Autodesk and Esri Partnering to Advance Infrastructure Planning and Design

LAS VEGAS, November 15, 2017 /PRNewswire/ — Today, Autodesk, Inc. and Esri, Inc. have officially kicked off a groundbreaking collaboration aimed at bridging the gap between Building Information Modeling (BIM) and Geographic Information System (GIS) mapping technologies. This partnership between Autodesk and Esri seeks to empower a wide array of industries by enabling them to visualize complex datasets related to the built environment, natural landscapes, communities, and the intricate networks that connect everything. The collaboration represents a significant step forward in leveraging technology to address some of the most pressing challenges facing modern society. As Jack Dangermond, President of Esri, stated, "In designing projects today, it's crucial to think about the needs of future generations. By teaming up with Autodesk, we aim to secure sustainable resources for a growing population, minimize the environmental impact of human activities, optimize the use of our planet’s resources, and foster more resilient urban centers." For infrastructure managers worldwide, whether they are part of the public or private sector, this integration promises to streamline workflows significantly. Currently, there exists a fragmented approach when using BIM and GIS software independently, leading to inefficiencies in planning, constructing, and maintaining infrastructure assets. By enhancing the interoperability of both platforms, Autodesk and Esri anticipate substantial reductions in project timelines. Andrew Anagnost, CEO of Autodesk, expressed his excitement about this alliance: "Our mission is to empower industry professionals and city planners to create designs rooted in reality. This partnership will allow communities to develop interconnected, robust cities with a strong focus on sustainability." Both companies are committed to fostering deeper integrations between their tools so that professionals can leverage insights from both BIM and GIS data streams. Anticipated outcomes include faster approval processes due to improved stakeholder communication, more environmentally friendly designs thanks to enhanced project understanding, and reduced risks during construction phases through better material flow management and resource scheduling. John Kizior, Global Director of Project Technologies at AECOM, highlighted the potential impact of this partnership: "I am delighted to hear about the strategic collaboration between Autodesk and Esri. At AECOM, innovation is at our core, and I believe this partnership could yield innovative software solutions. The combined capabilities hold immense promise for transforming how information flows throughout the project lifecycle, ultimately benefiting our clients." With global urbanization set to expand by another 2.5 billion inhabitants over the next three decades—70% of whom will live in cities—the strain on existing infrastructure will only intensify. Meeting these demands requires innovative approaches across the entire infrastructure development process. The enhancements planned for Esri and Autodesk’s software suite represent a pivotal moment in shaping our collective future. This announcement was made by Andrew Anagnost and Jack Dangermond during Autodesk University 2017, held in Las Vegas, Nevada.
