Open Data

ArcGIS enables interoperability of all GIS data types, formats, and specifications of data. Users can bring vector and raster data into and out of the system in their format of choice. Many organizations also use ArcGIS to share and work with open data so they can communicate effectively, meet mandated transparency requirements, and enable greater insights. Esri includes open data capabilities at no cost in ArcGIS Online and ArcGIS Hub.

Supporting your data formats

Data interoperability ensures that you can access and store GIS data types in the formats you already use. ArcGIS works directly with the most common data sources, widely implements open standard formats, and provides the ArcGIS Data Interoperability extension for unique transformation needs.

Geospatial features
ArcGIS supports all the common vector data types and formats to serve up points, lines, and polygons, such as the following:

Tabular
ArcGIS can expose the spatial data hidden in your tabular data such as the following:

Imagery, EO, and 3D
ArcGIS apps and servers directly support more than 200 raster and 3D data formats, types, and sensors like the following:

Web and real time
ArcGIS Enterprise and ArcGIS Online support the ingest of many real-time data feeds, sensors, and streams:
