ArcGISSM Online gives you a cloud-based framework for using, sharing, and organizing GIS content and capabilities. This framework supports collaboration between different groups or communities, regardless of the client application being used. Whether you are using ArcGIS Desktop, a mobile device, or a browser-based application, or if you are a developer creating a Web mapping application, you can quickly get to basemaps, layers, applications and data published by ESRI and the user community from within your application.
