Autodesk and Esri Partnering to Advance Infrastructure Planning and Design

LAS VEGAS, Nov. 15, 2017 /PRNewswire/ — In a groundbreaking move, Autodesk and Esri have announced a strategic partnership aimed at bridging the gap between Building Information Modeling (BIM) and Geographic Information Systems (GIS). This collaboration seeks to empower industries worldwide by offering a more comprehensive view of the built and natural environments, helping stakeholders make better-informed decisions through integrated data visualization. The partnership brings together two industry leaders in digital design and spatial analysis. By combining BIM’s detailed construction data with GIS’s geographic context, the goal is to create a more connected and sustainable infrastructure. This integration will allow professionals to plan, design, and manage projects with greater accuracy and efficiency. Jack Dangermond, President of Esri, emphasized the importance of this collaboration: “By working with Autodesk, we can help ensure that future generations inherit a world where resources are used responsibly, cities are resilient, and the environment is protected. This partnership is all about creating long-term value for communities.” Andrew Anagnost, CEO of Autodesk, added, “This partnership allows us to bring the power of BIM and GIS together, enabling our customers to build anything, anywhere. It’s about designing in the real world, not just on a screen. With this collaboration, we’re giving planners and engineers the tools they need to build smarter, more sustainable cities.” For infrastructure owners—both public and private—this integration promises to streamline workflows, reduce costs, and improve project outcomes. The seamless exchange of data between BIM and GIS systems will lead to faster decision-making, better stakeholder engagement, and more efficient use of resources throughout the entire project lifecycle. John Kizior, Global Director of Project Technologies at AECOM, expressed enthusiasm about the partnership: “This collaboration has the potential to unlock new possibilities for our clients. By combining BIM and GIS, we can deliver more connected, resilient infrastructure that meets the needs of today and tomorrow.” With the global population expected to grow by 2.5 billion over the next 30 years, and 70% of these people living in urban areas, the pressure on existing infrastructure is immense. The projected annual infrastructure investment needed is $3.3 trillion, making it crucial for governments and companies to find smarter, more efficient ways to build and maintain infrastructure. Autodesk and Esri’s partnership aims to transform how infrastructure is designed, built, and managed. By integrating their technologies, they are paving the way for a future where cities are more sustainable, resilient, and connected. The announcement was made during Autodesk University 2017 in Las Vegas, where both companies showcased their shared vision for the future of design and planning.
