ArcExplorer 2 Is Now Available
Redlands, California-ESRI, the world leader in geographic information system (GIS)
software, announced today that the latest Windows version of its popular GIS data viewer
can now be downloaded for free from ESRI’s Web site at www.esri.com/arcexplorer.
One of the greatest advantages of ArcExplorer 2 is its support for a wide range of
image formats such as MrSID, GeoTIFF, GIF, NITF, SVF, CRP, CIB, ADRG, and many
others. In addition, ArcExplorer 2 now offers support for VPF military format and CAD
formats (DGN, DXF, and DWG), and it can be used with ArcSDE 8.0.2, the newest
version of ESRI’s Spatial Database Engine. Another significant feature of ArcExplorer 2
is that it includes powerful address matching functions based on ESRI’s MapObjects 2
geocoder. All of these new capabilities are covered in the updated online help that comes
with ArcExplorer 2.
“This new release of ArcExplorer extends the functionality of what is already one of
the most popular GIS applications in the world,” says Bernie Szukalski, ESRI’s product
manager for ArcExplorer. “We have enhanced the software to make it even more useful.”
ArcExplorer is an easy and cost-effective tool for simple viewing of GIS data sets.
With more than a million copies in use today, ArcExplorer is used for a variety of
display, query, and data retrieval applications. One of its greatest benefits is that software
publishers can freely distribute ArcExplorer with their data CDs, providing users with an
easy way to view and query data effectively.
ArcExplorer 2 works with Windows 98 or higher and Windows NT 4 or higher. For
more information, visit ESRI’s Web site at www.esri.com/arcexplorer.
