more lightweight use cases, such as class projects, teaching GIS concepts, and sharing research documents. To learn more about ArcGIS Online please visit our ArcGIS Service Catalog item.

Licensing for several other ESRI products, including ArcGIS Pro and ArcGIS desktop, is available from ITPALS for teaching and research purposes. Get more information on the ITPALS website, or you can request a consultation with Enterprise GIS to discuss your needs.
