Search and discover

Interactively search available images and video from an enterprise web service. Set search settings, preview imagery, view metadata, and queue images or videos for further use. Search by name, date, location, time, and metadata or by map extent or area of interest. Save and easily get back to search queries.

Access imagery over the web

You can access images and video over the web from anywhere, making it easier to perform remote inspection workflows, through Web Map Services, Web Map Tile Services, Tile Layers, Tiled Image Layers, Map Image Layers, and Video layers. What was traditionally done on-site can now be done online with a larger set of service types to save time and expenses.

Ready-to-use workflows

Excalibur projects allow you to organize imagery, customize tools, and add instructions needed to a ready-to-use imagery analysis workflow. You can edit a project to add or remove capabilities at any time and determine which tools are available in the Tool Panel. Add observation layers to a project and include a web map with geospatial reference layers to help provide context.

Analyze in real time

Annotate, measure, and count objects or collect observations on images and videos to get information that supports effective decision-making. Use built-in tools to perform remote inspections on utility networks or report on security vulnerabilities. Automatically detect changes in objects over time by comparing two or more images. Make multiple edits simultaneously and save them to the portal for later use.

Export and share

Add value to briefings with exported images. Then, share them with key stakeholders to help them make informed decisions based on insights from imagery as a data source. Use other ArcGIS apps and solutions in tandem to create reports, dashboards, interactive briefing materials, and dynamic analysis layers.

Take screenshots to analyze and export

Use the Capture Video Frame tool to take a screenshot of a single frame in a video and add it to the map panel. Or simply export your current view as a report or single image to use in presentations or apps.

How it works

Access imagery

Search for and quickly access imagery through a variety of service types, including Web Map Services, Web Map Tile Services, Tile Layers, Tiled Image Layers, Map Image Layers, and Video layers.
Perform image interpretation

Create markups and apply geoenriched enhancements. Use the Swipe tool to compare two image layers, or the flicker tool to flip through changes frame by frame. Use the detect change tool to track object changes.
Share results

Create reports or dashboards to monitor product metrics with your imagery analysis or share it as dynamic imagery layers in other ArcGIS applications.
