Customer Success Stories – Here at GEO Jobe, we don’t just build on the ArcGIS platform and create awesome tools, like Admin Tools and Mapfolio etc…, our team also works with many ArcGIS Enterprise-scale customers, government agencies, and other organizations to support their ArcGIS-based solutions. Read more how GEO Jobe can support Enabling your Open Data.
Of interest, we’ve worked with Shelby County, Tennessee to help standup the County’s 911 Open Data Resource. Using ArcGIS Online, the 911 resource makes available, to both the public and developers, a number of useful data products including: emergency zones, road centerlines, address points, and more. With ArcGIS Open Data sites, you can make datasets like map features, CSV tables, or even file geodatabases available to organizations and the public. See http://gis.shelbycounty911.org/
GEO Jobe is prepared to work with and support Local Government agencies interested in getting involved with OpenData and standing up their own Open Data resource with ArcGIS Online. Contact us for more info on how to get started, and you can connect with our @raykendo on Twitter for more on this topic.
