REDLANDS, Calif. — (BUSINESS WIRE) — September 27, 2017Esri, the world leader in spatial analytics, today announced new ArcGIS Maps for Power BI capabilities. With a Plus subscription, businesses seeking deeper location-based insights into their data will have access to global demographics, expanded data mapping, and more content from Esri’s Living Atlas of the World—an authoritative collection of ready-to-use geographic information.

“80 percent of the data that businesses deal with on a day-to-day basis has a location component. The new Plus subscription to ArcGIS Maps for Microsoft Power BI looks to shine a light on that location data with new spatial analytics capabilities," said Dirk Gorter, Esri director of product management.

Using integrated data and location intelligence from Esri’s ArcGIS platform, Power BI enables business and data analysts to identify patterns in information that geography helps reveal.

  • Premium global demographic data (Users with free subscriptions can access US demographics.)
  • Verified, curated, ready-to-use authoritative data
  • 12 basemaps including satellite imagery, oceans, and terrain
  • The ability to plot up to one million points on a map each month
