The Spatial Viewer is an Esri-based complete hosted cloud-based GIS tool, that empowers Indigenous communities to fully realize the value of their spatial data, conduct queries and analysis, increase their technical capacity, and enable them to access the information necessary to improve their decision-making ability as related to the many interests in their region.
The Spatial Viewer provides the core geospatial foundation of GIS viewing, editing, management, reporting, exporting, querying, and analysis, and is built to include several external data sources.
