Web GIS has become a ubiquitous and powerful platform for data sharing and information access. Over the past decades, technology has shifted from desktops, to servers, to web, then mobile, and now is time for another paradigm shift: voice. Geographic information can now be integrated with emerging devices for voice and chat interfaces that provide quick and easy access by anyone, anywhere. Additionally, 70% of U.S. adults use social media regularly and 77% own a smartphone. So, we need to consider new experiences for accessing our GIS.
In this demo theater, we'll show how you can start building your own chatbots and voice interfaces that integrate directly with ArcGIS. Using Sonar, an open- source library developed by Esri, you can explore how to make your information accessible through these new, ubiquitous technologies.
