GIS and CAD, CAD and GIS: there is no way to disconnect the two as essential in growing and managing the built environment.

It is super important; it is super exciting. If you look big-picture-wise where things are going, people are trying to manage and evolve the design of urban environments and infrastructure in more sustainable, reliable ways, where they can build a lot more things under the same kind of budget and constraints they have today

At Autodesk we see this as a fundamental capacity problem. City planners, and people trying to build a city or an infrastructure project that connects a city, they want to visualize the whole thing in context. They want to see the as-planned, the as-designed, and as-built state in a dynamic, intelligent, useful, and persistent city model.

Esri owns the planning, city-facing context view of what the whole city looks like and the associated data at that scale, and we own the content that shows up inside the models: the buildings, the roads—all of these things.

Esri and Autodesk were once considered competitors, but that didn’t make any sense at all because our core competencies were in completely different areas.
