When I first explored ArcGIS Earth, I wasn’t expecting much—it’s a free tool from Esri that looks like a Google Earth clone. But after using it for a while, I’ve come to appreciate its unique capabilities, even if it’s not perfect. ArcGIS Earth is surprisingly good at allowing users to quickly visualize and interact with spatial data in 2D and 3D. It supports a variety of formats, including KML, shapefiles, and imagery, making it versatile for simple GIS viewing needs.
